This 25 acre palm studded oasis founded by two Canadians sits on the edge of the Sierra de la Laguna foothills, a short drive from the center of San Jose del Cabo. Depending on the route one may pass through over narrow dirt roads - past primitive looking pens holding cows - a complete contrast in comparison to the well-kept and orderly grounds of the resort.

China Ranch Date Farm & Bakery – April 2021

April 1, 2021 by DaveLeave a Comment

The property has a fascinating history - settled by a Chinese man who came here pre-1900 after working the Borax mines in Death Valley.

A Visit to Muckross House and Killarney National Park, Ireland

January 29, 2021 by DaveLeave a Comment

My first trip to Ireland was somewhat of a blur. I stayed in Dublin recalling that most of my time was spent hanging out in pubs and drinking - because that is what one does when visiting this city! However, my most recent trip to Ireland was a bit was not about 'drinking' tourism, rather more about heritage and exploration away from the bigger cities. My travel buddy and I landed in Cork (the southern part of Ireland); we were immediately … [Read more...]

Why do I Travel Solo?

December 1, 2020 by Teh Chin Liang2 Comments

When I tell people I am going on a long solo trip, often eyebrows are raised followed by a barrage of questions such as: 'are you out of your mind?' - 'what are you going to do being alone in a foreign country?' - 'won’t you feel lonely?' - 'are you sure it is going to be safe for you?' and 'isn’t it weird doing things alone all the time?” The questions persist and at times I feel like in a military video game on the defensive - holding a bullet … [Read more...]
