In advance of setting out on my year of travels, I thought I’d send out an invite to friends and family. Internet connectivity permitting, my intention is to upload photos and some brief tales of my travels as I go along. If you can put up with my terrible blogging skills, I’d encourage you to check this out every once in a while to confirm that I’m still alive and well. I am bringing some good photographic gear along, so hopefully I’ll be able to at least entertain you with some decent photos along the way.

Now, if you want to go the extra mile, you can actually track my progress for my first 85 days or so of travel here: http://www.dragoman.com/overlanding/truck-tracker Just look for the truck that starts moving in Nepal on Sept. 6, 2015. After that the truck is heading south around the periphery of India, starting on the west, going south and around.

I’m hoping to have decent internet connectivity, at least when I’m in India (so to mid-November 2015), as such don’t be strangers!
