Hi! I’m Dave, founder of Dave’s Travel Corner. Over the past 17+ years our core focus has been promoting experiential travel; our readers are actively interested in a wide range of travel experiences across a variety of budgets. I began Dave’s Travel Corner in late 1996 as a result of of a life-changing trip to Nepal in which I trekked near Everest Base Camp. I began writing a journal while I was on the trip and it was the notes from this journal that became the foundation for Dave’s Travel Corner.

While one might assume I would have been completely turned off by travel after becoming deathly ill and needing to be carried down a mountain all day on a woman’s back to a lower elevation (due to severe weakness and complete inability to walk), this trip had the opposite effect. It was my first trip to a part of the world that wasn’t western centric and my eyes were opened by authentic experiences, culture, food and the massiveness and sheer beauty of the world’s greatest mountains. I wanted more of this in a big way. The site helped combine my new found interest in travel, a long time love of writing and photography as well as my interest at that time in the fledgling Internet world.

That particular trek is covered in more detail here.

TripBase says: "His own writing is a master class in good travel journalism, but his greatest gift to us is the aforementioned Dave’s Travel Corner. It’s a site renowned for its excellence and something every travel junky should visit and, subsequently, become lost in."
