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.

Palestine, Jeff Shea Writing Love Letter While Floating In Dead Sea, 1984 - I was impressed by the fact I could float effortlessly in the Dead Sea because of the heavy salt content. I wrote a love letter laying on my back, supported only be the density of the salt water. Eighteen years later I went to Lake Asal in Djibouti, which is even saltier and provided even more buoyancy!
