I think I’m going to go to New Zealand next. I think that Fiji is turning out the be the real hub of the Pacific and most of the places I want to go to in the Pacific seem to fly in and out of Fiji. However, to get from Rarotonga to Fiji, I have …
Just a quick update before I hit the road to Queenstown. I just had this photo taken about 30 min ago up on Fox Glacier, NZ. I had never been in a helicopter before. It was amazing. I got about 15 min of video footage too. Not having packed much in the way of cold …
This will have to be quick. I found an internet connection, but I only have a few minutes. So far, Kakadu has been pretty amazing. It is part African savanna, part American Southwest indian ruins. Since I’ve been here I’ve probably shot 6gb of photos and I’m going on a river boat tour in about …

I’m back from my trip to Uluru. We slept under the stars (literally), and froze our asses off. The swing in temperature in the desert is really crazy. It went from -3C (30F) to 21C (70F) in a single day. It is a reoccuring theme with me, but I am not equipped to deal with …
