Africa
I have not yet visited Africa. Future plans include a vacation in Kenya.


Antarctica
I worked at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station for Raytheon Polar Services Corporation from about November 3, 2002 to November 11, 2003. My travel to get me to the South Pole included a flight to Auckland and Christchurch, New Zealand. I was able to spend a few days in Christchurch on the way to, and on my return from, the South Pole.


Asia
After working at the South Pole for a year, I was ready for some sun and sand. On about November 15th, 2003, I left Christchurch for Thailand. This trip took me through Auckland and Sidney. I flew into Bangkok where I spent a few days before hooking-up, later in Jomtien, with a friend from the South Pole, Frederick McDougal. We traveled to an island called Kho Samet, where we rented some bungalows and spent some time on, or near the beach.
I was recently working on an Island in the Indian Ocean called Diego Garcia and now reside in the Philippines.


Europe
I have been to Europe many times.
My travels include trips for both vacation and work to:
London, England
Geneva, Switzerland
Ancona, Italy
Rome, Italy
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Frankfurt, Germany
Tel Aviv, Israel
Jerusalem, Israel
Gaza City, Israel


North America
I was born in Waukegan, Illinois, and have visited nearly every state in the USA. I have also been to Vancouver and Winnipeg, Canada, and once drove the AlCan highway through the Yukon to vacation in Alaska.
I have also been to Tijuana and once worked in Mexico City for about a week.


Oceania
Travel to the South Pole took me through Auckland and Christchurch, New Zealand. I was able to spend a few days in Christchurch on the way to, and on my return from, the South Pole. I was also briefly in Sidney, Australia while on my way to Thailand, but I was not able to leave the airport.


South America
I have not yet visited South America. Future plans include a vacation in Brazil and, possibly, a motorcycle trip across the continent on a Kawasaki KLR 650. See my friend Gary Knittel's site for more information on the possible motorcycle trip. http://www.knitteldude.com/
