My Travel Ethos

To Olympus and Back is a both a mental and physical journey.

I am engrossed by all things ancient. I believe that places hold sacred knowledge which is why viewing pictures is not the same as experiencing them in person. This is why I travel. I intend to bear witness to the sites where so many ingenious, beautiful, and cruel acts were committed by our common ancestors. My passion for history has guided and will continue to inspire my travels.
