After visiting and exploring 115 countries and territories, I had a very strong desire and a lot of encouragement to share my different travel experiences and lessons I have learned while traveling the world. Traveling with a View is the result of that desire.
You will find blog entries about many different aspects of travel, expat life, positive and negative travel experiences, and a travel diary that chronicles my goal to visit every country and territory in the world. I always enjoy reading your comments, so please feel free to share your thoughts!
I also take a lot of photographs, so you are more than welcome to browse the photo gallery featuring some of my favorite photos I have taken during my travels.
Unlike a lot of people who often start traveling in their late teens or early twenties, I only started traveling with relative frequency at the age of 27. Therefore, I believe that I offer a different perspective from an expat in his early forties who has been living and working overseas for over ten years.
Please feel free to contact me if you have questions or feedback. I am always open to suggestions, networking opportunities, and appreciate all feedback.
