You mentioned you went to Nepal, what was it like to experience the birthplace of Buddhism, Sam?

I was part of a large group of American and Canadian Buddhists and we made the pilgrimage to Lumbini. I really love the people of Nepal. I found it amusing that I was as exotic to them as they were to me. I was rather amazed at the extent of Western culture in Kathmandu. Many people spoke English and they were very curious about California.  In the villages it was more like I expected. Bright eyed curious children hiding behind mother’s skirts and great hospitality.

for "thank you" is it dhanyabhad or shukriya? can you say both?

Dhanyabad is Nepali for thank you. Shukriya is Hindi. So you can’t really say shukriya in Nepali.

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.
