7 Van Essentials: What to Know Before Your First Van Trip

December 29, 2025 by DaveLeave a Comment

Road trips are the ultimate freedom in lifestyle; when I go on a road trip, I have a rough idea of my geographical coverage, but I leave the trip mostly unscripted and unplanned letting the journey unfold as circumstances dictate. Some of my favorite road trips are to California's Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains, winding my way south into the desert, especially Death Valley and the Mojave. The silence, the stillness and the remoteness of … [Read more...]

If you are a frequent traveler and a sports fan, there is arguably no better place to be in the latter half of the 2020s than the United States. As luck – or political maneuvering – would have it, the US will host both the 2026 FIFA World Cup and 2028 Summer Olympics, making it the place to be for global sports in the coming years. Of course, there are also the annual ‘national’ events, such as the Super Bowl. Tickets for these blue-chip … [Read more...]

Taipei in a Flash: A Whirlwind Adventure Worth Remembering

December 1, 2025 by Dave4 Comments

A quick journey to Taipei was not meant to be. Rather than get up with the chickens at 430am in the Thai village I am staying in to catch a van to Suvarnabhumi Airport to catch an 11am flight, I opted to take a a van into Bangkok a day early at a reasonable 3pm departure. I didn't catch much sleep that night due to three women next door partying like it was December 31, 1999. The day of my flight, I left my hotel at 8am for the airport. The … [Read more...]

The Snowbird’s Complete Guide to Seasonal Vehicle Transport

November 25, 2025 by DaveLeave a Comment

It is that time of year, when those in the northern Hemisphere (myself included) start thinking about migrating to warmer climes for the winter. For me it's from California to Thailand. This involves a couple of long flights and some invariable jet lag. But for many others in the U.S. or Canada in terms of this seasonal migration, there are many more logistics involved. These snowbirds go beyond packing winter coats and sunscreen. One of the … [Read more...]
