I'd like to ask something: What is with that "Please do not blow the horn! country is asleep!" thing? Is that like a license plate or something?

No, not a license plate (unfortunately..that would be hilarious). Trucks in Nepal have these sayings painted on them or hung from metal plates in the back of their trucks. A lot of them have names or paintings of gods and goddesses to get blessings for their travels. And some have these punny quotes just for the heck of it.

About Me

I grew up in a small town helping my parents on their farm. There I developed my love for nature and a desire to explore. Now I travel around the world photographing nature.

Interests

I love to travel. I have been everywhere, from Alaska to Zimbabwe. For every trip I keep a travel log of my adventures and capture the world as I see it.

Check out my photo gallery to get a glimpse into where I have been. And drop me a line if want to find out more. I always love to hear from fellow travelers.

Aspirations

I am looking for my next big adventure. There are still many places I want to visit and even more to which I want to return. The camera is charged up and my backpack is packed; drop me a line if you know where I should go next.
