Blog Posting

So some of you may be wondering what the purpose of this site could be.  The answer is fairly simple; it is a place for me to store all of the information about my trip around the world.  It started off as a blog that I was keeping while I was traveling.  That worked pretty well for the first few months of the trip but as my travels continued, and Internet access became harder to come by,  I pretty much abandoned the project.

Four years have passed now and I have been getting pretty nostalgic about my “once in a lifetime” adventure.  So I decided to resurrect the project and make it into more of a documentary of my journeys. This site, and all of the content which it contains, are for my own enjoyment.  If you find it interesting, terrific, if not.. there are many other places to visit on the web.  No one is forcing you to be here.

At some point in my life I hope to have the opportunity to do more traveling.  If that ever happens, I’m sure that there will be a new chapter added to this site.  In the time being, please feel free to wander through the site.  I enjoy sharing my experiences with everyone.  If you are planning a similar journey, feel free to contact me via email if you have any questions about what went “right” and what went “wrong” during my travels.  I’d be happy to hear from you.

One last note; my only regret is that I didn’t do this trip earlier in my life.  I was 46 when I finally pulled up roots and headed off into the unknown.  My advise, for what it is worth, is “don’t wait until it is too late, traveling abroad is easy with modern technology and less expensive than most people think“.  Go now and enjoy all of the incredible things that are out there waiting for you!!
