Bus to Jiri

NEPAL | Monday, 30 Sep 2013 | Views [2643]

Altitude: 1951m We woke up early today to catch the bus to Jiri where we'll start our trekking adventure to Everest Base Camp. We're doing it a little different to most who usually just fly into Lukla and start the trek from there. We're walking in ... Read more >

Live in Liverpool

UNITED KINGDOM | Thursday, 22 Aug 2013 | Views [535]

What I like most about being in Liverpool is the music. Yes, the greatest band ever, the Beatles, was born here and I'm here on a pilgrimage. Even though they've disbanded and half of them are no longer, their legacy lives on strong in this vibrant ... Read more >

ARGENTINA | Thursday, 25 Apr 2013 | Views [1042]

I'm on my way to Iguazu on a 17 hour bus with Via Bariloche. Sitting in a cama seat is like business class on a bus. Leaving Buenos Aires was difficult. I made a wise choice picking Federico's home on AirBnB. Not only was I blown away by his very ... Read more >

Happy Easter from New York!

USA | Sunday, 31 Mar 2013 | Views [619]

I nearly skipped Easter mass today because I was slightly hesitant about going to a foreign church. I was unsure of how the mass would be, what the parish was like, what the dress code would be, among all the other things a fearful person might wonder ... Read more >

Why not Manhattan?

USA | Tuesday, 26 Mar 2013 | Views [432]
