“As for me, I am tormented with an everlasting itch for things remote. I love to sail forbidden seas, and land on barbarous coasts.”                   - Herman Melville, ‘Moby Dick’

I am a geographer and I love to travel to experience new places, new cultures, new ideas, new environments and new foods.  I really enjoy understanding our world more deeply through first-hand experiences.  On this page, I have recorded a few of my travel diaries to share with you.
