The world from 35,000 feet

Thanks for visiting my page! As an airline pilot, I am one of the rare people who love going to work. From the highest office in the world, the world is beautiful. Despite war and conflicts between countries, the view of the world - its mountains, ocean, desert and islands, is peaceful. It is almost a different world from the news and television.

Sometimes routes take us over the inhabitable mountains and desert. With the nearest civilization hundred of miles away, it is amazing to see a group of tents or huts, standing in the middle of nowhere, surviving without the support from the rest of the world.

My curiosity got the best of me and I am determine to feed it with my own first hand travel experience.

My work gave me a great oppunitunity to travel to many tourist hot-spots and big cities. However, it is my desire to see the different part of the world, the world that has not been flooded with tourist or altered to facilitate foreigners.

I hope the entries and photos will give you an insight of those countries that I've been to, please feel free to drop me an e-mail if you have any question or suggestion!

Have a great journey!

 That is so great to be able to see the world "different from the news and television" on a daily basis - that's the way I would like to see the world, too!
