Travel Memoir

Have you ever wondered how people who don’t earn a lot of money are able to create a travel lifestyle?

I think I was destined to fly.... My dad was a barnstormer pilot back in the 1930s (which I talk about in my audiobook Growing up in Oklahoma). This is where I think the DNA thing kicked in, and I wouldn't be satisfied until I was flying through the air. I designed and built my own ultralight aircraft and literally taught myself to fly. Let me take you on some of these adventures; I think you will enjoy them as much as I did.

With some reservations, he enters into a land where driving recklessly on crowded streets is normal, roosters crow from the rusty rooftops, and the strong coffee gets no creamer.
