TEXTURES of TRAVEL

Travel is all about enhancing the senses. In its basic form travel is about going on a wild ride to discover textures of the world. Watch the waves crash and foam on sandy shores as you journey coast to coast, marvel at the jagged peaks of barren ridges […]

Tips to Visiting the REAL Disney Castle – Neuschwanstein

The night before we had stayed a two-hour drive from the Neuschwanstein castle  opting for a very early morning rather than paying outrageously expensive hotel costs to sleep near the very touristic castle. I must confess that before visiting I knew very little about Neuschwanstein Castle. During the tour Anita […]

Slovenia

Pumpkin Seed Oil – Slovenia’s Specialty (road trip continues)

We all know the wonders of olive oil and sunflower oil, the two most common oils we use for cooking, in salads etc and if you’re like me, after a shower to keep your skin hydrated (bet you didn’t know that!). But have you ever heard of pumpkin […]

Kuwait

Kuwait Photo Essay

I have not been to Kuwait but both my brothers have. Skylar was there several times as it was a staging point and convoyed around a lot while he was serving in the US Marine Corps while on tour in Iraq.  Ammon was in the middle of his […]

Curiosity – The Spark of Travel

Curiosity is a funny thing. It’s probably the number one reason that has caused the obsession of travel for centuries. Without that pulling desire, that comes much stronger in some than others, we never would have come to learn that the world was in fact round and that […]

SLOVENIA- The Only Country With the Word LOVE In It! (birthday trip continued)

SLOVENIA- The Only Country With the Word LOVE In It! To be honest, I don’t know if that’s a true statement, I haven’t checked, but when I heard someone say that I thought, perfect! Originally Slovenia was not one of the countries on my urgent must-see travel list. […]
