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.

Uzbekistan, Kebab, Pork Right, 2002 - For a Muslim to voluntarily eat pork is unheard of. But when we were in Samarkand, our driver, Gani, sat down and had pork kebab. He said that he ate pork occasionally, and yet in every other way was a devout Muslim. This is an illustration that if you travel enough, you will see people living in every possible way.
