My First Flight on Spirit Airlines…and I Lived to Tell About It!

#hatersgonhate I have to admit, I was concerned about flying Spirit Airlines for the first time. Only seconds after I updated my facebook status with the news I had booked a flight on the airlines, my timeline erupted with scores of friends warning me not to fly Spirit, many even “scolding” me for the choice….

Applying for my Venezuelan Tourist Visa at the San Francisco Consulate

Jeeze, where do I start? I guess I’ll begin by saying my 2016 trip to Caracas is one of the trips I’ve been most excited about in a long time, and for all the wrong reasons. Apparently, Venezuela is pretty dangerous. How dangerous, you ask? Well, let me put it to you this way: Often…

Belize

You Won’t Belize It Well…I have failed you. It’s hard for even me to believe that there was a time in my life when travel didn’t excite me. But there was. There was actually a period of my life, when I would travel–mostly cruises, with my family–that I didn’t have that travel “bug;” that unquenchable…

Cayman Islands

Grand Cayman was a stop on my very first cruise, with my mom…must have been 2004ish? I only had a few hours there. I don’t remember much, except hopping off the ship for an excursion to a turtle farm and to Hell. Yes, I went to Hell. Seriously! Hell is actually what I remember the…

Escape to Nether-Nether Land!

The Start of Something Special My summer trip to Europe in 2015 was actually one of the events that first sparked my love for extreme travel. I checked off seven countries in less than two weeks. It was my first time seeing so many nations in a short amount of time and I absolutely loved it….

Austria

Ahhh, Austria. What can I say that won’t open me up to ridicule and even outrage? Look, I didn’t love Austria. But I admit upfront, it’s all my fault; so I’m in no way giving this beauty of a country a bad wrap. Number one: In true “Ramblin’ Randy” fashion, I had very limited time…

Luxembourg Loser

The Start of Something Special Europe in the summer of 2015. Seven countries in less than two weeks. It wasn’t a trip; it was a sprint, a whirlwind crash course in the art of extreme travel. For the first time, I found myself hopping from one nation to the next at breakneck speed, soaking in…
