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.

Andaman Islands, Port Blair, 2002 - For much of my lifetime, the Andaman Islands were off limits to foreign travelers. Not surprisingly, these islands held some mystery for me. The town of Port Blair was not unusual, but it was satisfying to go there. I did, however, uncover information that was startling for me. For the first time in thirty years of traveling, I found a bona fide case of a group of people that had never been contacted. The inhabitants of North Sentinel Island have never been communicated with! (This was as of 2002.) North Sentinel Island, which is off the coast of South Andaman Island, is off limits to everyone.
