Update from Quarantine Life

Hi everyone! This is my first personal post that isn’t directly travel related, except that some travel is included.

My girlfriend, Kendra, and I decided to road trip 11 hours to Chicago, Illinois over Indigenous People’s Day/Columbus Day weekend. It was my first time visiting Chicago and we accomplished…

Iceland – Days 5 & 6, Return to Reykjavík, The End

Iceland – Day 1

My next grand adventure to talk about on this blog is my return to Iceland. As a preface, I visited this country two summers ago solo and loved it on a deeper level than usual. The extreme landscapes, the cool summer breezes, the folklore and history; all of these things affected me in such a…

Great Exuma, Part I
For the first time in I don’t know how many years, my whole immediate family got to spend a vacation together. Our destination? Great Exuma, Bahamas. We arrived around noon on June 23rd on the lesser populated island (compared to Nassau) and immediately ran into problems. I had a drone! After immigration and into customs,…
