A Guide to Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro

November 1, 2023 by Dave2 Comments

One of a number of my trips to Africa was built around a singular goal - that of reaching the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, one of the seven summits (the tallest mountains on each continent). Hint, I did reach the summit but not without overcoming hardship on the way. While not the tallest mountain on the planet and with routes that aren't particularly technical, its summit still tops out at 5,895 meters (19,341 feet). It is the altitude that can be … [Read more...]

November 1, 2023 by DaveLeave a Comment

A number of pullouts are … [Read more...]

October 10, 2023 by DaveLeave a Comment

By now, most of the world knows that the beloved Japan Rail Pass went up in price by 69% starting October 1st.

At the new price point of 50,000 yen for the standard offering, however, those purchasing the Japan Rail Pass will need to make a much more concerted effort to use it if they're going to … [Read more...]
