Another chapter has begun in my life’s book. Cheesy, I know, but so apt!
With itchier and itchier feet we decided it was time to put on some shoes and try to sooth those itches by heading off to live in Africa for a while. We will enjoy a change of pace and scenery (2009).
That was 7 years ago! Now, living in Australia again, I continue to document life wherever I am. I. Just. Can’t. Help. Myself. Although the travel has subsided somewhat, life still abounds around me and capturing it is so joyful.
I, er, think what really draws me to photography, or visual storytelling, is a bad memory! I also love that others can interpret my images in their own way based on their own unique life story and experiences.
Please enjoy my visual accounts of life as it surrounds me and feel free to ask questions or make comments.
Erin (and occasionally Chris).

You have a great blog here 🙂 I always wonder how people decide that it’s time to move on to a new world, a new life, and here you make it seem so easy and so right. I’ll make that choice someday soon I hope. I’ll be back to read more here. Rolling you!
Thanks for including me on your own blog. I wish you all the best in your life’s journey. Thanks for reading.
Hey Erin! You have created such a rich, lovely blog that is a joy to read. So wonderful to watch you blossoming online! Mind if I Tweet about you?
Thanks Gabee! Shucks! Tweet? Go ahead, I’ve never even seen what a tweet looks like!! How exciting…
Considering my nick name while I lived in S.E.Asia was “Itchy Feet” – (jeepachong-long-tao, in Thai), how could I not follow your blog?! Sharing travelling experiences through photography is awesome. So many of mine are trapped in my mind because I didn’t always have a camera…too busy ‘doing’ instead of ‘watching’.
I’ll be travelling through your blog – take care – stay well. And thanks.

Thanks Doug. Thank you for the nice comment and for following. I think that sometimes it is just as amazing to have experiences for yourself too, with and without your camera!
Hi Erin & Chris,
thanks for visiting Maidstone Jewelry. Turns out that we have a bit in common. I was born Uganda and lived there for 8 years (1950s)! Keep those feet moving.

If you love photography then Ethiopia is the place to tell stories different different stories with amazing people their traditions!
Thank you Pravin for the lovely comments. Ethiopia is a place that is not high on many bucket lists, however I think it is one of the most diverse and interesting countries I have ever spent much time in. I couldn’t recommend it more to explore.
Why u say so, any specific experience? I have seen some great pictures from some American photographers
The diversity of the landscape and cultures is the highlight for me.
Yes it is what u said is very true! Why u said u couldn’t recommend it to explore more?
These days along with photography I am trying to write my experiences, my feeling with people.
Stunning photography throughout your blog – I’m very impressed. I hope to make it to Ethiopia myself, it looks like such a wonderful place for culture and photography. All the best Mark
Thank you for the supportive comment Mark. Ethiopia is a diverse country in all aspects (landscape, people, culture) and one that is worth visiting.
