It has been a few days since I returned from Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Actually 2 days before the 7.6 magnitude earthquake that happened. Glad I missed that, even though it sounds like no one was really hurt. Puerto Vallarta happened in a blink. It was a wednesday evening when I was browsing FlightCentre. It was [...]

As the post’s have slowly been posted here on the site you may have realized that I am probably unable to make departure for my RTW journey until January 2014 when my car is finally paid off. I wish I could sell it, but it would never get what I owe on it so I [...]

I have yet to travel anywhere long enough to try a whole lot of new foods or get to a point where I miss the taste of home. I am curious to know how long term traveler’s eat while on the road. Obviously the point of long term travel is to get to know new [...]

This is a hypothetical post for fun and is dedicated to Google and in no way do I claim to know what is going to happen on December 21, 2012.   It is still pretty early in the year so things may seem a little quiet, but being 15 years old during the weeks and [...]

If its not snowed in that is. This is the norm for Inuvik North West Territories. The [...]

Why would a person want to give up the security (haha) of a job, walk away from relationships/family and friends in order to travel around the world long term…… Especially Alone? I originally wasn’t going to travel the world alone, however things didn’t work out and that’s ok. In fact I see more possibility and adventure [...]

2011 was basically a bust. A Partnership dissolved, more debt accumulated, very little travel…..not a good year. Now a solo act (Traveler), I see 2012 unfolding very clearly in order to live the dream life from 2013 onward. In the past few days I wrote down a few things that I would like to accomplish and because of this nifty [...]

I have yet to make more than $15 online, and that was by only a handful of clicks through Google AdSense on another travel blog that I no longer use. However knowing that just a few clicks made that amount of money on a site that had very very little traffic I feel confident in saying that [...]
