About Me

ExplorationVacation.net is a travel resource for curious adult travelers looking for honest evaluations of destinations and activities. I focus on affordable soft adventure, history, and culture, with an emphasis on really getting to know a place.

I began the website in 2005, and have been pursuing photography and travel writing full-time since 2014. I'm an award-winning photo who has also:

  • Been a guest on The Amateur Traveler Podcast talking about travel to Vietnam and Phoenix
  • Contributed numerous stories to WorldHeritageSites.net
  • Led classes on travel to Egypt and Vietnam and on travel photography.

In addition, my photography has been published in several print publications and on business tee-shirts.
