Viva la Vida, Explore...

It's getting closer to that time in my life when I can do what makes me happy, which is simply to live life & explore.
This channel is my diary for family, friends & anyone else who'd like to join me, from the comfort of their sofa, on this magical mystery tour.

The Branding
Kon-Tiki's face is used by the Explorers Trust with whom I've been associated for more than 40 yrs & also Thor Heyerdahl on his 1947 Kon-Tiki Expedition. Many of my previous explorations were done under Kon-Tiki's watchful eye.

Viva la Vida, Watermelons is the last painting that Mexican Artist, Frida Kahlo did. She was her own muse & painted her life for all to see & had a final msg in this last painting. I'll take her advise & "Live Life" on this my last great adventure.
