Your Bio

Hi family and friends. I hope this site works out well for you. I'm working on adding more photos, and I'll try to add comments, at least for the galleries, if not individual photos. If you have any trouble seeing any of the pics or using the site, let me know. The galleries from Africa are more or less in chronological order from the top down. The photos inside the galleries are less likely to be in a particular order. There's a button to add comments, and I'd really like to hear if you like any of the pics or if you want to know more about them, so please feel free to add comments or questions. Enjoy!

Acadia NP July 4th '03 : 2003 - july 4th weekend - i spontaneously drove up to acadia at the suggestion of jean, my beloved stepsister, to join her and her friends. i left boston at 9 pm and got there around 2 am. the next three days were spent playing joyously among the rocks, hills, and beaches of the park, with jean, chris, brian, and melissa. the photos are of otter cliffs climbing, and hikes on the beehive and a mid-sized acadia mountain with commanding views. it was one of the most fun weekends i've ever had, and i met some very cool friends too.

Ho : These photos are from Ho and the surrounding area, where I spent the first two weeks of the trip living with a small family. Ho is in the Volta region of Ghana, which is in the southeastern-most part of the country, east of Lake Volta. The Volta region is mostly farmland and lush forests, and is somewhat isolated from the rest of Ghana by the man-made Lake Volta to the west. Ho is the region's capitol, more of a big town than a small city, with a very friendly atmosphere and a strong entrepreneurial spirit. It is not a wealthy area, even by Ghanaian standards, but the people are spirited, vibrant, and proud of their community. As a white traveller in this area with very little tourism, I stuck out like an elephant in a church, but I almost always felt welcomed by the people I met.

Kumasi : Kumasi, the capital of the Ashanti region, is the second-largest city in Ghana. It is a city with a long history as the seat of power of one of the most enduring and powerful African ethnic groups, and is also home to one of the largest open-air markets in all of West Africa.

Livingstone/Victoria Falls : Livingstone is in Zambia, and is the heart of Zambian tourism surrounding Victoria Falls. When I visited, the dry season was near it's end, which means very low water. At the end of the rainy season, the entire ridge you see in the photos would be covered with torrents of water! In order to avoid a poorly-timed and sweltering 6-hour bus-ride back to Lusaka, we opted to take a charter flight. The plane was probably more sweltering than the bus, but only until we were airborne, and the view was fanatastic!

Mozi Oa Tunya Nat. Park, Zambia : This park, situated right by Livinstone, is home to many animals, including the only five white rhinos in all of Zambia. There are plenty of elephants, but we didn't see them, only the destruction they inflict upon the trees when they knock them down to chew the bark.

Soweto, South Africa : While in Johannesburg, I was warned over and over not to walk around with a camera, so unfortunately, I have few pictures from around the city. However, I did tour one of the historic townships near Joburg called Soweto, for South West Township. While the business of offering the tours gets mixed reactions, I knew, with only two days in the area, I wouldn't otherwise get a good insight to the character of a city that was until about 12 years ago ruthlessly segregated by law, and remains so to a large degree, though things are changing. Soweto was a township built by the minority White government in the '30s as a place to keep all the Black people, where they'd have easy access to the factories and mines, but otherwise be out of the way of the White suburbs to the north of the city. It has evolved from a dispairing slum into a spirited and vibrant community, and was a hotbed of political action towards ending the apartheid regime.
