About Me: mtnseeker is John Osaki. Co-owner of Mountain Hiking Holidays, Inc. Fan of mountain hiking around the world! Cut his hiking teeth in the Ko'olau Mountains of O'ahu (Hawaii) and in the Olympic Mountains of Washington State. Has hiked the mountains of five continents; fifty-two countries and counting. Fascinated with old walled cities (e.g. Dubrovnik, Cordes-sur-Ciel, Sibiu...), the monuments of antiquity (e.g. Machu Picchu, Angkor Wat, Tikal), and getting to the tops of volcanoes (e.g. Villarica, Soufriere, Pico, Kilimanjaro, Hood, Ngauruhoe, Asahi-dake...). Can't pass up a glass of Keknyelu, Rubin or Bellet or a good cup of java!
