Hello Fellow Traveler, welcome to my travel blog. My name is Warren Olson. I'm a bit of a nomad and do get around a lot. In 2006 I completed an overland journey from Europe to China via the Caucasus and Central Asia, a nearly four-month trip. I spent most of 2007 on the road as well, traveling overland on two trips. My first was from Europe across Russia, Central Asia, Mongolia, and eastern China. My second was overland from the UK to Cameroon through West Africa. I have no major travels planned for 2008, but things can always change.
I do a lot of my travel alone, although sometimes I join a group tour and have also worked as a tour leader for an adventure travel company in the Middle East. That's often because I can't find anyone to join me rather than because I prefer it that way, so feel free to drop me a line if you're looking for a travel partner to explore some remote corner of the earth. |

| modernnomad67's Interests and Hobbies |
| Besides travel? Well, I like hiking, both downhill and cross country skiing, mountain biking, weight lifting, reading, and cooking. Those are the major hobbies, but I'm always trying new things like surfing, sea kayaking, scuba diving, and snowboarding which have been a few of the more recent adventures. |
