This website illuminates my life and adventures. My longing for freedom has led me to over 2600 of the world’s 3978 provinces, to every country on earth and to the summit of the highest peak on each continent (thank heaven for good weather!). In my travels, I learned to respect the intelligence and ingenuity of people of all races and callings both past and present. Come see the world as I see it: as a peaceful place, full of nature and beauty. With the right spirit and intent, we can make our world a virtual Garden of Eden.

PNG, Jeff Shea In Waterfall, 1983 - This photograph was taken during the walk from Wabia to Top Camp deep in the forest of New Guinea's Highlands. One memorable feature of bush walking in New Guinea is water. There was plenty of it. There was a lot of rain, and you can drink from every stream without fear of sickness: at least in 1983 when this photograph was taken.
