After our San Blas Adventure, Josh and I grabbed a private room at Hostel Casa Areka in Panama City. With a fridge, a desk and pancakes included for breakfast we were on for a solid week. We had five nights in Panama City and we decided to hit the ground running. Literally. I’ve been stepping …
Two years ago I hit publish on the Journey Era blog. Little did I know, the moment my finger clicked that button would change my life forever. I was living on Oahu, a tropical island in Hawaii. I was in the last semester of my journalism degree. Sitting in the back row of classes, I …
90 weeks. Yikes. That’s a figure that puts this unquantifiable journey into a numerical perspective. My 90th week on the road was spent in Bali. Yes, I am still here. I’ve made Bali my base for this three-week period in an attempt to recover my body, catch up on work and chill. It hasn’t been …
THE WEEKLY #90: CO-WORKING & CO-LIVING AT OUTSITE IN CANGGU, BALI
The Nusa Islands Blogger Workshop has finally arrived. At the end of 2017, I opened up applications for my first ever workshop. 500 people applied and I chose the seven bloggers and content creators who I thought had an adventurous spirit and were committed to working hard to becoming a digital nomad. Fast-forward to March …
My third week on Kauai was highlighted by a three-night stay at Koloa Landing Resort. I also linked up with some other photographers on the island and went on some more epic hikes. One of the hikes led me to a towering waterfall in the middle of the jungle and the other led me to the …
THE WEEKLY #83: KOLOA LANDING RESORT & EPIC HIKING ADVENTURES
Each week on the road brings forth a new set of challenges. Those challenges are often slightly more uncomfortable when you refuse to pay for a $45 a night hostel and its pouring with rain all week. The generous couch surf hosts of Kauai had dried up after serving me well in the first week. …
There is a ton that goes on behind the scenes of a blog. There is boring stuff like search engine optimization and more interesting times like reaching out to a tourism board or brand to see if they want to collaborate. I reached out to a tourism board this week to see if they wanted …
This past year has been mental. I’ve averaged almost two flights a week, been to 20+ countries and worked on numerous campaigns around the world. I’ve written a blog post every second day and spent hours and hours building my online presence and creating unique content. I thought what better way to end the year …
During my 71st week on the road, I joined up with some unlikely travel companions. Tourism Philippines were putting on an event or travel agents from Australia and New Zealand. They bring over all the travel agents to familiarize them with the Philippines, hotels and other travel factors. Tourism Philippines does this so its easier …
When I decided to head off an adventure to Myanmar I only had a vague idea about what a 3-week journey would look like. I knew there were ancient temples and pagodas and floating villages but the rest was going to be a discovery. Each town I have stopped at has been something different. There …
It’s my second week of exploration in Myanmar with my sister joining the adventure. I am still trying to adapt to just how quiet this place is right now. It could be that I’ve become accustomed to getting yelled at and hassled the moment I stepped out my door in India or it could be …
The second week of exploring Indonesia with the Indonesia Tourism Board was absoultely mental. Day 4 On the fourth day of our scuba trip through Indonesia, I woke early before taking a walk down the streets of Alor. Friendly locals took photos with us and said good morning as they began another day on the …
