THAT is an experience; but you are so grateful for the warm bath after many days of trekking that it hardly matters who’s sharing the pool with you. Maybe some day I will be able to travel with you to this magical country.

We do have similar views but I’m still in the daydreaming stage. I’m traveling & photographing inside my county or (in good cases) inside my country.

I should start by saying I am a huge admirer of your work. Your photos always made me daydream about those places. The places always seemed perfect, and the photos look like they are made far back in time when Earth was a paradise, not destructed by humans. But when I saw the movie I was blown away. It left me speechless. It’s an amazing video. In fact I am promoting it on my facebook page. You are one of the photographers that inspire me the most in my photography. I just wish to have the chance to visit those places someday. And I wish to capture them at least half as beautiful as you did. Neah, I’m kidding. I know my potential and my ambition. If I would have the chance to see those places I would try my best to capture them even more beautiful than you. But I probably wouldn’t get the chance to visit those places anyway. This is what I wrote on facebook about your clip: “it’s 11 minutes of sheer beauty. It’s a video-clip made by Michael Anderson. One of the photographers I admire the most. A photographer that inspires me. A person that I envy a little because he had the chance to travel to the world’s most photogenic places. After seeing the video I couldn’t decide what I like the most: this video or his photos. But enough talking. This is my Christmas present for you: http://vimeo.com/19476009 Enjoy the… Odyssey. I really did, and it left me speechless. If you want to see his photos just click on them in the down right corner of the vimeo page. I guess I should have described the movie as PERFECT. Everything is well placed and the amount of work and creativity involved in making this movie is obviously A LOT. Great pictures, perfect soundtrack, very very beautiful idea. Maybe it’s because it reflects my habits: to read about far away places and daydream about them :) ) Tell me what you think.” Congratulations Michael & thanks for sharing.

It really effects folks who see it, as many of them become motivated to travel afterwards. Unfortunately, people from the U.S. travel less than most (perhaps all) other first world nationalites, and so miss out on most of the world.
As for me: I’m a retired U.S. National Park Ranger who retired as soon as he could (I was 52 and had done law enforcement, hence able to stop work ASAP), traveled alone through Belize, Guatamala, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Ecuador, Venezuela, Peru, Bolivia, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, and met my wife in Thailand. She’s Thai, a computer engineer, and I convinced her to marry me (quite a feat!), quit work (If a Thai does this they may not be able to find work again) and travel with me. I’ve been with her for 5 years now, and am writing this from Thailand, about to travel to Vietnam & Laos, & next year to Mongolia & Nepal.
All of us represent our country, and local folks remember what we do and say. My country in particular is often disliked by others, although they almost never blame me personally. Often the dislike is very legitimate.
Keep up the great photography and writing, as reading your blogs has given me ideas for the future, and much enjoyment now.
Thanks!!

I can just look at your pictures, they are real, full of light, color and emotion. Sure to show your website to friends.
