Consume & Update: 101, Maroon, and Onslaught
Today’s post came out a bit late, but that is due to the high quality of work I found this week. I also have lots to share… How’s The List Coming? Do you have a bucket or life list running? Are most of your goals doable, or are they unattainable? Don’t you wish you had [...]

Journeys of a Lifetime in December
Welcome back to my new monthly series on Nomadderwhere, one which highlights the incredible trips one could take in that current month – thanks to a vibrant book called Journeys of a Lifetime by National Geographic. Each month I pick a couple adventures from each section in the book in order to provide you inspiration [...]
A Creepy Recurrence
I pretty much praise anyone who finds a reason or the time to explore my site, and when people search the web and end up on Nomadderwhere, I’m just as thrilled. Some of my most popular posts are some I wouldn’t have pegged to be for the masses, for example: My JanSport Backpack Review Things [...]
Photos of the Week: Angkor Temples in Siem Reap, Cambodia
The moss and the orange. It’s glorious. The Angkor temples are ancient and were erected by elephants hundreds of years ago. And Angkor Wat has an awe factor that screams “virtuosity”. Also enjoy some blogs from my time in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Subscribe to Nomadderwhere’s posts via e-mail or RSS feed
Love for the IMA in Cambodia
I found this photo of the Cambodia’s Hope kids on Facebook and saw one of the boys was wearing my t-shirt. Thrilling. Cambodian children just love Indianapolis’ art scene! Go IMA! Subscribe to Nomadderwhere’s posts.
Hey, That’s My Leg You Ran Over: Day 192
On this final night in Cambodia, I adorned my trekking shoes for the first time in weeks and chaperoned an excursion to Phnom Penh’s Water Festival near the river. I missed the main events of boating and races during the day, but the locals spoke of crowds that would stop traffic, which I was eager [...]
The Cheap Battle Against Scurvy: Day 190
After ten days of teaching in classrooms, drawing cartoons, tutoring English, pushing swings, riding bikes too small for me, picking up from school, playing in the rain and watching TV while intertwined in a human pile, I finally felt comfortable taking my camera out of my room and clicking photographs of the kids I lived [...]
My Brush with Controversial Cambodia: Day 189
There’s such a thing as a hostess bar in Cambodia. It’s an establishment that offers libations, snacks, and the most salient feature of spry, young Cambodian women, available for modest companionship and eye candy. With such a gag-evoking reality of child prostitution and sex tourism in this country already scarred with unfathomable [recent] history, I [...]
My Friend, Evan Witty
There are a couple reasons why I’ve chosen to live my life the way that I do. The unpredictable coming of death is a major determining factor that leaves me feeling helpless to the forces of nature. When traveling to distant lands and seeking adventure make us more vulnerable to risk and danger, but statistics [...]
The Transition to Useful: Day 187
As often as one would see a road sign or a mailbox on the highway in America, in Cambodia, one sees the reoccurrence of signage displaying political loyalty: Cambodian People’s Party, Funcinpec, and oodles others adorning the mouths of people’s driveways. Besides these brilliant blue beacons, all the world is green. Families construct roadside eateries [...]
Angkor Thoughts Anchor Awe: Day 180
My hair fluttered in the wind on the back of the hired tuk-tuk. Driving twelve kilometers into the Angkor jungles, the amazing Cambodian air was cool and luscious, yet upon stopping it instantly created a “stick” factor that made me look freshly emerged from a pool. I even wore my Bayern Munchen soccer jersey in [...]
Luxu-Reverse Culture Shock: Also Day 179
Individual TVs with touch screen features, jam-packed with the latest Hollywood hits. A Thai meal paired with real silverware, a cloth napkin matching the pattern of the place mat, and true customer satisfaction. I just described the experience of flying with an Indian airline. Surprised? My eyes were slathered with awe once I left the [...]
