Website Design

I am indebted to W. Thomas Grové for designing the original layout of this site, and for teaching and coaching me into using WordPress. Thomas is founder and owner of dxSaigon, a design and development consultancy based in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.  I am also indebted to Thomas for conjuring up the name, New Trekker Adventures when he was just 16-years-old.  We were on a six-week safari in Southern Africa when he compared what we were doing with the adventures of the pioneers of South Africa in the 1800’s, called Voortrekkers.  Thomas also came up with our logo on that same trek in Africa.
