Videos
Hi all! I’ve been working on videos throughout my trip, and here they are. It’s quite a bit so don’t feel bad if you can’t watch them all in one sitting. They’ll be here for you to see forever. I hope (more…)
A bad day, but still not really
Hi all. It’s been a while since I posted here, but don’t forget to go to the home page where I post a lot more. This is a post I’ve been working on for a few weeks….
A few months ago, I wrote a post about a bad day. I had mentioned to a friend that I had some bad days on the trip, but then he helped me put it in perspective that they weren’t (more…)
Central America in a Nutshell
One of my many goals for this trip is to set foot on all seven continents. Last Wednesday I completed the first leg of my trip and I left North America and moved on to South America. I can still remember when I landed in Mexico City in mid-August and November seemed years away. It feels like yesterday when I was roaming up and down the Mexico City airport trying to find the metro. The trip got better from there and I (more…)
The Incredible Journey Paused (but not really)
When I set out on The Incredible Journey, my goal was to travel for a year and to see all seven continents. That’s what constituted the Journey for me at the time. My ideas about this have changed a bit and I’ve realized that the journey isn’t just a physical one consisting of moving and traveling all the time. It’s also an emotional and spiritual journey.

He was surprised to hear that one could have a bad day while on vacation so we got to discussing it and the thought stuck with me for a while afterwards. I realized that (more…)
One Month In
It was exactly a month ago today that I landed in Mexico City to start my adventure around the world. It’s always to intimidating to start on something so large, and this trip was no exception. I remember my first night and I was talking to two guys from Australia who had (more…)
Hostel Living
Many people ask me about hostels and how they work vs a hotel. For me, a hostel is the only way to go. The main difference between a hostel and a hotel is that you’re sharing a room with others, sometimes people of the opposite gender. It basically a dorm room (more…)
Mexico City
So I’m three weeks into my trip now and I’m settling into my new routine (or more accurately my lack of routine). My last week at home was complete and utter chaos. I had planned on slowly packing up the house all summer so that I didn’t have to do it all at the last minute. Well, the summer snuck away from me. I did summer school for a month while also (more…)
Getting Ready for the Incredible Journey
As I get closer to my departure date, many people are asking about the trip so I thought I start the travel blog early. Here’s a few of the most popular questions that I’m getting. If you have any here that aren’t mentioned let me know. I’m happy to edit this blog.
Do you know where you’re staying each night?
Absolutely not. I have a rough itinerary of which area I’ll be in, but I don’t have (more…)
