I've traveled 4,643 days (12.7 years) through 51 countries. I hope to travel 20 years before being recycled by the universe.
As a traveler I use a camera to outsource and idealize my memories. As some tours run 2-3 years, I cannot remember all the things seen and done from one week to the next, never mind describe the incredible landscapes and biodiversity. Video and pictures are a means to remember and share my travels.
