“The best teacher is experience and not through someone’s distorted point of view”

― Jack Kerouac, On the Road

Taking in the World, One Journey at a Time

Life is all about the journey. The things you can discover when there is no predetermined destination can be the most amazing!

You will find here a collection of  photographs and stories from the roads I have traveled. I shared the moments of discovery with the people I have traveled with and I am happy to share them with you.

TRAVEL HISTORY

You can learn so much about people, places, and cultures when you travel, both home and abroad. I have had the luxury of being able to gain a greater insight on my place in this world.

The changes that I have seen in myself because of these experiences is astounding.

Cities

States

Countries

RECENT TRAVELS

I hope you enjoy the photos and information that I have put together as much as I did in experiencing them. Perhaps you will begin a new journey too.
