Weird Activities and Awkward Encounters at home and abroad
Hey, I missed you guys! I thought this would be a good time to return and explain my absence and abundance of guest posts recently. I’ve had a couple of events that have really facilitated some personal and professional reflection, and getting back into the grind has honestly been a little difficult. Doing stuff is…
With summer quickly approaching (in the Southern Hemisphere), it’s the perfect time to start planning your road trips. What’s not to love about the wind in your hair, belting out your favourite tunes with your favourite people, and the sun beaming down? If you’re lucky enough to be in Sydney during the summer you’re going…
Get ready to revolutionize the way you travel. Really, how have you lived your whole life without these? *Inflatable Loungers I have seen ads for these far a while now, usually with skinny gorgeous bikini models lounging on the beach. That seems great, but my first thought was this; “if I owned this product, I…
I don’t even know where to begin an annual recap of 2016. It was just a really rough year. I experienced some pretty jarring personal loses this year, that’s cause my life to change in a very noticeable way, but it’s also just been hard year for humanity. We’ve lost a lot of people we…
This isn’t the piece I intended to write when I booked my first trip to Thailand, but life’s unpredictable sometimes (even when you have polls). Back in April, I was planning to attend the lantern festival in Chiang Mai after seeing dazzling photos on Pinterest of hundreds of flaming lanterns ascending into the sky in…
I am entirely sick of this “entitled Millennial” BS. Millennials are certainly not the first generation that their predecessors have decided weren’t quite up to snuff and in a few years I’m sure our children won’t understand our struggles or how those struggles have made us somehow superior to them, what with their time traveling…
I recently got to spend Bacardi’s 153 birthday in the best place I can think of to celebrate, the Distillery at Casa Bacardi in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The Distillery was the only thing on my absolutely must see list on this trip. I was content to just wander around the Disney Fantasy and St…
Disclaimer, if you couldn’t tell by the title, this is going to be a rage fueled rant. Proceed accordingly. For those of you that haven’t heard, American garbage-chocolate producer Hershey recently won a lawsuit due to some licensing issues I don’t totally understand that has inhibited the import of British-made Cadbury chocolates. Hershey can…
“Where to next?” It’s a daunting question that I’m asked fairly often, but most recently by my family at Thanksgiving dinner. It’s a question that makes me a little nervous because I don’t currently have anything big on the books. Of course, I don’t usually until a few days/weeks/hours before, but it’s still causes…
Black Friday marks the beginning of the holiday gift buying rush. While you’re in a crowded store at 4am trying not to get trampled en route to a Ferbie (or this years equivalent, I don’t know, I’m old and childless), keep these things in mind for the travel enthusiast in your life. Most of us…
