Greetings across the seas. My name is Sam Dixon, a native American from the green mountains of Virginia, the blue-collar brawn of Baltimore, the editing desks of Washington, D.C., and from 27 years abroad among the wonderful people of Asia. Now I’ve gone full circle and returned home to America. Overseas, there were catastrophic earthquakes, military coups and near-biblical floods. From Taiwan’s aborigine villages, China’s whirring factories, the Philippines’ coral beaches, Thailand’s Buddhist temples, and the glittering skyscrapers of Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore, I have learned to appreciate cultural diversity. Let me share that with you through my site’s writings and photographs.

The English major eager for travel and adventure …

… became an editor of business, government, technical and sports documents.
