Beautiful Sintra
Aka: Sometimes you just have to stop and smell the flowers. Because if you don’t you’re going to break your neck….and other precious body parts. I made it! After two flight cancelations because of Covid, I finally flew to Portugal to visit my younger sister Casey. I was looking forward to visit many of the… Continue reading

Celebration of Diwali in Udaipur
Me: Hey! I’m going to India! Friend: Really? Why in the world would you want to go there? Why in the world indeed. It’s full of interesting culture, delicious cuisine, incredibly beautiful cities, and the people are some of the friendliest I have met in my travels to 59 countries.

Bucket lists Like many others my age I have a bucket list. The Hotel Frontenac in Quebec City was on it. The phrase bucket list was made famous by the eponymous (God!

Maine will take your breath away
Our 2021 road trip to New England and the Maritimes in Canada was extra special after we sheltered in place for so long during Covid. Although we never got sick, it hit my Canadian partner and me in a different way. We were separated in 2020 for 7 months because of the border closure between… Continue reading

Patagonia Perfection
Did you ever have one of those days where nothing goes right? Fortunately, for me they don’t happen very often. I can’t remember one in recent history. But there are days where everything goes right. And when you’re a photographer it’s Nirvana. That day for me was at the estancia el Galpón del Glaciar near… Continue reading
