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...]

May 16, 2018 by Craig Hebert4 Comments

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

At the Edge of Africa : Cape Agulhas.

April 5, 2018 by Pete MartinLeave a Comment

I have hired a car for the day. Early on a Sunday morning it’s quiet and once out of Cape Town the roads are emptier still. I take the main road, the R316, in a south-east direction. The countryside is deserted apart from the odd group of cattle or sheep out on the rolling yellow fields. The terrain becomes mountainous as I pass Napier and strangely in Bredasdorp I am welcomed to Agulhas, even though it’s another thirty-five kilometres … [Read more...]

Camino de Santiago

March 3, 2018 by Marlena Fiol1 Comment

The air in the waiting room at the Bilbao International Airport pressed against us, dank and heavy.

In the far corner, a group of young men, all wearing identical yellow and black T-shirts displaying an image of a large soccer … [Read more...]
