If I paid asked you what the busiest airport in the world is, would you have any clue? I’m sure you can venture a semi-educated guess, like John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City (that would be my first guess). Nope. Not even close. Or, maybe Heathrow Airport […]

Silver Beach, Koh Samui
‘Beaching ain’t easy, but someone’s gotta do it. And I find myself in the enviable position of traveling around the world and getting to share my reviews, experiences, and, sometimes, confessions, with you, the intrepid reader. And while you think that I should be fired immediately so you can take […]
Places to Visit in St. Thomas
St Thomas is in the US Virgin Islands and is known as the gateway to the Caribbean. It was founded by the Danish in the 1600’s and is frequently visited by cruise ships. It has a history of pirates and is famous for beaches and great snorkelling. If you take […]
Samui Crystal Hotel
Koh Samui, Thailand is a pretty special place – a near-perfect balance of local Thai culture, beautiful beaches and nature, and fun shopping, nightlife, and resort-life. It’s also managed to hold on to that balance despite becoming more popular and having a greater influx of tourists. Despite the fact that […]

If you’re heading to Thailand, your trip will probably consist of laying on beautiful beaches, exploring tropical islands, and wolfing down as much of their spicy and delicious local food as possible. However, if you’re going to be in the former Kingdom of Siam for more than a quick vacation […]
Florentina Homes
Living in Dumaguete, the up and coming tourist hotspot in the central Philippines, there’s a shortage of both good, modern, western-style accommodations and the equivalent for hotels. Sure, there are plenty of simple, local-style homestays, hostels, and dormitories, or overpriced apartments that don’t even have air conditioning in the main […]
Dumaguete New Entertainment District
When I moved to Dumaguete, a small seaside city that feels like a large village in the central Philippines, a little over a year ago, it felt like a different place. Way back then (about 380 days ago!), the city was still considered the best-kept secret and offered the best […]
Why You Should Check In For Your Flights Online
I’m assuming that you’ll be booking your ticket online. It could be on one of the popular flight aggregator websites or, perhaps, you book your ticket on the actual airline’s website. Either way, you’ll have the e-ticket or notification in your email. Sure, that will get you into the airport […]
