I started exploring the world in my late 20's and have been addicted ever since. It's changed my way of life. Once I started spending time and money on experiences rather than things, I realized what I had been missing for so long.  The world is a fascinating place.   Every culture is different and amazing in it's own way.  If you show genuine interest, people are excited to share their culture with you.   My goal is to retire early so I can be on permanent travel.  Until then, I will continue to pop in to a few countries per year, enjoying the culture, food and people.  Some of my favorite pics here.
