Welcome!

I am starting this site to supplement my pictures/videos from my travels and to provide some random commentary. I hope to post something at least once a week (but don’t hold me to that): discussing my latest trip, upcoming adventures and how I’m prepping for those, or just what’s happening in my life right now.  While I’m traveling or once I get back you may get a few more posts once I get the pictures/videos up for a day by day/experience update.

I hope you enjoy and come along the journey with me. Fair warning I have a dry sense of humor (lending towards the dark side – I laugh and joke about some things that maybe I shouldn’t), and tend to do the ba-dum-bum kind of dad jokes.

How I operate:

In my day to day life, I am a planner (its actually my job) so I find when it comes to travel I like to be a little more unstructured.  I find it hard to plan something more than a few weeks to a month or so out. In general once I decide to go somewhere as long as I feel safe and have a place to sleep at night sometimes it’s fun just to see where the day takes you.  Just remember and repeat this mantra: Passport, tickets, money, passport, tickets, money… As long as you have that you are covered and anything you forget you can get along the way.

Whirlwind travel:

The past year was really busy at work so travel was limited, but once I launched a project in late March my itchy feet were dying to get out I had quite a few trips recently. Almost too many! For me that says a lot, so I’m excited to slow it down over the next few weeks as I did 3 trips over the past 5 weeks. It wasn’t really planned that way but some opportunities came up that I just couldn’t say no to.  That is unusual for me so right now I have a backlog of pictures and summaries to get through. So stay with me and you’ll hear all about it.

That’s all for now. Happy travels everyone!
