Welcome to my travel page. Hopefully you will find my pictures and pages of some use to you as you plan your trips. If nothing else perhaps they might provide an interesting read as you while away a lazy Sunday afternoon?

I am originally from the Chicago area and have spent my entire life in the state if Illinois. If you have questions about Chicago/Illinois in general feel free to ask. However I should warn you that, except for a grad school stint in Champaign, I have limited experience being in some of the other downstate cities (Peoria, Springfield etc). Chicagoans will sometimes get into the mindset that there is nothing else in Illinois south of I-80 (yours truly included)

Currently I live in Evanston which is on the northern border of Chicago. Evanston has everything you can find in the city - public transportation, a world-class university, high-rise condos, great restaurants - but with better parking.

October 2006 - Philippines and China. The main purpose of the trip was to attend my cousin's wedding in Shanghai but we also toured Beijing as well. Updated pages to come soon.

January 13-16 - Denver - Skiing and snowboarding!
February 14-26 - Chinese New Year in Singapore!
