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.

Nepal, Judith, 1983 - I met Judith in the mountains of Nepal. We fell in love and traveled to India, then walked from Jaipur to Agra. She was an artist from Amsterdam, passionate about life and about me. This passion manifested itself in both lovemaking and arguments as well. She played a big role in my life during that time.
Of course this is an optical illusion. Jon Muir and I were coming back from Mootwingee National Park in New South Wales. The car is on a pole some distance from his back. Jon is one of Australia\\\'s greatest adventurers. Some time later, Jon did a solo, unassistaed walk across Australia.
Wild Horses, 2014
Mongolia, Tov Province (Aimag)
There are only about 300 wild horses remaining in the world, and they are all just outside of Ulan Bator, the capital of Mongolia.
To get this shot, I had to stalk the horses for hours. Finally, they became used to me. It seemed that they thought I was one of them.
