Geographer by trade, he has travelled to over fifty countries, including the full overland route from Melbourne across Asia. He speaks French, and has a little Russian and Bahasa Indonesia.
Both are active in local community life, when not travelling. Their two children have inherited nascent nomadic tendencies.
He has crossed, or occasionally failed to cross, many of the borders studied; The Lie of the Land is all too topical now, with new wars active again in Palestine, the Caucasus and The Sahel.
Ross is the author of:
‘A Maltese Crossing’ a novella (Austin Macaulay, May 2022) 978-1398-435-032 &
‘Parallel Lives Crossing’ (Lune Valley Publishing, November 2022) 978-1916-896-659.
He is working on illustrated books on Buddhist Sculpture and then Russian Revolutionary Art, due out in 2024.view less
