All about Travel
It’s one of the earliest lessons we learn as a toddler. The seed is planted and it grows as we grow; it’s one of the most powerful things we as human being can do. Share. I am a complete believer in the sharing economy, and an avid user. The sharing economy has made my long-time […]
Someone recently asked me how I write about travel in a unique way to have a chance of getting seen with all of the travel articles out there; how do I stand out? My answer, “I see where everyone is going and then turn and go the other way and cover that.” I understand not […]
Most of the people I meet around the world have one thing in common, they all want to live a more simple life. And it seems like Americans, more than any other culture, are bombarded and held hostage every day by stuff. Every hour of our days are accounted for and we are normally juggling […]
Alaska is home to 8 National Parks; and 4 of the 8 are among the top 10 least visited. This may be why Alaska is in my top places to visit in the world, I love to find remote places that few people visit! Alaska is a vast wilderness, and most people only see a […]
You find yourself in Anchorage with a few extra days before or after your other Alaska tour or cruise. What to do?

It’s a weird feeling being in a locomotive and suddenly trying to bring the train to a stop; I actually do know this feeling.

The train comes to a clunky stop in the middle of nowhere surrounded by miles of unending forest and wilderness. Normally this isn’t a […]
The Camino de Santiago is the ultimate epic hike. It’s an ancient pilgrimage route to the shrine of the apostle St. James in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. There are dozens of routes that lead from all part of Europe to Santiago de Compostela. However, the most popular route is the Way of Saint […]
As we floated down the St. George River I asked Don why he likes fishing. “Fish don’t live in ugly places,” he said as he kept his eyes focused on the water ahead of us. I looked around at the thick green forest surrounding this still river, the bright blue sky, and listened to the […]
I’ve been around a lot of farmers in my life. Both of my grandfathers were farmers, and many of my uncles. Abigail Carroll doesn’t fit the normal farmer role; she studied French and Spanish literature in college. Abbey may only have 6.8 acres to farm, but she is definitely a farmer. She uses a little […]
