Traveling around the world for the last few years has brought incredible experiences. Everyone enjoys traveling because there is no right way to travel. There are newbie’s and those afraid of adventure that travel with fanny packs and extra security features. There are the adventurous that leave everything to the unknown. There are travelers right […]
Madame WanderingTrader Chronicles: The Taj Mahal
The moment of truth was here…Taj Mahal… We woke up early and couldn’t wait to get going. We headed again to the train station to take a day trip to Agra, this was a much better scenario. During the day you can see the beautiful scenery and the beautiful faces of people going about living […]
Camels at Wadi Rum, Jordan
The camels at Wadi Rum, Jordan, were full of character. This was more of a parking lot full of camels and is where local Bedouins would take a rest (mostly with tourists). There was a local Bedouin tent where were able to try Bedouin tea otherwise known as Bedouin Whiskey. We also filmed a “Harlem […]
Staying In Shape While Traveling: The FAT MAN Project
Staying in shape while traveling is no easy task. It is hard between uncomfortable bus rides, flights in the middle of the night that could go upwards of 15 hours, and even arriving in a new city without knowing where the “healthy restaurants” are.

The Virgin Thai Massage Experience
My first Thai massage is what I would describe as glorious, interesting, and soothing. The first day I had arrived on the exotic island of Koh Samui to attend a boring island hopping yacht party the topic came up. It was after what would become the cheapest meal I have ever had on the […]

This is a guest post by Honcho Extreme, the winner of the Jordan contest! ———————————– Bedouin Whiskey and Fairytales: Jordan. Just let that sink in for a moment. “Sounds like a scam to me… if it was so easy everyone would do it… lifestyles like that only exist in fairytales…” Even my optimistic friends were […]
Gorgeous Koh Samui, Thailand
Koh Samui, Thailand is nothing short of amazing. The island just off the mainland of Thailand has the continuous glow of paradise with crisp blue and green waters and views like this. It always helps when meals are a few dollars and Thai Massages (no happy endings for me please!) are under $5). Renting two […]
Final Frontier: Visiting All Seven Continents
Visiting all seven continents is no easy task. What is it about our love of exploration that leads us into the unknown? Is it the old adage that the grass is always greener on the other side? Or is it just the lust for adventure and finding out what we cannot see or have yet […]
How We Begin Our Day In Singapore
The rooftop pool in Singapore holds some exceptional views anytime of the day. What you are seeing above is the sunset overlooking the financial district of Marina Bay. This is actually how we end our day in Singapore rather than how we being our day (this is a sunset). In the vicinity the popular ferris wheel as […]
Learning How To Speak Brazilian Portuguese: Basic Expressions
Learning how to speak Brazilian Portuguese was nothing short of challenging even though I speak Spanish. The many Brazilian Portuguese basic expressions are quite similar to Spanish but most people don’t realize that Brazilians can understand the Spanish better than Spanish people can understand Brazilian. In written form the words are nearly identical but the […]
