Thanks for all the concerned emails and phone calls from friends tracking me around the globe, although I am quite far from the recent earthquake in China. Hong Kong, where I am right now, was unaffected by the tremors.

Interested in planning your own trip around-the-world, or part of the way around? I’ve added a new travel links section to the website that includes links to some of the best resources on the net in around-the-world travel and other adventures–all of which I’ve used. More will be added overtime. See under the […]

It has come to my attention that the change of design here at NoBoundaries.org has changed the address of the RSS Feed! Yikes, that’s not a nice way to treat my loyal reader (sorry mom).

So, if you subscribed to the RSS feed on this site prior to November 1st, then you’re going to have to update your RSS subscription (in Google Reader, Yahoo Reader, etc) to the new address: www.noboundaries.org/feed

The folks over at Rotary.org have been so kind as to write a little story about my around-the-world trip and my work with Rotary—and they even included a few photos of the cow. Thanks Ryan and crew for your interest and efforts. (I hope I can send some traffic back your way.) You can read the story at www.rotary.org (if the top banner story has changed, you can go directly to the story at by clicking here or cut and paste this URL into your browser: (http://www.rotary.org/en/MediaAndNews/Newsletters/Interactive/Pages/200801/Feature.aspx)

One of the more popular features here at noboundaries.org, is the randomly rotating travel quotes that appear in the right-hand column of the homepage. These are quotes I’ve gathered during my three-years of work planning and researching my trip, as well as others passed along to me by friends. Since planning a trip around-the-world must always start with a bit of inspiration, I share these quotes with you in hopes that they do just that for you.

I’ve been getting a lot of email requests that begin “So there was this quote on your website…” and end with “but it disappeared before I could write it down…” So, today we introduce a new feature on the presently “under construction” redesign of the noboundaries.org site: a single page containing all the quotes that have ever appeared in the quote section of the front page.

If you’re a regular reader here at noboundaries.org, the truth of the matter is, you’re reading stories about China, but I’m not in China at all—in fact, I left China three months ago.

There are many rules of travel I have learned during my travels: the biggest of which might be: Don’t redesign your travelogue while on a camel safari in a 3rd world country.

Please excuse us while we rearrange a bit around here. (Thanks John Bollwitt for your technical and creative expertise in making this happen.)

I promise we’ll get all this digitial “construction dust” cleaned up, once I figure out where to park this camel.

Please remain calm and seated, as our technicians work out some technical difficulties. One dead hard drive, has turned my Apple laptop into the world’s most expensive iPaperweight. I promise once we get ye ol’hard drive moving/out of surgery (cross your fingers), this website will arise out of its sleep and continue on this facsinating journey.. Thank your for your patience and understanding.
