Travel and History

Exploring the world has been one of my life’s greatest joys. With a deep appreciation for history and culture, I’ve journeyed to over 100 countries, uncovering stories from ancient civilizations to modern wonders. Living on three continents has given me a unique perspective on the richness and diversity of human experience, shaping my passion for discovery and preservation.

One of my greatest fascinations is 19th-century Western blown glass. I’ve traveled the globe and even dug at historic sites in search of these beautiful artifacts, each piece a window into the craftsmanship and stories of the past. From bustling markets to remote dig sites, this pursuit has connected me with incredible people and places.

As an avid diver, I’ve explored underwater worlds across the planet, marveling at the beauty and fragility of our oceans. These experiences have deepened my appreciation for the natural world and its interconnected history with humanity.

Whether wandering the streets of a historic city, unearthing treasures from the past, or diving into the depths of the sea, I’m driven by curiosity and a desire to better understand the stories that make us who we are.
