Walking into Tayrona National Park is not a matter that you should take lightly. Most days here on the Colombian coast you will find that it feels well over 100 degrees with 100% humidity. Many take their time but since I am a stubborn 27 years young I decided to charge my way through the […]
Door Knocker in Cartagena
This is a picture of one of the many door knockers that the old city in Cartagena has to offer. I really liked all of the different knockers that were on the doors. Coming up I am going to share just a post on all the different door knockers that there were all throughout the […]
PLANNING MY TRIP AROUND THE WORLD: TAKING MY TALENTS TO AFRICA

Taxi Hunting & Slapping Prostitutes In Medellin, Colombia
I can assure you this post is nothing more than a humorous PG scandal. **Disclaimer** You might laugh. You can always hear when there is a soccer match that either involves the Colombian national team or the team from Medellin. When a goal is almost scored you can hear the “oohhhhhhh” from homes across the […]
Mosque in Paramaribo, Suriname
This mosque in Paramaribo is no regular mosque. What’s so unique about the mosque is how it sits right next to a Jewish synagogue.

Visiting Cali, Colombia for the first time
I never felt at home more than I have in Medellin, Colombia. Even when I first arrived I kind of felt like I was home. I had to visit the city of Cali, Colombia because I kept hearing rants and raves about it. Everyone told me that it’s a bit like Medellin only warmer and […]
Driving The Atacama Desert & Chilean Coast
I decided to spend roughly 5 days in the Atacama Desert to see all of the region. I honestly didn’t know much about all the things to do in Chile until I started living there and talking to locals. Once I arrived I was blown away by all of the unique things to see and […]
Tucan in the Amazon-Galibi Nature Reserve, Suriname
At the Galibi Nature Reserve in Suriname they have a completely open zoo available for those who select to come. Normally people come for the sea turtles and if you have read my post on why environmentalists are the enemy you would see that this tour would have been completely wasted if it wasn’t for the zoo.
