Today is Thursday – Throwback Thursday (insert eye roll if you will) – so I thought I’d share a little gem about how I got into this life of travel and adventure sports. It was the day I decided to run away from home
Running your own business is a bumpy road. It’s one of those things that people frequently want to do, but don’t quite know where to begin. They feel a little lost, and so they never quite take the leap. Let
If you’ve never met me, then walking into my kitchen and seeing an unknown man in polka-dot sundress making breakfast for four might seem strange. If you do know me, then you know I host Couchsurfers, and you probably wouldn’t
If I could describe a picture perfect example of a digital nomad, Anca would be that person. Running a successful business, traveling the world, taking lots of beach pictures – she meets all of the criteria. She just gets it and, fortunately, she
You may have visited my website in the last month, just to find yourself at a big ERROR message. Yup, I did possibly one of the most panic-inducing things a website owner could do: accidentally delete my website. There I was,
I recently found myself with a day to spare and an urge to explore the desert. So, I loaded up the car with my weekend gear and favorite friends, and we headed to Joshua Tree National Park to see what
Meet Tom. He’s a pretty badass entrepreneur with a major adventure traveling addiction and a mission to make a difference in the world. I recently had the chance to touch base with him right as he was beginning his Southern

An appropriate place for fairy tales and mystical stories, Scotland has been the backdrop for tales such as Harry Potter, Lord of The Rings, Skyfall and Game of Thrones. It’s a place where the greens are greener, the air is
At the turn of the New Year, I declared 2016 the year of ‘doing.’ Of approaching life with a no hands-barred attitude. Instead of just talking about some great adventures, I’d be the one out there breathing the fresh air,
Sometimes, your next big adventure isn’t any further than your local park. So when opportunity comes knocking, you should never turn down the chance get out and enjoy your own city. I’m a 90’s child and a big fan of
A new year always welcomes the prospect of brand-new adventures and a fresh start. Whether you want to get in shape, start a new hobby or just spend more time on yourself, the possibilities are endless and the future is
It’s great when you see the fruits of your labor come to fruition, and even better when it all culminates in one momentous day. So, when I heard that the book I helped pen was available on Amazon on Jan. 1, I
I recently read an article saying it’s possible to run your business from a mountaintop. I’d love to say I’m doing that right now, but I just don’t see the benefit of toting a laptop up a mountain. However, I

I recently wrote an article about ditching your office for a day or week (or heck, why not forever?). I suggested some ways to get out of your day-to-day rut and inject some new creativity into your business by traveling
Luke the Couchsurfer came to me from the East coast…on bike. Let me say that again: he was bicycling across the United States by himself. (Another person who inspired my very own adventures). I felt terrible then, that the event
