  • Video: 3 Days in the Wild West
    I spent 3 days on America’s “last frontier” in Utah on my recent road trip. Watch my experience here!

  • Corona Day Trips: SF Bay Area
    If you’re like me, you’re probably antsy to get back to traveling. However, I still don’t think that leisure travel, especially flying abroad, is the best idea. So, that leaves us with road trips. Now, I’m going on a long road trip in just under 2 weeks, but for those of you who don’t have…
  • My travel plans post-coronavirus
    You’ve probably heard this over and over again but travel will return after the coronavirus. It’s not a matter of if but when. However, travel won’t be the same when it does come back. Airlines are still operating with very limited flights and many countries are still not letting foreigners in, or, if they are,…
  • I watched the World Series live for 20 bucks
    I don’t know anyone who works for the Washington Nationals or Houston Astros. But here’s how I saw a game of the 2019 World Series live for only $20 AND it was perfectly legal. (None of that sneaking in stuff.) It was Sunday, October 27, 2019. A light breeze drifted through the DC air, but…
  • Hiking the finest walk in the world
    Whenever something is considered to be the best or finest or grandest, I always approach it with skepticism. However, when it comes to the Milford Track, it lives up to the hype as the “finest walk in the world.”
  • When I saw a live snake venom extraction
    Essentially, they purposely pissed off the snake with a stick so it would want to bite down and release venom from its fangs. But, while that was happening, another guy would grab the snake by its head and the snake would bite into a beaker, and the venom would drip into the container.
  • Movies and Travel
    Movies are how we escape the real world. They can transport us across the universe and to the deepest parts of our imagination. These films use locations across the globe to represent capital cities, different planets, exotic temples, and much more. Scroll through below to see filming locations and their respective scenes in several blockbuster…
  • Stories from the 9th longest flight in the world
    Just over 8,446 miles traveled. About 17 hours in length. One (1) seat in economy class for the entire trip. That’s what I was facing on December 21, 2018 when I arrived at 7am at San Francisco International Airport for my flight across the Pacific Ocean to Singapore.
  • When half a continent lost power
    Now, how does half a continent lose power? No, this is a legitimate question, how does half a continent lose power! Because that’s what happened to all of Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, and parts of Brazil and Chile on June 16, 2019.
  • My best souvenir
    Many of you may not know this, but I’m actually a multi-billionaire… in Zimbabwe.
  • My travel music
    Part of travel is the journey, as well as the destination. And whether that journey is a 17-hour-long plane ride or a 1-hour-long car ride, you’re going to need something to entertain you.
  • My favorite part about travel
    The best part about traveling is the food. No question about it. It’s simply the best way to get to know a particular culture, and fill your stomach in the process.
  • My scariest travel experience
    I consider myself a fairly seasoned traveler, having been to six continents and journeyed extensively on my own. However, there are certain experiences that rattle me to the core and make me realize just how vulnerable and prepared for anything you have to be while traveling. 
  • When I got involved in South American civil rights protests (twice!)
    Ok, so this is a bit of a weird story. I didn’t plan on being involved in either protest, but, as with most things in travel (and in life), all the interesting stories don’t come from planned events. 
  • Top 15 Travel Photos
    I decided to sift through my Camera Roll this past week and compiled my top 15 travel photos. These photos are from as recently as last month and far back as five years ago and range across six continents. Enjoy!
  • The time I met Harrison Ford in the Galapagos (I snorkeled with him!)
    However, the rarest creature I saw in the Galapagos wasn’t a native, in fact it was actor Harrison Ford and his wife Calista Flockhart. 
  • The time I almost got eaten by African Wild Dogs (with photos!)
    And there they were, about 35 African Wild Dogs, surrounding us on all sides. Obviously, we were scared sh*tless and I can’t speak for my family, but I was paralyzed with fear. All the while, our guide offered us NO help whatsoever and kept on taking photos.
  • Should you travel during the coronavirus outbreak?
    No.
