Who am I?

This is the talk page for "Billbarrelrider". Formerly "willthewander", I have been editing for several years but am trying to make less of a mess by not editing anonymously.

I am active on a number of forums and some of you may have met me in the small world we inhabit.

Why I edit?

I support Wikivoyage because I value independent travel and the opportunities it gives people, to understand the world we live in I believe we have to see it with our own eyes. I'm a traveler; not a writer, but I want others to have the opportunities I did.

Frustrated by the Ego-driven blog movement that has fragmented user contributions to the Web and created petty division in the community, as far as I'm concerned we're all in this together. Editing on a broken mobile phone, often in some village with limited power or internet I do my best, but I apologies if my IP jumps around, my edits have formatting errors or seem rushed.

Countries I've visited:

Australia, China, Tibet, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, morocco, Spain, England, France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Monaco, the Netherlands, Czech Republic, Hungary, Bulgaria, Serbia Romania, Montenegro, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, India, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar, Vietman, maybe a few others.

In an emergency:

If travelers are in danger and I am in the region contact me here or preferably at firstportcall@mail.com, I'm generally broke but willing to assist if travelers are in a real jam.
