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 […]

It’s New Years Eve morning and time to leave Inle Lake. When we left, our taxi driver was a young man. He spoke to us most of the way to both practice his English and learn more about America. Most of the conversation revolved around Trump (as many of our conversations in Myanmar have). He […]
When I started to ask and read about Myanmar, I heard if I had time to make it to Inle Lake. I hadn’t met anyone that had, as they all ran out of time, but Milena and I decided we like the outdoors and we wanted to make this a priority and I’m so glad […]
Milena and I had just one full day to explore and we know the one thing we wanted to see was the Shwedagon Padoda at sunset. So we planned the rest of our day to ensure we ended there. Bogyokr Aung San Market We were told to check out this outdoor local market, called Bogyokr […]
I feel so lucky to have gotten the upgrade to Business Class and was going to take advantage as best I could. After taking off in San Francisco for a long 15 and a half hour flight to Hong Kong, settling into my own personal Business Class pod, it was the best treat ever as […]
