There is so much to say about San Juan del Sur. Some come for the surf. Some come for the sun. Some come to visit and never leave… I come to explore a Nicaraguan Pacific Ocean beach town through food and friendship. San Juan is located on a crescent-shaped bay in the Rivas department of...
Traveling the world is one of my favorite things to do. I love to immerse myself in new places and cultures different from my own and where I come from. Whether that be people, history, food or experiences, I want to dive head first into the places I am lucky enough to visit. The world...
One of the big draws to Thailand, at least for me, is their elephant population. At the beginning of the 20th century it is estimated that there were over 100,000 pachyderms calling Thailand their home. Due to numerous reasons, experts guesstimate that there are only 4,000 left today and only a third of that number...
Chiang Mai is a bustling city during the day, but at night, the streets come alive with smells of street vendors cooking, the sounds of music wafting through the air near the gates to Old City and so many colorful scenes that the eyes strain to comprehend and take it all in. Like Bangkok, Chiang...
After a short, but sweet, weekend in Siem Reap, Cambodia to visit Angkor Wat, I have to say goodbye to my new-found friend Lee. He drops me off at the airport in plenty of time to catch my flight and waves goodbye as he maneuvers his tuk-tuk through the traffic at the terminal. I can’t...
One would think it is hard to get out of bed at such an ungodly hour. It’s 3:45 a.m. and I spring from under the covers, wide awake, like a kid on Christmas morning. The early morning air is crisp and chilly as I head outside to meet Lee. He is, as usual, early and...
The sun is barely up. The sky shines with hues of pinks and purples as I hit the streets of Bangkok to catch a ride to the airport. I am heading to Cambodia for the weekend. It’s not even close to enough time to spend in this country but being this close geographically, I can’t...
After such a wonderful first day in Bangkok I wake early and head out of the door. The streets are again filled with motor bikes and tuk-tuks whizzing by, and the sidewalk street vendors are out hawking food and trinkets. I feel confident having successfully navigated the city the day before. I have researched travel...
For those of you considering traveling to Thailand I have added some links throughout this post that may be helpful or, at least, informative! I can barely contain my excitement! Another destination, this time halfway across the world, is about to be crossed off the bucket list as I board the airplane at Denver International...
What Italy lacks in physical size, the country more than makes up for with the rich and ancient history that permeates the streets of its cities and the people living within them. Ruins of the once great Roman civilization can be found right next to contemporary office buildings and homes. People stop for an afternoon...
