Travel philosophy
The more people travel and learn about one another the better the world will be.
Craziest place
A restaurant in a town north of Hanoi where there were live dogs, deer, snakes and the like and one could choose which one they wanted for dinner. Luckily, we were not hungry.
Bizarre experience
Sleeping in a Pesch hut in La Mosquitia... or in a tree house in India, or spending a week on a felucca on the Nile (no toilet!).
Advice
Just go...
Dream destination
Luckily, I have visited most of my dream places: Easter Island, Angkor Wat, Machu Picchu, Vietnam... now I like to travel slowly so I can really get to know a place and meet the people.
Traveled before
Most places in Europe, Asia, North America, South America, Oceania, and only a few places in Africa.
Going next
Philippines, Myanmar, but ready to go anywhere, anytime.
