Bio

I want to ignite your sense of wonder and help you appreciate travelling and learning about the world. My photography covers art, architecture, culture and traditions that are relevant to travel. Our first international backpack trip was 10 months throughout EU.

Our 3-year round-the world trip took us to French Polynesia, Rarotonga, Fiji, New Zealand (4 mos.), Australia (4 mos.), Papua New Guinea, Singapore, Thailand (2 mos.), Philippines, Hong Kong, Taiwan, China (3 mos.), Japan (3 mos.), SW USA, TH, Burma, India (6 mos.), Nepal (2 mos.), Egypt, Israel, Greece and other countries in EU.

We have lived and travelled around the world, particularly in Europe (7 years), North and Central America. We have led courses and seminars on travel and culture appreciation at the University of Alberta, Grant MacEwan Univ. and the Edmonton Convention Centre. We plan all of our trip itineraries by computer.
