The Road to Brazil

State your goals and you will be held accountable for them. Work hard enough and the universe will help you accomplish them. I write this post with a sense of nervousness and excitement. The next chapter for T2T is on the horizon, yet the path is still unknown. I will move to Brazil, learn the […]

FOUR YEARS FROM NOW

Anniversaries are usually a great time for reflecting on where we’ve been and what we’ve accomplished. An appreciation of the past allows us to savor life’s great moments as we move forward. On October 1, 2009, I moved to Argentina with no clue what I was getting myself into. Since that lonely first week in […]
A Mind Blowing Travel Moment

The Journey Begins It was just after 11 p.m. when our inebriated guide maneuvered his beat-up Jeep Wrangler through the pitch-black dirt roads of Vieques Island. From the back seat, I was tiptoeing that fine line between having faith and being responsible. Just a few hours prior, I was researching bio bay tours from a […]
San Juan Nightlife Guide

The capital city of Puerto Rico is the gateway to all things adventurous on the island. From zip-lining through rainforests to surfing along endless coastlines, your daily activities are covered with just a rental car and a road map. The real question I have, however, is: “How are you going to spend your evenings while […]

Happy Hours at the Harbor Beach Marriott

There are so many things to do in Fort Lauderdale and at the Harbor Beach Marriott Resort & Spa, that I just couldn’t decide. On my first day at the resort I set out to experience everything from watersports and water taxi rides to beach bootcamp workouts and bicycle rentals. It was fun and exhausting […]
Top Things To Do in Key Largo

I write this post from a hammock overlooking the Florida Bay. There’s a boat coming into the Harbor that looks like it’s seen better days. I wonder what life would be like if I lived on a boat? I could get a cool flag and a sexy deckhand and a diving board. I’m sorry if […]
A Day of Luxury at the Turnberry Isle Miami

Have you ever been somewhere so nice that you get intimated just walking in the door? Between the extravagant art collection, top notch golf course and plush digs, that is how I felt coming into the Turnberry Isle Miami. I honestly didn’t think they would let me by the Koi pond at the front entrance […]
Capturing Curacao

Six vloggers (video bloggers) set out on a mission. A mission commissioned by Diamond PR, the Santa Barbara Beach and Golf Resort and the Tourism Board of Curacao. The goal was to spend two days capturing the sites and sounds of our host property and the beautiful island of Curacao. On the third day we were given […]
