As many of you know, I am co-writing a book about 20 of the 98 people who have ever visited every country in the world. The book is going to be a Q&A format with each traveler and there will be a lot of other background and substance. I just answered my questions and the […]

July 24, 2014 by 12 Comments
Western Newfoundland is a place that few people know much about. If you know Newfoundland at all you probably know it as that big island off Canada that you fly over on the air map on your plane en route to Europe and back. You may also know that several planes were grounded there just […]
Molokai is the Most Interesting Island in Hawaii
July 2, 2014 by 11 Comments
Molokai is the least populated of the inhabited Hawaiian Islands but certainly one of the most beautiful. Molokai is a step back in time; it feels like something out of the South Pacific like the Marquesas Islands or the Solomon Islands; certainly not America.

I had never heard of Via Ferrata until a few weeks ago when I was traveling in Great Britain. I was spending 3-4 days in the Lake District in Northern England for the first time since 1998 and was to do a bunch of really cool activities. To be honest I wasn’t that excited to […]

If you love golf or even if you just like golf, you’ve had fantasies of going to play in Scotland. The courses in Scotland go back centuries and the greatest players of all-time have graced the links. The style of play and the weather are foreign to most at home but you expect nothing less […]

I’m always asked about the photos I take and am in. I often get asked what my favorites are but it’s so hard to say. However, since I am way behind on my blog and I couldn’t motivate to write an actual post I thought this would be a fun, easy way to get back […]

January 30, 2014 by 25 Comments
Melbourne is one of the coolest cities I have been to in a while and is very different than I remembered it. I have been to Australia 10 times but this was only my second trip to Melbourne and first since 2003. Melbourne is vibrant, buzzing, sporting, secretive, hidden, bohemian, beautiful and there are a […]
