My name is David C. Dagley. I was born in San Francisco and grew up in the small Redwood town of Mill Valley, California until I went to college at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, California. My father received his masters in History from Cal Berkeley and forged his path to being one of the most respected travel agents in San Francisco. He, solely, is responsible for my appetite for travel and change which grew and blossomed around the world. I studied Political Science, International Affairs, China trade, and revolutions. Most of my extra credit classes were in literature which I read voraciously and still do.My travels have taken me through many places for no less than a month and up to a few years at some individual spots; Tahiti, Cook Islands, Fiji, New Zealand, Australia, Indonesia.
