There are a lot of brands, blogs, and instagrams out there that promote adventure, but what does that actually mean? What does is mean to have an adventure, to be adventurous, to live an adventurous life? I’ve been giving this some thought lately. You don’t have to go far, or have a lot of money, or tons of free time…
Hi friends! I am back after a taking some time off from blogging. The time off gave me some time to refocus on what I want to do here and think about the type of content I want to produce for you. I had been feeling like everything I was writing was generic and had already been written about. There…
Summer is in full swing here in California and I’m loving getting outside and enjoying the sunshine! After spending the last eight weeks on the road I’m happy back in Tahoe for a while. I’m also going to be taking a bit of a blogging break for the summer. Sometimes you just need a little time to regroup and refocus,…
I’ve been trying to figure out the best way to tell this story, it’s not particularly insightful, and it doesn’t have any practical travel tips. It’s just a mildly funny story about a situation that happen while I was in Indonesia. So here goes… For our last day on the island of Flores I wanted to go see the Komodo…
Southern Bali is beautiful and mellow, it’s the perfect place to escape the party scenes of Kuta and the tourist packed streets of Ubud. The sandy beaches are perfect for relaxing and top notch surf spots are all along the coast. STAY Aman Gati Hotel: Perched up on the cliff above Balangan beach, the Aman Gati Hotel offers Bali style…
Indonesia is a beautiful and magical country, I loved getting to explore just a few of the 17,000 islands last fall. We spent two weeks exploring Bali, Gili Trawangan, and Komodo. Packing for the warm weather and the beach is pretty easy, but remember to bring a few conservative pieces. Indonesia as a whole is fairly modest when it comes to…
Indonesia is the world’s largest island country, made up of over 17,000 islands. From the bustling island of Java to the tiny uninhabited islands it would take several lifetimes to explore all of it. You can however, see and do some amazing stuff with just two weeks in Indonesia. From the jungles of Bali to the beaches of the Gili’s, to…
A few weeks ago, I headed down to Indio for my sixth Coachella. It’s one of my favorite music festivals, and is sort of like spring break for adults. It was a great weekend full of good times with friends and tons of good music. We spent days lazing around the pool and danced away the nights under the desert…
We’ve all had those moments while traveling, everything is going just fine, you’ve got everything together, and then in a second it all goes to shit. I had one of those wonderful moments at the Bangkok airport going through Thai passport control. We were leaving Thailand to catch a flight to Indonesia, and Rob went through before me no problem. Then…
One question I seem to get a lot lately is “I want to go to Thailand, where should I go?”. It really depends on what kind of trip you are looking for. If you are looking for something quiet and mellow and to just chill on a beach you should probably avoid Koh Phangan especially during the full moon party….
