It all started


Ready for adventure!


It all started back in 7th grade. We were studying ancient civilizations and my teacher made the subject so interesting that she instilled in me a life long love of and desire to know about history first hand by travelling and living in different cultures. It wasn't until I was grown, married and the kids grown up that I got the chance to indulge my desire to travel and live in foreign lands. The village I live in now is full of history and the country is full of history. From here I also get to travel to far away places and see things I've always dreamed of seeing. So, I'm living my dream, wearing my Indiana Jones hat and having adventures of my own. As I look back, I can't believe it's really happened to me!

My life-the short version


I'm Vic to most of my friends, uncle to some and even Grandpa to a select few. After serving in the Armed Forces overseas I continued my education. Where upon I found myself married and living in Scottsdale Arizona and so my life really began.
After working as an engineer for many years I finally ended up at Arizona State University as a Computer Graphic Artist. I'm still not sure how that all happened, luck I guess.
Then the next phase of my life began, living outside the U.S.
More on that in my next blog.
