Vanessa Pirotta, Whale Researcher

James Asquith, Youngest to Visit all 196

September 17, 2018 by Dave2 Comments

An accomplishment certainly worth highlighting - world traveler, James Asquith remarkably completed visiting all 196 UN recognized countries by the time he was just 24. An even more remarkable was he started this epic and ultimate road trip when he was just 18. Recently we had a chance to ask him a few questions about his time on the road (he no longer has a permanent home) and he recently built and launched an app that has introduced an … [Read more...]

Skuli Mogensen, Founder & CEO WOW air

We first became aware of WOW air several years ago because of their extremely low fares between Iceland and mainland Europe and then again when they started offering $99 fares from select US cities to Iceland. Recently we had the opportunity to interview their founder and CEO Skuli Mogensen. He is an accomplished and creative individual - here are several questions we asked him about WOW air and Iceland.

Her adventures are nothing short of amazing, reaching the summit of Mt. Everest at age 25, participating in the first ever all-female team in a 360 mile race to the Magnetic North Pole (successfully reaching the pole), and significant cycling, kayaking and other outdoor adventure feats.
