Older man sits on his front stoop smoking a cigarette in Trinidad, Cuba. He caught my eye becuase he had such an expressive face and a sweet image on his shirt.

“We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next, to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about the world than our newspapers will accommodate. We travel to bring what little we can, in our ignorance and knowledge, to those parts of the globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again.” - Pico Iyer

 

I photographed this little girl on my two day cruise on the Mekong River to Luang Prabang, Lao. We stopped along the river to visit an ethnic minority village and this was one of many photographs I took of the photogenic children. It was very hard to see the poverty, living conditions and hardship of the village.

 

Yes, travel will open our hearts and eyes. It is the greatest cure for ignorance.

 

Stay tuned for more of my adventures in Southeast Asia.

 

Happy Travels!

Bedouin camp, Sahara Desert, Morocco

 

I didn't know there were sand dunes that would take over an hour to climb. I found this to be true when we set out at 4 a.m. to climb a mini-mountain of sand to watch the sun rise over the Sahara Desert. We were in Morocco, just 20 miles west of the Algerian border. We slept the night under the stars, in a Bedouin camp about a two-hour camel ride from the town of Merzouga. It has been a dream of mine since I was a child to ride a camel in the Sahara, and all the effort it took to get here was worth it.

 

This ran in the New York Times Travel Section of the Sunday paper:
