View Post	Quito and La Mitad del Mundo Welcome to the middle of the world. Literally. La Mitad del Mundo is one of the most interesting attractions in Quito, about one hour away from the capital’s city center. A must for any tourist, it is where the Equator line goes through with a little twist: officially, there is a huge monument marking the [...]
View Post	Fun Times in the Philippines: Travel Video This travel video of the Philippines includes highlights of our three week trip across several islands. We landed in Manila after a scary flight (our plane was struck by lightning) and explored the city, then visited the islands of Cebu, Bohol, western Mindanao and finished surfing Cloud 9 in Siargao. The Philippines is one country [...]
View Post	Beach Tennis: the Asia-Pacific Tour Do you love tennis or beach tennis? Do you love to travel? Traveling is a lot of fun by itself, with new destinations and new people you meet being an eye opening experience that keeps you busy and in awe most of the time. Yet sometimes the trip itself can be made into an even [...]
View Post	Snorkeling in Hanauma Bay, Hawaii (Video) Hanauma Bay is, without a doubt, Oahu’s most popular snorkeling spot. The beach is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the island and is just a 25 minutes bus ride from Waikiki. In this video you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy its spectacular surroundings and learn some tips before getting there, and make sure [...]
View Post	Surfing in Kenting, Taiwan It is true that Taiwan has surf all around the island, but if there is a place worth emphasizing that is Kenting National Park, in Taiwan’s southernmost tip. Blessed with tropical temperatures and warm water year around there are waves 365 days/year in at least one of the several beaches the park has. It is [...]
View Post	Swimming With Dolphins in Puerto Vallarta (Video) Puerto Vallarta in Mexico is perhaps better known for whale watching than for swimming with wild dolphins, yet unlike whale watching, this is an experience that can be enjoyed year around. I already shared with you before my thoughts on this tour and how much we enjoyed it, but now you are going to see [...]
View Post	Swimming With Sharks in Oahu, Hawaii (Video) Sharks are predators that most people try to avoid in a lifetime and by any means, but as I shared some time ago in a previous article about our shark swim tour it’s an experience we were looking forward to and were able to enjoy with Hawaii Shark Encounters, one of the leading companies in [...]
View Post	Video: Traveling in Colombia I recently had a chance to travel accross Colombia and have to say it offers everything I expected and more. The food is delicious, people are extremely welcoming and there’s plenty to see all around the country. I began my trip in the South comming from Ecuador and finished it in Cartagena de Indias, one [...]
View Post	Eating Duck Fetus Vietnamese Style While in Melbourne I had the chance to visit my good friend Cong and enjoy good times with his family and friends. One of the suprises he had for us was hot vit lon, a vietnamese dish which consists of duck fetus eaten straight from the egg. This same dish is eaten in the Philippines, [...]
View Post	Video: Surfing in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico One of the advantages of currently being based in Puerto Vallarta (Mexico) is that I can often enjoy my favorite sport: surfing. The area might not be one of the top surfing destinations in the world, but there are plenty of waves during the year to let me surf more days than not, and enjoy [...]
View Post	Angel Flores Guesthouse Review During our recent visit in Ajijic we stayed at Angel Flores Guest House. Well appointed, rather new and with all sorts of commodities it is a place I highly recommend as it is also well priced. Watch this video and make a reservation if you plan on visiting this lovely little town in Lake Chapala!
