Dubai’s Historic Estuary – Friday’s Weekly Travel Photo

Gentle waves rocking old Dhous as they line historic quays. The soft sound of bare feet on salt cured wood as old deck hands wander from sliver of shade to sliver of shade. The muttering putter of over-sized and oft-repaired engines pushing flat topped estuary taxis from shore to shore. The occasi…

You know that moment when the doors close, the hustle/bustle/rush of getting on to or into somewhere passes and you you look around only to realize you're not where you should be?  It's an awkward moment.  One I genera…

Located in the midst of cascading sheets of water and behind a wall of thundering noise Victoria Falls boasts a variety of beautiful rock formations. A visit to the falls is never quite the same as everything from the …

Travel Fears: Africa – Revelations as A White Traveler

This is a hard and somewhat scary post to write. In part because the ideas and realizations I want to share are difficult to communicate and convey and in part because if I fail to convey them properly I'll come across…

Avoid Wrecking Your Study Abroad Experience

The bartender leaned across the dark stained wood that marked a bar that had heard and seen the drunken adventures of revelry makers for decades.  In a thick Irish accent he rambled off, "What'll ya' take darlin?" with…

My Mistake – How I Overlooked Camden

Is Camden Dangerous? Let's start with the basics...this post should likely be titled - "Camden - You're not going to get shot, stabbed, murdered, or bludgeoned to death" but that seemed slightly too long and obtuse. The short answer to this concern is, "No it's not dangerous and in fact, it's r…

A Photographer’s Late Night Musings

As I start this post it's 2AM on a Friday night.  I've opted to stay in, distracted - or dare I confess lost in editing photos from my recent trip through Zambia.  I've got a half empty glass of 15 year old Scotch and …

Tales of Narnia, or Should I Say Narni?

Roused from our beds by the golden rays of the Umbrian sun we began what would round out our two and a half-day adventure through Umbria. Slowly rubbing the last traces of sleep from my eyes I found myself once again s…

Perito Moreno Waterfalls – Friday’s Weekly Travel Photo

I love hiking near water.  I'm not sure if that love stems from early childhood when I was imprinted with wonderful memories while hiking along snow-melt fed streams in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado, or results fr…

In 2007 I set out on a three-month solo trip through Europe, in 2011 I re-located to Copenhagen. I’ve been authoring VirtualWayfarer ever since with a focus on sharing stories, musings, and advice through a visually and narrative rich format. I’m also the author of Practical Curiosity: The Guide to Life, Love & Travel and the inventor of the MistDefender lens cloth.

I document my travels on a Sony A7RV and iPhone 16Pro.
