They say that travel is the best teacher, I really can’t describe how my perceptions and thoughts have changed while I have been traveling around the world during the last year. I was born in a third world country, raised in a 1st world country, spoke 3 different languages at the age of 20, and […]

Conquering Eastern Africa (Madagascar & Vic Falls Too!)
The time has come to explore all of Eastern Africa. So far I have only explored Nairobi, considering that I have been officially living in Kenya for about 2 months and my South Sudan Visa is going to take longer than expected, I decided start my journey at the Victoria Falls. The main reason is […]
How Traveling is Breaking My Heart
Traveling around the world sucks, literally I can’t even begin to organize all of the thoughts, pictures, people, weird things I have put in my mouth, and unique things that I have experienced within just the last 6 months let alone the last year. This site was only meant to be a traffic generator for […]
Traveling to Israel is like Colombia, Sababa Parce!
I didn’t know that two countries that were so different could have so many similarities. Both countries happen to be bordered by 5 countries and have a great coastline. While I didn’t get to explore the coastline in Israel, be aware that the Colombian Coast is the land of hustlers. It isn’t so much the […]
Exploring the Religions in Israel: The Bahai Faith

My trip to Israel included roughly 10 or 15 Israelis otherwise known as our babysitters, 2 women from China and Singapore otherwise known as the kids, an Australian, and an Indian known […]

My 13 Day Trip Israel
I can’t really begin to describe how amazing the trip to Israel was. I got to see a side of Israel that is so far from the conflict that is always described on the news. The Israel Ministry of Tourism, Stand With Us, and the entire Once In Lifetime Crew did a great job of […]
Learning How to Speak Hebrew (Basic Expressions)
Hebrew is one of the oldest languages that is still spoken today. While traveling to Israel I was able to pick up on many of the basic expressions to get around such as “are you single” and “you are very beautiful”. Oops, wrong blog! Its a bit harder language to pick up since the vowels are […]
