Laos Motorbike Trip

Finn Jones
Laos Motorcycle Tour

Never Turn down a chance to travel.

In March I was having dinner at Indocine of all places with my good friend and traveling mate, Finn Olaf Jones . At Dinner he invited me to travel on a motor cycle tour of Laos. He is a writer and I am a photographer so I knew this would be good. It was a wonderful trip guided by Jim Barbush of www.remoteasia.com. There I met two friends of Finns' Andrew and Garland. Off I went in the company of an outgoing group of riders to enjoy delicious spicy and seasoned meals. We met warm people while riding Honda dirt bikes through the fertile country side. Truly a trip I will treasure for a lifetime. Click on the photo for an enlarged view.

Vivian Schiller NPR CEO Shoot


Vivian Schiller CEO National Public Radio

Vivian Schiller CEO National Public Radio

Vivian Schiller made headlines last fall when it was announced she would be leaving her post at NYTimes.com — where she’d led the team responsible for the Times‘ much-admired Web overhaul — to become president and CEO of NPR.  I am thrilled to have met her. I could live without television but could not without NPR. WNYC has interesting intelligent programing that i find so interesting that if i miss it during the day I will stream it at night. We had a nice interaction and I look forward to working with her again.
