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.

One thing I can't travel without...

Patience.

Two truths, one lie:

  1. My wife and I almost died on a boat excursion in Cartagena, Colombia. 

  2. I was mistaken for a Nigerian Nollywood Star in the airport. 

  3. I partied in Rio de Janeiro's Cidade De Deus.
