Hiking to Havasu Falls was one of the most amazing backpacking trips I've ever been on. It's one of my favorite places on the planet as it's beauty is incredible and it feels completely isolated from the outside world. Since Havasupai is such a difficult place to get permits for, you want to make sure that you're fully prepared...

There's no surprise or denying the beauty of Antelope Canyon. What did surprise me however, was how obviously it was that making money is the name of the game when it comes to Antelope Canyon. It's another amazingly beautiful location that has become "insta-famous" and thus, fallen victim to the craze of social media - this place is more...

"I did all of this while you were watching TV" This the slogan I most remember from my visit to Tinkertown just outside Albuquerque New Mexico. Tinkertown is quite impressive. It took its creator Ross Ward 40 years to make. Now considered to be a "folk museum", Tinkertown is probably the most expansive displays of antique toys and wood carved...

One of the most incredible yet bizarre roadside attractions I've seen. This guy really loves God...a lot. So much so that he created a tribute to him near Niland, along the Salton Sea, in California. It's a good thing that his God is a loving God. Salvation was created by Leonard Knight, a Korean War veteran, and is his...

I'm not a religious person, but this is the smallest, most adorable little chapel you'll ever see! It's worth a stop if you're passing by, but not worth going out of your way for. What To Expect The tiny chapel is 8 ft. x 12 ft. on the inside. There are six tiny pews, which are supposedly enough to fit 12...

When I tell someone that I have a little travel blog that I run for fun, the next question is always - what's your Instagram? And the answer is: I don't have one. I mean, I have a personal one for myself as a human, but I don't have one for the travel blog that shows all of the...

Stop with the excuses! The livestock industry is terrible for our planet and our health. I've talked with many carnivores who have considered giving vegetarianism a try and know it's a good idea and would be better for them and the planet, BUT.... there's always a "but". So here you go - every misconception and excuse I've heard as...

If you're curious about giving a vegetarian diet a try, one of the best ways to start easing into it is by substituting your current meat intake with meat-alternative products. Maybe do this once or twice a week to start if you aren't too sure about it, or if you're ready to go cold-turkey (pun intended), incorporating meat substitutes...

Let that sink in for a second..... all of the coral reefs, including the Great Barrier Reef, which is the size of the entire east coast of the United States, could be gone within 30 years due to climate change. That is a staggering fact. If you'd like some reference material for this information, here you go. Last night I...

The Best Environmental Practices To Reduce Your Impact When enjoying and adventuring in the outdoors there is a set of standards and ethics that are best practices for everyone to abide by. These are not rules or regulations and there are no penalties for not following them (other than shame from your fellow campers), but they help to keep our...
