Jobs for World Travelers: A Life at Sea

This post was written on my October 2009 cruise of the Mexican Riviera.
Lying on my stomach, covered in towels, face pushed through a terry cloth doughnut, I asked the woman rubbing hot stones on my calves what it’s like to work on a cruise ship. After swapping stories from the high seas and travels on [...]

Disgraceful Tourism

We travel because it’s a rare kind of high that can also enlighten, rejuvenate, and ensure the occurrence of adventure. Regardless of the road’s discomforts or challenges, travel seems to always evoke an inexplicable positivity – whether that’s from the possibility of new friendships or just the newness of a myriad of elements.
The scope of [...]

Quick Trips from Mexico City

My video development has been solely focused on ProjectExplorer material. Here are some quick trips I’ve been editing or filming thus far.

Jazmine talks about her molcajete, which is a traditional soup-like meal in a volcanic dish.

We had a little fun in a market at Xochimilco. Jazmine really likes puppets.

While dining at the world’s 72nd best [...]

Update from Mexico City

Even though last week’s Consume & Update received a lovely compliment, the production and content schedule here in Mexico is too daunting to also include a thorough perusal of the internet’s best in travel and blogging.
Instead, I’ll make this Sunday Update all about the job with ProjectExplorer, on location in Mexico City.
Update on Nomadderwhere
The job [...]

The Travel Pose

I have four types of travel poses: the ones I take at arm’s length, the ones with sunglasses staring into the distance, the ones with my head resting on a surface, and Mighty Mouse.
Allow me to explain…

Video of the Week: World Traveler Intern Highlights

One of my least favorite questions to answer is “What was your favorite part?” Slimming down a trip into the best moments leaves out all the thrills in between and the trip’s entirety as a journey, which amplifies the highlights even more. The experience of the World Traveler Internship had an obvious highlight for me: [...]

Photos of the Week: The Fijian Highlands

I know, for most people, Fiji calls to mind some good old fashioned hedonism and self-indulgence. Sounds like a great time. Some day I’ll know that side of the island experience, but I’m darn sure I loved seeing the other side, the village life of the Highlands…where Fiji distinguishes itself from the average island’0′resorts.

The Makings of a Travel Video

It’s quite possible that in the next couple of months, I’ll be approached by online strangers wanting to know the inside scoop on the World Traveler Internship. I know this will happen because I did the exact same thing for the last two years.
And though I’ve tried to describe the application process to those interested [...]

Video of the Week: Ireland on a Budget

Stay in hostels with free internet. Buy food to cook in the kitchen. Save your money for the pints of Guinness and ice cream you know you want. Occasionally have a pub meal, but remember all the things you can buy with a 20 Euro restaurant bill. And always be on the look-out for fun, [...]

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.

Collaborating with the World Traveler Internship

On April 11th, I extended the opportunity for those interested to have a hand in the Internship, to collaborate, for the nature of the program is not to give someone a free trip around the world but to relate to the viewing community and charge their spirits to explore. Therefore, it was essential that I [...]

What is Nomadderwhere?

A nomad moves and continues to flex their idea of home and comfort. A nomad doesn’t settle on one way of thinking or one surrounding. It’s a lifestyle of adaptation and life-long learning.

Video of the Week: Edinburgh Fringe Festival

The Fringe festival in Edinburgh has an atmosphere that would tantalize any arty, expressy person in this world. Constant performances in hundreds of venues. Street performers clogging the main thoroughfares. It’s a grand ambiance and worth visiting over and over again. If only I had more time to do this festival justice.

Finding Purpose in Culture Shock

I never really know how my travel experiences have affected me until I return to my starting point: home. Flying through various destinations and worrying about logistics sometimes takes away the mind’s energy to process what it’s witnessed until it’s back on familiar soil. And since each trip is different, every time I return home, [...]

Hey, Ireland, Nice Craic! Day 75

“Nice craic”
Why, thank you!
This phrase took me some time to understand. This wasn’t a severely misspelled compliment towards my derriere but a charming little catch phrase about good times in Ireland. Having a blast at a pub, cheers-ing to good friends, good Guinness, and swaying to the pipe of a Irish folk musician? That’s some [...]
