Tweet An celebrity impersonation show combines nostalgia, campiness and hilarity. They are a fun sing-along and also a gentle laugh-at, all for the price of one ticket. I am not sure I’ve ever been to a impersonation show. Wait, I take that back. I do remember stumbling into a transvestite drag show years ago in [...]

Jerusalem, the Most Historical City in the World?
Tweet Jerusalem simultaneously confounds and amazes. In the list of “Cities Unlike Any Place Else,” it has to be right up near the top. It has been a few months since I was there and I still really don’t know what to think. I spent two weeks there in Feburary and can only feel confident [...]

Siem Reap, the Tourist Town that I Love
Tweet One of the unexpected things I have learned in my recent years of travel is how much I love tourist towns. A city like Venice, which exists purely for tourism these days — love it. The little beach town of Sihanoukville, Cambodia, which is basically 90% there for tourism — feels comfortable. Cuzco, Peru [...]
Travel, Change, and Social Conscience — Why I Currently Wouldn’t be Traveling to Egypt
Tweet Interesting discussion lately on Twitter about a country that I truly love, Egypt, and am looking forward to visiting again and again. I had the chance to spend over a month in Dahab, one of my favorite beach towns in the world earlier this year on my second trip through and have loved a [...]
I am a former attorney from Arkansas who took off in December of 2008 to circle the planet with no reservations and without leaving the ground. Sixteen months later, I succeed. I am writing a book about that journey as I continue my travels around the world, looking for adventure and odd modes of transportation. Feel free to email me at: [email protected]
