There are a lot of eSIM companies in the world. They all work a similar way: you download their app, pick your package, install the eSIM into your smartphone, and off you go. There’s many I like. But one I like more than the rest is Holafly and I’ve been using their eSIMs for years. […]
Take a Workshop at Junkgirls 870 Monterey St, San Luis Obispo, CA 93401, map I made a metal-stamped bookmark with my playa name, a tag for Leo, and a one-of-a-kind ring out of a recycled spoon. The atmosphere here was so warm and welcoming; I felt like I was getting a taste of art therapy. […]
32 The latest place in Indonesia that’s been compared to Jurassic Park is Nuca Molas, a little island off the coast of Flores with wild and exotic scenery. It’s well worth a visit if you’re road tripping through Flores, going to Komodo, or planning to visit the nearby village of Wae Rebo. The scenery on […]
I love road trips. You get in car and can just head off anywhere you want. There’s a freedom to a road trip that you can’t get with trains (and, don’t get me wrong, I love train travel too). Small towns, beautiful parks, historic buildings….whatever you see, you can stop for and can stay as […]

This trail is located near the popular Mount Batur volcano, but it’s much less crowded and most foreign tourists don’t even know about it. I did the hike recently and […]
I used to think “home” was a dirty word. Out there — on the road — was where life happened, full of exciting adventures, fascinating people, and endless possibilities. No dreary commutes, 30-minute lunch breaks, mind-numbing meetings, or endless lists of to-dos squeezed into a rushed weekend. Why would anyone want to be home, the […]

If you have 10 days in the country, the best way to spend it is by seeing the old cities and traditional markets, plus the Atlas mountains and desert scenery. This itinerary has each of those things.
