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.

Tibet, Everest And Rongbuk Wide View, 1998 - In the foreground of this photograph is Rongbuk Monastery. In the background is Mount Everest, the world's tallest mountain. I first arrived here in 1995 when I climbed Mount Everest. But I returned in 1998 with my Russian friends, including George Kotov, Sasha and Alexey, having driving 10,000 km from St. Petersburg. The following year George led me and others to drive to the highest point ever driven. We reached a point of (5726 meters, or 18787 feet) in Tibet. George drove the final hill.
