And The Winner Of This Weeks Travel Roulette Is “You might think you go home, but you are not going home.” Words you don’t want to hear when you’re travelling alone in a strange place. In my case, it was the middle of the day in Rio and the man who uttered them slipped next […]
The Birth of a Penguin-Punta Tombo Colony
The Punta Tombo Penguin Colony is one of the most amazing places to see penguins. I found this little guy after I saw the hoard of people crowded around the imaginary “do not cross line” taking pictures. Its one of two penguins chicks that I have ever seen. The other I was fortunate to see […]
New vs Old: Changes in London Architecture
The architecture in London has certainly changed over the last few years with newer building being incorporated across the city. I had a complete day to enjoy London and walking around to admire the architecture was one of the things that I really enjoyed. It was a big change from taking pictures of glaciers in […]
The Art of a Press Trip-Israel in less than a month
The art of a press trip takes a bit of skill and I won’t lie, luck. I honestly never thought that I would go on a get a press trip. Even though I have been traveling all of my life I have only been blogging for just over a year. There are so many popular […]
Visiting Nairobi, Kenya & Feeling like a Foreigner

Macaw Parrots from the Amazon-Guyana
These three Macaw Parrots were found in the zoo in Georgetown, Guyana. I find that when you feed the animals against the signs that say “please do not feed the animals” you get the best response. I didn’t give them my skittles or my grape Fanta that would harm them, I simply threw in a […]
The Intricate Marble Counter-Palermo, Sicily
The cathedrals in Palermo are some of the nicest in all of Sicily. I couldn’t find the name of the church where I found this marble counter because it was when I turned a corner and just found a massive steel door that I walked into. It was very near all of the […]
