Nothing is Impossible

Sometimes it would be simpler if life was predictable, but it would make it awfully boring. Travel is much the same as life. You never know where the road may lead and sometimes it's better if you take the road less traveled. Welcome to my travel world, where you'll get to explore travel as seen through my eyes!

I live in the United States and have for my entire life, which in itself sounds not that exciting. I have done alot of traveling over the course of the last few years. The majority of it, lately, due to my job. I'm an avid photograhper and won't be found without my camera on any trip.

At first dreams seem impossible, then improbable, then inevitable.
-- Christopher Reeve (1952-2004) American Actor

Travel This Year

The Golden Temple, India

Happiness is essentially a state of going somewhere, wholeheartedly,
one-directionally, without regret or reservation.

My travel in 2008 was relatively light but included Costa Rica and the Northern California Coast.

Just Do It

Victoria, British Columbia

The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it.
- Chinese Proverb

Life is all about positive attitudes and open minds and believing in yourself and others. I think travel is much the safe. Keep a positive attitude and an open mind and every journey will in the end be the best one you've had.

Believe

Vienna, Austria

Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see the beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they may lead.
- Louisa May Alcott

Go Outside the Box

Mount Rainier, Washington

Do not follow where the path may lead, but go beyond the path and leave a trail!

I like to think that we should take chances. Go that extra mile and take that extra step. As long as you are true to yourself, take a leap of faith. In the end, its what you do in your life and the mark you leave behind that will count the most.

Live

Budapest, Hungry

Man has never made any material as resilient as the human spirit.
--Bernard Williams (1929-) English Philosopher

When things don't go your way, pick yourself up and contiinue. Life goes on and the human spirit inside each of us is stronger than we think. Show strength and courage, not weakness. Life is damn short.

Dream

San Francisco, California

You see things; and you say, "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say "Why not?"
-- George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) Irish Playwright

We all have dreams. It's making those dreams come true that matters. Like they say, you only live once.

Keep on movin.....

If we are facing in the right direction, all we have to do is keep on
walking.
-- Buddhist Proverb
