My Scholarship entry - The Lure of Kathmandu

Nepal | Sunday, November 23, 2014 | 5 photos


With an architecture degree in hand and an adventurous spirit I headed out on a career I thought would be fulfilling...well, that didn't work.
After living a life of boomer excess...I came to my senses!

So, with my adventurous spirit, luckily, still in hand my wife and I acted on our desires for adventure. She took a job as a teacher in the United Arab Emirates, and I, well, I took off to experience the real world of travel, design, and adventure I always really wanted!

Being in the UAE opened up an entirely new world of travel, after all, we were already half way around the world, so we took advantage of it and in our 1st two years abroad, have explored Sri Lanka, Nepal, the Greek Islands, Spain, Italy, Jordan, Oman, and Thailand, not to mention all the wonderful places in the UAE!

The more I travel, write, and photograph the places I've been, the more I realize its all about relationships. The relationship between the people and their cultures, the relationship between nature and man, and the relationship between my camera and its subject...the most exciting one of all.

A Peruvian adventure would be a wonderful next step! Please consider the diversity I bring to the table
