About
Southern gentleman living in Los Angeles. When I am not planning travel, I am writing about it. I can put my Spanish literature degree to use for Spanish-speaking clients.
Home airports
LAX – because I like chaos.
My travel style
I call myself a "high-low" traveler. I love luxury, but I know that my most priceless experiences didn't cost me one penny.
Favorite hotels
Recently returned from:
Snorkeling at the Blue Lagoon in Vanuatu.
Cooking class at the Santa Fe School of Cooking.
Hanging out on a sandbar off the coast of Fiji.
Driving the PCH from Monterey to Big Sur.
Dreaming of:
Ethiopia.
San Miguel De Allende, México.
Eating my way through Vietnam.
Accra, Ghana.
One thing I can't travel without...
Patience.
Two truths, one lie:
My wife and I almost died on a boat excursion in Cartagena, Colombia.
I was mistaken for a Nigerian Nollywood Star in the airport.
I partied in Rio de Janeiro's Cidade De Deus.
