    It’s not every day you get to ride a camel, but one day, it will be. And on that day, I suggest you skip it, because camel riding is not as awesome as you think it is. Nevertheless, Day 13 of Awesome involves camels. But instead of lying to you and saying my camel ride [...]

    As you can tell by these photos, I am extreme: I have been skydiving, I can shotgun a beer, I have been sandboarding, and one time I actually [unknowingly] went skinning dipping in close proximity to a shark.

    Morocco day one, and the family and I were thrown into the heart and soul of Marrakech’s famous market. It hasn’t been long since abombing in the famous Marrakech square, but the maze of vendors, crafters, and endless alleyways packed us in like sardines as we tried to navigate the area. There is a bright [...]

    Fate, destiny… whatever you call it, I called it this: a bunch of Mumbo Jumbo. Though there was an occasional sage burning at my family holidays, have never taken the advice of a Zoltar machine or a fortune cookie. Once all my friends dressed like fortune tellers and went to the bars for my birthday, [...]
