customs, fear the religion
and avoid the people, you might better stay home." - James Michener
Colin Ford
(the zebra)
Colin was born in Vancouver, Canada and has over
30 years experience in the marketing and advertising field, much of it
in travel and e-commerce.
Colin has travelled extensively in Europe, Asia, North Africa, North
America and the Caribbean and is looking forward to expanding
his adventure travel horizons.
Will
a trip to Inner space in a MiG be the first item on his
adventure to do list? Probably not... Vietnam and South East
Asian beckon but he'll get to it eventually!
Colin hopes to start to mix his travel with helping those in the
countries he visits and is particularly interested in providing support
for students hoping to pursue high school and post secondary education.
Favourite Place (s): Cuba, Japan

Quote: "What you've done becomes the judge of what
you're going to do
- especially in other people's minds. When you're travelling, you are
what you are right there and then. People don't have your past to hold
against you. No yesterdays on the road." - William Least Heat
