The day I found the pizza I was looking for…

Posted on December 15, 2011 by admin

It has taken a long time but I’ve finally found pizza in South East Asia that at the very least, does the job. I won’t begin to try and convince you that this holds up to American standards as far as pizza goes but it’s by far the best pizza in Medan that I’ve found… Continue reading

TEFL Certification Day 10 & 11: Learning About Being a Teacher

Posted on April 15, 2011 by admin

I’ve known for a long time that I wanted to try the teaching thing out. I spent the better part of a decade strapped to a headset and stuck in a cubicle so it was about time I freed myself from those confines and got involved in a job that a bit more rewarding. The… Continue reading

Here Come the Job Offers!

Posted on April 1, 2011 by admin

Well, if it’s one thing I’ve learned through travel is that plans don’t often stick. One minute I’m looking to teach in Hong Kong and the next minute I’m focused on Indonesia.

Spontaneity

Posted on March 9, 2010 by admin

I woke up this morning and got a Facebook message from an old elementary school classmate of mine who told me about a deal Jetblue was doing for flights from JFK to various airports.  $10 each way plus taxes and the flight came to $41.  With out hesitation I booked my Tampa to NYC flight.… Continue reading

Manchester United!!!!!!!

Posted on January 15, 2007 by admin

After 2 days. After… 2 grueling days. After 2 hot, stinky, disgusting, bumpy, exciting, overwhelming, enjoyable, crazy, uplifting, terrible, annoying and beautiful days on an Ethiopian bus, I have arrived back in the capital…. Addis Ababa. I don’t have a hotel room right now, I haven’t had a hot shower in almost a week and… Continue reading
