I am married to my Russian sweetheart and enjoying life traveling and working on various projects. I have a passion for life and adventure that I love to share with my readers. As an avid traveler and professional businessman conducting business worldwide for years, I have made many interesting contacts and received numerous awards for top production. I have owned and operated several real estate companies, several insurance companies, and a stock brokerage company. I love radio and TV talk shows, as well as speaking in front of various audiences. Feel free to contact me if you need a guest speaker.
When it comes time to play, I am very active in many sports including dancing, swimming, tennis, biking, and skiing. While I love adventures that are new, interesting, and challenging, making friends who share my passions is a special gift. We are based in Clearwater, Florida where we are planning our next trip, and I can be often found in various coffee shops around the world working on my next novel, or promoting the international digital nomad society. I am an international digital nomad who loves to work where I am at present, doing what I want and when I want to do it. While we are based in Clearwater Florida, we travel internationally 100% of the time to capture photos and footage to produce our videos and Photography from our travels, etc. You can see more about our online fine art photography gallery at www.sirjohnphoto.com
Over time I have also mastered many skills, such as working as a novelist, of which I have produced 26 best sellers, and I love photography and videography. Yes, not a spring chicken as I fell in love with this back in the 70’s. I also have been a professional speaker since back in the early 70’s when I was on Auburn University’s debate team, which was fantastic. I run Sir John Production company which produces my videos and presentation support for my speeches. Another company, Sir John Publishing handles my novels which are in around 43,000 bookstores worldwide. By the way, my novels are international romantic thrillers. I am also the founder and president of the international digital nomad society, where I help others do what I do. I produce training videos and give speeches to help others accomplish this. I also work as a coach in this transition and as a charisma coach, helping people become more charming, more friendly, and thus more interesting. My current focus and reason for setting up a Patreon account is to help fund the Musical and travel-related videos I make for YouTube and to help fund the cost of doing international photo exhibitions. I will be taking the photography and video work I capture on my trips, plus acquiring some as needed to fill in the blanks in the videos I produce. I belong to many sites where I can get free, but some I pay for. I do all of the color gradings and enhancing before animating them and adding music which I obtain through several subscription services, etc., and all of this to be sure I have no strikes on YouTube. I use Adobe products to polish the final product before releasing them. Obviously, these videos can be expensive to make, but it is a work of love. Your support is greatly appreciated, and I hope to add many more benefits on Patreon over time as a way of saying thank you very much. With your support, I hope to be able to travel continuously and release new videos from wherever my wife and I are at that moment, plus I hope to put on meetings and workshops to show others how to be digital nomads.
