Flying over the beginning flecks of islands amongst the clear blue ocean, darkened and lightened with depth, I was reminded of images I’ve seen in my undergrad ecology class textbooks. Darwin’s famed Galapagos Islands, whose contribution to evolutionary advances seemed almost mythical when studied in college, was now about to be a real experience. Getting to...
Traveling with pets is ridiculously stressful, especially during the holidays when everyone seems to kick up a few notches of crazy, and airports resemble a herd of confused gazelles, except a lot less graceful. But for most of us, our pets are part of the family, so traveling with them is essential, even if it’s not easy to do. I travel with my dog Oscar...
Winter usually means cold weather for many people, but don’t forget that half of the world is in the opposite season! Well, technically even for some people in the U.S. like me, who live in year-round sunshine and warmth! But while many people flock away from the cold to warmer destination in the winter, I like to flock to the snow since I never get to have a...
Surfing is something I’ve wanted to do since high school, especially since I grew up by the beach in Jupiter, Florida where surfing was quite the popular thing to do.

Wanderlust is fulfilled, and the meaning of pura vida is explained when you visit the untouched, hidden gem of a jungle surf town in Nosara, Costa Rica.
Typically, I don’t take interest in cruises since I’m more of an adventure junky than a vacation chaser. But when I read the invitation for the inaugural sailing of the Royal Caribbean ship, “Anthem of the Seas” out of its new home port in New Jersey, I saw something that I absolutely had to go see. It was a picture of a giant bubble extended far up from the neon-lit...
When you start to really travel a lot, you tend to also start noticing a lot of little annoying things that can be quite the inconvenience. Money, is obviously super annoying, mostly because I never have it, but also packing can get pretty aggravating, especially if you don’t have the right gear. For me, it’s hard to have the right gear for two reasons; I...
Ghosts and ghouls ain’t got shit on some of the scary things that can happen when you’re traveling. Especially if you’re someone who travels all the time or constantly seeks adventure like myself and these awesome travel bloggers and experts. It’s not likely that something scary will always happen when you travel (although everyone’s...
Stay 1500 ft up in the El Yunque jungle at a bed and breakfast that has an infinity pool over the rainforest, and two hiking trails to secret waterfalls!
