My blogs

Gender	Male
Industry	Tourism
Occupation	Communicator, Coordinator, Adventurer
Location	Seattle, WA, United States
Introduction	Here's what it's about people and it breaks down pretty simply: I believe, down in my pint-pumping heart, that many, if not most, of our global ills originate from simple lack-of-understanding of other countries and cultures... not REALIZING we're one planet one species, but just seeing the negative differences, instead of the unifying threads. Tourism, aptly directed and smartly utilized, can be a vehicle to carry the cure to these ills overseas and through mountain passes. Buy a ticket...go somewhere.
Interests	Sailing, SCUBA, hiking, caving, photography, writing, and gaming.
Favorite Movies	As far as movies about destinations, The Abyss, Apollo 13, Atlantis, Avatar, Back to the Future, Castaway, The Darjeeling Limited, Finding Nemo, Flight of the Navigator, Indiana Jones, Jumanji, King Kong, National Treasure, Pirates of the Caribbean, Space Jam, Star Wars, Tarzan, and What Dreams May Come.
Favorite Music	These days, I'm very much into synthwave and retrowave, and am an avid news and education podcast listener.
Favorite Books	Most recently enjoyed "A Voyage for Madmen."
