I have now changed my stock photo to one of my own photos which i feel sums up my trip.  A long, windy, bumpy  road with one car, traveling off into the distance to some unknown place and time.  I will be surrounded by people and cultures throughout my trip, but this is my trip alone, and no one else’s.  This blog is of my journey and my experiences in other people’s cultures. It will allow me to show people the cultures of the world through my eyes.

*the photo I took while in Death Valley, traveling from where the Pupfish are, down to the salt flats – the lowest point in America.  I think I was still below sea level here.*
