After graduating from the University of California at Santa Barbara, Carl traveled throughout Europe and later returned to work in Hawaii, Lake Tahoe, Aspen, Salt Lake City, and finally, San Francisco. But childhood memories of Asia continued to pull him to the East. Carl fervently believes that travel is an immensely rewarding undertaking that affirms the basic truths of life.
Travel is much more than just monuments and ruins.
It's an opportunity to reach out and discover what's best about the world. Travel enriches our lives, spreads prosperity, dissolves political barriers, promotes international peace, and brings excitement and change to our lives. Carl also believes in the importance of political, economic, and environmental issues. Historical sites and beaches make for wonderful memories, but national agendas such as human rights and rainforest preservation are just as fascinating in their own right. Understanding the contemporary scene enriches travel experiences and opens avenues rarely explored by the visitor.
