This blog documents my travels in Southeast Asia and South America, as well as occasional comments on botany, literature, economics, and international environmental issues. I was a Fulbright Scholar in the Philippines for tropical forest ecology and currently work for a software company in the Washington, DC metro area. Here’s some more information about me.
Also, I’m learning Python and sharing my experiments on Github.

Congrats on winning the Clustermap blog of the week. That prompted me to visit your website. We are fellow travelers. At last count I had worked and traveled in 86 countries with careers in the Air Force, American Red Cross, Peace Corps, and the World Bank. I went most of the way around the world in 1999 via the containership Cho Yang Atlas. We also share a common interest in nature and tha adventure of discovering interesting people/friends around the globe. Benedictions on your journals and Warmest Agape, A. C. Gray
