Gracias, Barcelona Policia
I had never stayed in a hostel before, and that was why I committed a cardinal sin when it came to booking a hostel room. Instead of booking a bed for one night and given myself an opportunity to see what the hostel was actually once I got there, I reserved - and paid for - a bed for multiple nights going by what I saw of the hostel on its website. (Please. Don't get out that wet noodle to give me a whipping just yet. There are more reasons … [Read more...]

Of Britain and Buses
Sometimes a seemingly simple task, upon first encounter, can turn out perplexing to the unbeknownst traveler like me. It started with the entryway into a bus. It wasn't that I didn't realize the door would be on the 'other side' of the mammoth vehicle; it was more of an initial disoriented hesitation of making my way to the door on the left side of the bus rather than on the right side. Stepping onto the bus's ledge, the professor leading our … [Read more...]
Pollo Campero
We cannot do everything and there is a sense of liberation in realizing that. This enables us to do something, and to do it well. It may be incomplete, but it is a beginning, a step along the way, an opportunity for God's grace to enter and do the rest. ~ Oscar Romero Pollo Campero Jackie, Trout, Molly, and I were on our way back from spending the week in Honduras and were physically and emotionally exhausted from our trip.

Alive & Well: Experience The American Automobile Industry Through Factory Tours

Hong Kong was a dependent territory of the United Kingdom from the early 1840's until 1997. You may still find … [Read more...]
Welcome to Hong Kong
"Welcome to Hong Kong. If you are connecting to another flight, we wish you safe travels. On behalf of my crew, we thank you for flying Cathay Pacific." The soothing -- we are here to serve your needs -- voice of the head flight attendant jolted me back to reality -- I had been staring blankly at the multi-colored seat in front of me. It wasn't her voice that caused the jolt; the official announcement that I had made it to Hong Kong was what … [Read more...]
