I consider Spunky Girl to be my mentor in travel blogging. She jumped in head first awhile back and has motivated me to follow her ever since. She taught me it is OK to travel blog when you’re not travelling. I wanted to feature her blog this Friday so be sure to check it out… Continue reading
Water wars in the streets of Pattaya
I’m missing Thailand today, big time. I was able to enjoy the Songkran festival celebrating the Thai new year a few years ago. Basically, the entire country enters into one big water gun fight. I loved it. Unfortunately, I was recovering from a moped accident I suffered in Ko Pha Ngan and had some open… Continue reading
Shifting Gears
I’m shifting gears a bit in my current situation and taking the dive back into full time employment a little earlier than expected. I only have 8 more credits left before graduation so that means I can take two, four credit online courses over the summer. I originally planned to go full time after graduation… Continue reading
London and Hong Kong Galleries Added!
I just added two more galleries for London and Hong Kong. Hong Kong is one of my favorite places in the world. I added some of the select photos that I took while there for an extended weekend in 2007. I’m looking forward to living there someday. The London photos date back to 2004 and… Continue reading

These are select photos from these countries that I wanted to share, however; you can still check out the rest of my pictures on my Flickr account over on the left… Continue reading
Dave’s ESL Cafe
Not that his website needs any promotion because it is the premier stop for TEFL information. Now that graduation is just around the corner I have to put more serious effort into researching my TEFL options. I added a link to his website because it has great resources and an excellent forum for up to… Continue reading
Spontaneity
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
Beer and Pizza Review: Late Colombia Edition!
This is a late addition to one of my features on my old blog. Beer and Pizza Reviews. I don’t pretend to be some sort of beer connoisseur and I certainly don’t pretend to be someone who didn’t need Google to figure out how to spell, “connoisseur.” However, I love pizza and I love beer.… Continue reading
Haiti is not a Headline
First, my thoughts go out to all of those effected by the earthquake in Haiti on 1/12/10. I know so many people have been effected by the tragedy, in Haiti and the in Haitian diaspora around the world (especially the United States). It seems entirely unfair that just as the country was beginning to show… Continue reading
