Daily Wanderlust: Sarajevo by night

I spent about a week in Sarajevo, the City of Roses. During my time in the city, I fell in love with it. I chased Angelina Jolie for a story, I took numerous walking tours and learned about the dark past and vibrant present of the city, and I explored the juxtaposition of the battleContinue reading “Daily Wanderlust: Sarajevo by night”

Daily Wanderlust: Benidorm, Spain

Benidorm, Spain is one of those places that seems to have simply sprung up between the crop-covered hills and coast of the Mediterranean. With high-rise hotels jutting up from the flat shoreline, this town is about as non-Spanish as you can get while still being in Spain. Sure, it still has the beautiful squares andContinue reading “Daily Wanderlust: Benidorm, Spain”

Daily Wanderlust: Love in the desert

I’ve been talking a lot lately about the beauty of America’s desert southwest. Maybe it’s because I am trying to soak up as much as I can before I embark on the next journey. Regardless, I’ve been going through photos of late and find myself staring at the untouched beauty in Utah, the reds andContinue reading “Daily Wanderlust: Love in the desert”

Escape of the Week: Hoover Dam

Whether staying in Arizona vacation rentals, Boulder City or Las Vegas, the Hoover Dam is one of those places that should be visited on a trip to the American Southwest. On the border of Nevada and Arizona (and, depending on the time of year, also on the Pacific/Mountain Time Zone) is the historic Hoover Dam, alsoContinue reading “Escape of the Week: Hoover Dam”

Daily Wanderlust: the Fez tannery

During my time in Morocco, I hired a guide. Even though I swore I wouldn’t. I just got so worn down, tired of pretending to not hear the calls, tired of being on guard. When in Fez, and I met Sayid, I succumbed and let him take me around the old medina of Fez, whichContinue reading “Daily Wanderlust: the Fez tannery”

Sexpats, expats and bathroom blowjobs

//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js // <![CDATA[ (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); // ]]> My foot taps to the beat of the band as I wait in the tiny outdoor area behind Interbar in Chiang Mai. It seems like I’ve been standing in front of this dingy little mirror and dirty sink for more than five minutes. I’m notContinue reading “Sexpats, expats and bathroom blowjobs”

Daily Wanderlust: Tarifa, Spain

Tarifa, Spain. The sign at the edge of the beach says: “the southest town in Europe.” The way the wind whips my hair and pushes the crashing surf, it definitely seems like a dramatic point on the continent. This little beach town is the place where the Atlantic Ocean crashes into the Mediterranean, and whereContinue reading “Daily Wanderlust: Tarifa, Spain”

Daily Wanderlust: La Alhambra

Perched at the top of the gorgeous Granada, Spain(home to my special Spanish affair) is one of the must-see’s in the city, if not the country — La Alhambra. The well-preserved 9th century Arabic palace, whose name means “red mountain,” is one of those magnificent spots in the city, which combines history with romance. Here,Continue reading “Daily Wanderlust: La Alhambra”

Daily Wanderlust: Seville, Spain

It’s no secret my heart belongs to Spain. After all, it is the one country I spent the most time in during my long-term travels, bopping in and out more more than a handful of times before I risked deportation. In fact, Spain is the one place I can imagine myself staying long-term … itContinue reading “Daily Wanderlust: Seville, Spain”
