In 1996 I started observing Odonata in Sri Lanka. After 15 years in Sri Lanka, I moved to Nepal where I have been traveling in the Himalayan region for the past 9 years. I have two blog sites, one for Odonata in Nepal called http://odonatanepal.blogspot.com/ and one travel blog called https://karoconniff.blogspot.com/.

I moved to Washington State in October 2020.
