The Meanderings of a Wayward Traveler

These are the stories of my travels around the world leading up to visiting my 100th country. They are important stories for me to tell my children since I have been away for such long periods of time in their lives. I hope that they might eventually read these stories and understand a little more about me and what I was doing traveling the world. I am also putting in other blogs which are related to the work I do in the developing world and the thoughts I have on random days.
