U Bein Bridge

I visited the U Bein Bridge on a rainy day in Burma (Myanmar), and took a boat ride out even though it was pouring. The bridge is supposedly the longest teak-wood bridge in the world (1.2 km), and you can buy trinkets and jewelry from sellers that...

My view from a Kasbah in Morocco

I can remember every smell from my first Stay in Morocco... I landed and walked into the Marrakech-Menara airport where Huge Arabic script greets you from the wall... I presume saying Welcome Weary Traveler, or something along those lines. I...

Jackson, Jackson, Wyoming

Oh, Wyoming!

Having been raised on National Geographic magazines, I have always been fascinated by the western landscape of America. The jagged peaks of Tetons have been on my to-see list ever since I have known the works of Ansel Adams. Last labor day...

Siwa at Sunset

The day had been spent speeding (and tumbling in my case) down enormous sand dunes on questionable snowboards, a pastime that filled one's head with sand and spirit with unending exhilaration. We had swum in hot springs and very cold springs,...

Stone Forest

This is the Stone Forest I walked about two miles climbing over hills and mountains to get to. I was dead tired when I got there. Long story.

a window to Central Puerto Rico

ON TOP OF THE WORLD: This is my favorite hike by far! Cueva Ventana ("Window Cave") is a beautiful, scenic hole in the side of a mountain that opens up to a lush, green valley down below. You'll trample through mud, hunker down under low hanging...

Boseong Green Tea Plantation, Jeollanam-do, South Korea.

South Korea. To the world it is bright neon lights, fuel-efficient cars, genetic research and kimchi. The Land of the Morning Calm is deservedly lauded as a spreading ground for future tech and well known as the K-pop powerhouse, though Seoul is...

The Pailon del Diablo

The little city of Banos is situated on the side of volcano Tungurahua and has gorgeous waterfalls like this one, the Pailon del Diablo or Devil's Cauldron. To get up this high the trail first drops about 1000 feet into the valley and then climbs...

Take Time To Enjoy The View

I had seen the church on the top of Likavittos Hill through the lens of my camera from the Acropolis and was determined to see it in person. It is a LONG walk (in particular if you add in the distance to the top of the hill), but definitely worth...
