I fell into travel writing "by accident" when a car hit me on my bike, broke my knee, and changed my life forever. A year later, fully recovered, I cashed in my $20K insurance settlement to travel the world, hitting 28 countries in 12 months, and becoming a full blown travel writer in the process, with stories published in newspapers like the Chicago Tribune, South China Morning Post, Vancouver Sun and Cape Town Argus. Now I have my own TV show, shooting in a dozen countries on six continents in summer 2007. Watch for more video, and read my adventures stories, interviews with 1600 people (from 68 countries) and pictures at moderngonzo.com. Booyakasha!
