I met this lovely sloth in Costa Rica.

MY ADVENTURES East Africa has long been in my heart. I first experienced Kenya and Tanzania several decades ago, returning frequently ever since. Nature, wilderness, animals, history, and connecting with locals has led me on memorable exploration to Brazil's Amazon and Pantanal, Borneo, Costa Rica, Iceland, Botswana, Morocco, Belize, Guatemala, Cuba, much of the Arctic Circle, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Japan, etc. While Africa and Asia are my specialties, I've traveled extensively throughout Europe including Italy, Romania, Greece, France, Croatia, etc. and throughout much of Mexico and the Caribbean islands.

STAY YOUR WAY Just because I like to stay in a remote, rustic jungle lodge or tree-house doesn't mean I don't need some hotel pampering every now and then! What's your lodging preference? Boutique hotel, luxury hotel, resort, maybe a home-stay, beach house, cabin, mobile camping? Whatever your style - or to learn more about accommodation options - let's discuss!

RIVER CRUISING Here' something I never thought I'd take to, but surprisingly.. I love river cruising. You're provided the opportunity for deep, rich cultural exploration at each destination, a relaxed on-board atmosphere, fabulous cuisine, gorgeous views. And no crowds! I have extensive knowledge of the cabins, amenities, destinations, etc. for all river cruise lines. The training I received during the 2024 and 2025 ASTA River Cruise EXPO in Vienna and Amsterdam allowed me to experience every river cruise line including AmaWaterways, Avalon, Emerald, Tauck, Viking and more. Let's start planning!
