– Saying goodbye to Vinales, I was off on an all day bus to Trinidad. In seven hours, I left western Cuba and arrived in the city of Trinidad, which is in central Cuba. I was supposed to have a woman waiting for me at the bus with a sign for her casa, but when […]
– After two days in Havana…I was ready to leave and get out to more of the countryside. I decided to head west to the city or village of Vinales. This is about three and a half hours outside of Havana and is supposed to be one of the most beautiful places in Cuba. I […]
– Once I was settled in my hotel room, I thought I would go explore a little and try to find dinner. Only problem was walking around the streets was annoying. I couldn’t walk more than two steps without some local man coming up to me or yelling at me from the doorstep he was […]
Just a quick email as I’m having a blast in Cuba. The Internet is very slow, expensive and hard to find, so I will do all my updates once I get to Canada and back to the USA in July, but I wanted to at least have some notice so there are no worries. -I’ve […]
– After 18 long days in Cuba, I’m finally back in a civilized country and can use the Internet to update my website and add photos. Overall, I have many thoughts and feelings about Cuba and will try to share those with stories that kept me sane and almost drove me insane! LEAVING MEXICO – […]

Luckily enough, the journey worked well and after an hour ferry, many lies about buses to Mexico, I […]
– After spending a few days in Caye Caulker soaking up the sun and diving, my time was about to change. The girls had gone on a snorkeling trip, that I decided to skip since I did it nine years ago when I was in Belize. I thought a day of me time was more […]
– As soon as Kirsty and I got off the boat, we were stampeded, I mean greeted, by so many taxi drivers (in golf carts) and people trying to get us to stay at their hotel. It was super annoying, and we kept asking people to leave us as we had a reservation (even though […]
– After eight hours of waiting and sailing, we arrived at the port in Dangriga. At this point we were wondering what we do with immigration, but at that moment, the Belize immigration got on to do our passports. I was hoping I wouldn’t have any problems with my Canadian passport and the “switch a […]
