bio

Hi Everyone! My name is Kevin and I’m an Artist/Writer. On the art side, I do travel photography from my jaunts around the world. I recently just went to South America for the first time. Lima, Peru and Santiago, Chile were amazing. I think travel is so important. There is nothing like experiencing firsthand the cultures of another country. It gives you an irreplaceable layer of understanding that you can’t get from a travel show or book. Now, I am opening up the opportunity for my fellow Big Dreamers of the world to come travel the globe with me. Together, as a team with me as your TourHero, let’s immerse ourselves into the cultures of our universe and find out what makes them so special and unique. The World Awaits. Who's ready to Dream BIG with me?
