I have to preface this memoir of mine by telling you that the ONLY reason that I wrote it is because I just couldn't let this amazing story of mine simply fade away and go to my grave with me. It was way too good for that! I mean I'd lay in my bed here in Thailand and think about all of the unbelievable things that had occurred during this journey of mine, and that if I didn't share it with mankind, well, it just wouldn't be right, what can I say, so I took this thing on, and it ended up being the best decision of my life.

It all started when I took what appeared to be an innocent 2-week ski vacation to Innsbruck, Austria, and then decided not to get on that return flight to Chicago because Europe seemed so cool, so instead took a train headed south with no destination in mind except for warmer weather, and ended up getting off in Nice, France because of a guy I met on the train who worked as a model there, and the next thing I know I get signed by his model agency and within days I'm working as an extra in an episode of that ol' American series The Love Boat, and well, I spent most of the next 35 years living and working all over the world. I mean none of this was planned, it was all right out of the blue, inadvertent if you will, and I just went with the flow, and here I am some 35 years later writing this memoir about this amazing journey of mine from my home in Pattaya Thailand, which just happens to sit right on the Gulf of Thailand.

Woe is not me, I can assure you. Honestly, I really had no choice but to write this book because my story was way too amazing and unbelievable and one of a kind to simply let die with me. I just couldn't let that happen. I want to point out that this book has over 200 color images that were taken along the way, and these images really take this book to a whole other level. They put you right in my shoes at a certain point in time of my journey.
