I decided I needed to take a last minute trip somewhere and wanted to go further away from California. I was open to destinations and after looking at cheap airfares, friends to travel with or visit and other fun travel options, I ended on returning to Australia. While I say returning, I was just in […]
I have a time share in Maui and go most years, I get lots of questions on where to go, where to eat and drink and other things. So I finally put this together as my recommendations. This was last updated in February 2019 Maui-Recommendations 2.27.19 – to print out Breakfast/brunch Longhi’s – […]
When Milena and I were planning our trip and where to scuba…she threw out a radical idea. “Want to dive with Tiger and Bull Sharks?” I remember thinking: I don’t know much about those two types of sharks I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of those sharks I’ve never heard dive masters mention we may […]
Tanna Island – Mt. Yasar Volcano We came to Tanna for two reasons. First was Mt. Yasar and the second was the John Frum Cargo Cult. The volcano delivered hands down one of the coolest experiences ever. John Frum…didn’t happen for a few reasons, but onto the highlight! Vanuatu lies right on the top of […]
We started off our 5 day/4 night trip to Vanuatu on the big island of Efate in the capital city of Port Villa. This is the main island for the with the most activity (and flights) and best gateway to connect to other islands. Getting flights in and out was more challenging as they were quite limited. Efate […]
When Milena and I decided we were going to Fiji and knew we were going to be there for New Years Eve, we first researched where we wanted to stay NYE (as we knew it would be popular and most likely already booked as we were late to planning this trip). We decided to go […]
After 26 hours of travel, including 3 planes, 2 trains, 2 boats and a 1 bus…Milena and I made it the Yasawa Islands in Fiji and the journey was worth it! I had planned to come to Fiji in 2000 with my friend Steph on our way to Australia, but due to some political issues […]
A few months ago, Megan Lester and Alex and I were talking about going to Iceland. It’s been a place we’ve all wanted to go and finally decided to make it happen…and quick. We wanted to see the Northern Lights and the season to view them generally ends in April. So we figured out our […]
Day 2 & 4 – Sipadan Island Better late than never…as I returned from this trip the first week in January, but we were busy diving all day for the week and then returning to real life got a little crazy and with so many amazing underwater photos (1,500 or so) I’m now finally posting the best of […]
I know I’m late posting this trip from the first week in January, but we were busy diving all day for the week and then returning to real life got a little crazy….so I’m catching up now in February. When I was on my Asian Adventure in the summer of 2014, I was looking for […]
