TWO THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ME: I AM WELL ADVENTURED AND AM REAL PHOTOGENIC.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Here I am in Jockey’s ridge which is the tallest active sand dune inthe eastern United States. These are a bunch of (scary) tree swallows just swarming around after chowing down. Fun fact: the Wright brothers flew planes really close to here.

watching acrobats perform outside of Jodhpur in Rajasthan, India. These acrobats are part of the 80 millions of people in the country who are nomads, meaning they usually lack some basic needs, like housing and therefore cannot get any government help. These nomads were once a common way of life in old school India, but now find it difficult adapting in their home country, especially with being ostracized in a country where the cast system still holds some power:
Just defining the term “nomad” is problematic in India. Many groups that once unambiguously fit the category have clustered in slums in a process anthropologists call sedentarization. Yet India remains a rigidly stratified society in which birth is often synonymous with destiny. So, mobile or not, India’s nomads are united by a history of poverty and exclusion that continues to this day: arguably the biggest human rights crisis you’ve never heard of.
