A Year of Adventures
Why I’m Returning to Chiang Mai, In March!
Believe it or not, I’m not writing this in response to a post by another blogger about why they don’t like Chiang Mai. Nope. I’m writing this post because I barely booked a flight from Bangkok to Chiang Mai. I haven’t booked my flight to Bangkok yet, but I’ve covered my trip from Bangkok to [...]
Dear Massimo, Sorry about the tablecloth…
My intentions were good. I heard about your restaurant from Tabatha, and to avoid places like Taco Bell and Boston Pizza, I decided to throw caution to the wind and treat myself to dinner at The Rainbow Room at the Crowne Plaza. My reservation was for 5:00 p.m., the first seating of the evening. It’s [...]
Snowshoeing at Thirty Bench Winery
**Author’s note: Last year I participated in my first snow sport, snowboarding. It was fun. It was also a little painful. I don’t normally do snow sports, however I feel that I need to try new things and expand my horizons. PLUS, my complete ineptitude could make a great story. At least that is what [...]
I Pigged Out in New York
It’s true I pigged out in New York. It was hard not to. How on earth could I travel to New York and starve myself?! No, no, that just would not do! The afternoon I arrived in New York, I was slammed with appointments. Touring a couple of hotels, then going to Brooklyn to check [...]
A Visit to Coney Island
The subway car was nearly empty as it stopped at W 8th Street NY Aquarium. Alisha and I got off and walked through the station, down the stairs and onto the street. The sun was shinning, the sky was clear and blue, the air was cool, but not cold and there was no snow on [...]
Mongol Rally
London or Prague?
Photo Credit That seems to be the question we’re asking ourselves lately. Many of the ralliers will be starting in London at Goodwood. I hear it’s a party like no other, which is quite tempting. However, some ralliers will start two days later in Prague. The party is not as grand, but there is still [...]
Prepping for the Mongol Rally is Really Involved
I’ve prepped for trips before, but I’ve been very lax. I do basic things and leave a lot of things alone. I mean, how fun is travel when you plan every single detail before you leave?! What is the fun in that?! Yeah, Mongol Rally has kind of trashed those habits. Fast. We all know [...]
Press Releases, Sponsors, Web Design & More!
The past week has been mental! Christmas, Boxing Day, New Years Eve…Plus the in-between days when I was struggling to write articles that are due, work on Mongol Rally things, hang-out with family and celebrate with friends. I’m not complaining though, after weeks of family only time, I was more than happy to escape and spend a [...]
2012 Travel Tech Gear
2012 will be an epic year of travel for me (I’m sure you’re sick of me saying this by now). I have two rather large adventure trips planned (plus a few smaller trips). To say that I am excited would be an understatement (hmmm…I think I’ve said that before as well). After all, I’ll be [...]
The Lotus Children’s Charitable Trust, 2012 Mongol Rally Charity
“In 1993 Didi Kalika, an Australian yoga teacher living in UB was moved by the plight of the children living on the streets and founded the Lotus Children’s Center. She started simply by giving food and basic medical care, and soon realized that serious change was necessary to make real impact.” A Little History Over [...]

Staying at Yotel in New York
I walked through the front door into a clean, white, modern style lobby. On the left wall was a row of flat screen computers used for self check-in, to my right was a glass wall. On the other side of the glass wall was a huge mechanical arm and rows of floor to ceiling square [...]
