“I hope you remember this,” the cheerful whitewater rafting instructor said in a Thai accent. I hope I remember it, too. I was on a two-day adventure hike in the mountains of Thailand and this was the last adventure my dozen fellow trekkers and I were encountering: rafting – both whitewater and bamboo.

Galicia, the northwestern most region of Spain, is unlike any other Spanish community. The frigid northern Atlantic brings a great deal of moisture into the region, making it one of the most fertile in Spain. Galicia may be soggy, but it’s green as can be. The fertile lands surrounding the Miño River make wine production [...]
I recently traveled through Guatemala for 2 weeks and visited several historical locations along the way. What really attracted me to Guatemala this year was that 2012 is the year of the Mayans. Throughout Guatemala there are more then 1,500 Mayan ruins, most of which are located in the northern region of the Petén Basin. [...]

One of the highlights of a trip to Europe is to explore the long, fascinating history that you’ll find in cities across the continent. Almost every capital city has an ”old town” where you can admire buildings dating back several hundred years and eat in restaurants that have been serving food in the same place [...]

We exchanged a couple of emails and I learned about their upcoming six-month trip to four countries that I have never been [...]
I am soon heading off to Galicia in mid-March. Galicia is the northernmost region of Spain known for its mountainous terrain, word-class seafood, and for being the home to one of the most frequented pilgrimage sites in the world- Santiago de Compostela. This city is the end point of the Camino de Santiago (walk of St. James.) [...]
