Vanessa Pirotta, Whale Researcher

December 16, 2018 by Dave2 Comments

I first stumbled across Vanessa Pirotta's fascinating work involving whales through Twitter. She is an Australian based wild life conservationist working with cetaceans (a word that refers to whales, dolphins and porpoises). Her investigative work has led her to locations around the world collecting various data. She is most known for her research in collecting whale snot through the use of a customized collection system carried by drones. She is … [Read more...]

5 Top World Adventures for Older Travelers

December 11, 2018 by David Astley3 Comments

seal-hunter-speedboat-greenland

As we travelers and adventurers get older, our bodies no longer let us do everything that we once did. Our stamina declines, our knees get weaker, and we start to suffer ailments that we knew nothing about in our younger years. But our quest for adventure doesn’t go away. So many of us older travelers get frustrated that we can’t do everything that we would like to do. Trekking to Everest base camp or expeditions to Patagonia start to become … [Read more...]

Belize, Mother Natures Best Kept Secret!

November 29, 2018 by Manali ManeLeave a Comment

Exploring inland Belize was on my list simply because it wasn't on everyone else's; while researching the interior of the country, I felt this region somewhat underrated considering its diversity of activities and natural attractions. Turns out I was right; inland Belize forms the crux of what makes the country so unique. I found it more appealing than the acclaimed Cayes and the glorious big Blue Hole. I journeyed through its dense green … [Read more...]

Gray Fossil Site: An Accidental Discovery

November 8, 2018 by Steve TaylorLeave a Comment

On the morning of January 20, 2018, I found myself roaming the back roads of Washington County, Tennessee with my camera and an itchy shutter finger. I had been in Kingsport for a week on business and was desperate to find something to write about in the area. It was by pure coincidence that I happened upon Gray Fossil Site and General Shale Natural History Museum. Dig Site In May of 2000, a Tennessee DOT crew was grading an unsafe hill … [Read more...]

Road Trip Part 3: San Diego and Encinitas

October 26, 2018 by Steve Taylor3 Comments

International travelers are more than happy to tell you all about the people, places, and cultures of the world. There is nothing that can compare to the experience of exploring ancient cities in far away countries. To be emersed in the customs of a foreign land is an escape from one's self and education in life. In the U.S. we are so fascinated by the cultures of other countries that we often take for granted the diversity within our borders. … [Read more...]

Road Trip Part 2: Tucson to Alpine

October 23, 2018 by Steve TaylorLeave a Comment

When I decided to take my first cross-country road trip, in April of 2012, the destination was originally set as Tucson, AZ. A close friend had moved there a few years prior, and he really seemed to love it. Having spent most of my life in Northern Indiana, I was fed up with cold weather and dreamed of visiting a climate that was completely different. My trip was as much about scouting for a possible move as it was a new adventure. When I arrived … [Read more...]

Franconia Notch – an easy day trip from Boston

October 12, 2018 by Abdul Rastagar1 Comment

One of my favorite things to do when I used to live in Boston was to spend the weekend in one of the adjoining states. I'd load my car with my dog, grab a backpack and head out to either the Green Mountains in New Hampshire or the White Mountains in Vermont. Because the states in the US northeast are so small, getting there was all too easy. So when I visited Boston recently for a conference, I decided to extend my stay through the weekend and … [Read more...]
