My Recent Road Trip in Italy
For me, there’s no better way to see a country than via car; especially in Europe. A road trip in Italy is the only reasonable way to see a lot of the country and do it on your terms and at your convenience. A road trip in Italy is also just plain phenomenal. I just […]
My Day in Korcula, Croatia
One of the main reasons I was excited to go on my latest cruise with Azamara Club Cruises was that it stopped in several destinations I hadn’t been to. Korcula, Croatia was one of those destinations. I admittedly knew nothing about Korcula (Pronounced Corch-yooluh); not even that it was the birthplace of Marco Polo-a man […]

Two Days in Ushuaia, Argentina
Ushuaia is one of those places on every travelers list even if they don’t realize it. It’s so enticing all the way at the bottom of the world. It’s the southernmost city on the world, a main gateway to Antarctica and a city of over 85,000 people. Ushuaia is definitely Argentinian but it’s completely geared […]

A lot of people overlook Scottsdale and the Phoenix area in general for other destinations in the Southwest like Las Vegas, Southern California or even Santa Fe. That’s fine with me, as it […]
