A Colorado summer is loaded with things to do like camping, rafting, ziplining, thrilling attractions, off-roading, hiking, biking and on and on. But what really makes a Colorado … [Read more...]

Two Lost Americans On A Borneo Rainforest Safari

May 24, 2018 by Two Lost Americans4 Comments

Just a smidgen before sunrise in the Borneo rainforest when a gray mist still veiled the chocolate-colored Kinabatangan River, the macaques and proboscis monkeys started dropping down from the trees in search of breakfast. From our motorboat on the water, we kept an eye out for movement among the leaves. The monkeys often traveled in packs, so many times when we'd see one swinging down to the river's edge, the rest of the group — either bachelors … [Read more...]

As tourist from all over the world pass us going uphill, some speak to us, some don’t, or can’t.

May 12, 2018 by Allison Tibaldi2 Comments

Even in a region as beautiful as the Caribbean, Antigua stands out for its variety of beaches. Locals say there are 365 beaches, so you may swim and sunbathe at a different beach everyday for an entire year without repetition. The quality of its water is breathtaking—crystal … [Read more...]
