My Solo Adventure in the Mount Baker Wilderness

November 20, 2017 by Marinel de JesusLeave a Comment

Many people associate Washington State with Mount Rainier or Olympic National Park.  North of Seattle, however, is filled with wonderful mountain trails to entice any type of hiker or mountain enthusiast.  As a former resident of the state, I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't get a chance to explore much of the trekking destinations in Washington.   Luckily, on a trip to California for a travel conference that I attended as part of my social … [Read more...]

Italy Is Always A Good Idea

August 1, 2017 by Julie StevensLeave a Comment

I know this title normally refers to Paris, but for me, Italy has been on my mind and in my dreams since I first saw the movie "Only You" with Robert Downey Jr. & Marisa Tomei. The music, the cobblestone streets, the pasta, the lilt that accompanies each Italian word, and the romance. Bellisima! (Try to picture my thumb and fingers together waving in the air while I say this). There is so much to say about our trip to Italy, so you can expect … [Read more...]

Alaska: Wilderness Unbound

June 30, 2017 by Matthew Writer2 Comments

Alaska is absurd. Bears, moose, mammoth mountains, soaring pines, jagged peaks, water streaming past boulders, surging down valleys, crashing against sand. We started in South Dakota, attending a wedding in the Black Hills the weekend prior to departure. This was July of 2014. On Sunday, we drove to Denver, hopping an Alaska Airlines flight to Seattle, using two companion certificates. Our departure from Seattle to Anchorage was delayed. We … [Read more...]

The Feel is in the Destination, Baros Maldives

February 6, 2017 by Dave4 Comments

Opening in 1973, the Baros Maldives was only the third island destination resort in the Maldives. It's gorgeous beauty and proximity to Male were among the primary reasons for it's opening. Even though such history is fairly recent - things were significantly different back then. There were no banks on Male, fishing was still the primary income source for the country, the population was less then a 1/3 of what it is today and on Baros the … [Read more...]
