I am a true global nomad.
I have traveled over 100 countries and remain “on the road”, over 20 years since I first began. I LIVE FOR TRAVEL and enjoy all cultures; I’m addicted to the journey … and remain intrigued by this beautiful, cruel, crazy world.

words of wisdom
One may know the world without going out of doors.
One may see the Way of Heaven without looking through the windows.
The further one goes, the less one knows.”
> Laozi (570 BC – ?) founder of Taoism
