While I was living in India for three months, there were quite a few storms that went through the area, this was one of them. It wasn’t a big storm, and to be honest there wasn’t much to it as storms go, but it was definitely powerful. The footage was taking in July, 2014 and it’s taken about 4.5 years for me to make a movie about it.

I’ve been trying to create some movies of my travels for the last few years and I’m up to I think 10 videos in the last few months. It’s kind of slow going but it’s been fun. The only problem other than just being new at the process is trying to get people to watch them. Seriously, I can’t get my brother to watch them… :)

In this video I spent some time in two animal sanctuaries in Borneo, specifically in Sandakan, Sabah, Malaysia. The first sanctuary was for the sun bears and the second was for orangutans.

The websites for these sanctuaries are: Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre: http://www.bsbcc.org.my/

Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre: https://www.orangutan-appeal.org.uk/

The footage for this video was taken back in 2015 and has been compiled just recently. Over the last twelve years I have spent much of my time traveling around the world taking photos and some videos of the sites and sounds of unique and beautiful location and people. I decided about a month ago to start creating some videos of my travels. I hope that if you watch this video you’ll understand that I am learning as I go along and hopefully you’ll stick with me while my videos continue to improve.

Take some time and give the video a watch. I’ve been adding quite a few videos lately, but I’m not getting a love. It’s sad on how many people don’t want my videos….

This is my second attempt in as many days to practice my video editing skills. I’m getting better but there are still lots problems. Probably the biggest is that I don’t have all the right footage, or the footage that I do have is barely adequate. Oh well. From Wikipedia: Typhoon Soudelor Typhoon Soudelor, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Hanna, was the third most intense tropical cyclone worldwide in 2015 after Hurricane Patricia and Cyclone Pam as well as the strongest tropical cyclone of the 2015 Pacific typhoon season. Soudelor had severe impacts in the Northern Mariana Islands, Taiwan, and eastern China, resulting in 40 confirmed fatalities. Formed:July 29, 2015 Dissipated:August 12, 2015 Highest winds:10-minute sustained: km/h (mph), 1-minute sustained: km/h (mph) Lowest pressure:900 hPa (mbar) Fatalities:59 total

This is a video I made from some of the footage I had about Mui Ne, Vietnam. Mui Ne is a coastal fishing town in the south-central Bình Thuan Province of Vietnam. About 3 years ago I was in Mui Ne for the xmas season and just now got to creating a video of a perfect morning there. I just wish I didn’t cringe so hard with the voice over. I think the problem is I’m trying to be quiet and it’s coming across as just weird.

I uploaded a video about a week that I spent in Hikkaduwa last month. It wasn’t until yesterday that I realized that I have a web site that may help me promote my youtube channel. So if you get a chance take a few minutes and watch the video. I know that it’s rough in areas, but I’m still learning.

A few years ago I spent my Spring break in Hikkaduwa. The small city is probably known best for being a great beach and diving location to many people. During my week there I spent time doing what most people do, playing in the water, laying on the beach, and just kinda hanging out. I did take a day trip to the neighboring city of Galle where I ran into a snake charmer. This is I think the fifth video I’ve done recently and I know that many people may consider this video, “rough” but I am proud of the final product and I hope that it first, gives some people the idea how beautiful the area is, and second how much I’ve improved over the last few videos on Youtube.

Hey, if you get a chance check out one of my videos. I just remembered that I have a web site that I can at least try to promote my videos, so although I think I uploaded this video a month or two ago, I still want to add it to my blog.
