The Continental DRIFTER®
Welcome to The Continental DRIFTER® Channel!
I’m Ralph Velasco — travel photographer, author, and veteran international tour organizer. Since 2008, I’ve led 130+ small-group tours around the world and spent over 45 years exploring the globe.
This channel is for Gen X and Baby Boomer travelers who want to hit the road with more mindfulness, intention, and a camera in hand. I share practical travel and photography tips, cultural insights, and the amazing food, drink, and experiences I’ve collected along the way.
If you're ready to travel deeper, not just wider, and to capture better memories while you're at it — you’re in the right place.
Remember DRIFTERS… life’s too short not to travel!
👉 Subscribe & connect with me — let's hit the road together.
