China. Wow. What can I say other than, it changed my life. Forever! And not just because I grew my boobs there. This is a country that prior to our grand world escapade, meant little more to me than the cliché of “digging a hole in your backyard to […]
I’ve spent almost every birthday for the past 11 years in a different country, so I decided I’d stick to tradition for my 26th last week! I was so happy when the ladies accepted my very last minute proposal to do an all-girls, five-country, ONE-day birthday blitz road […]
Big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the love of my life! Since Kees and I share the same birthday week, for the past few years we’ve done a traditional birthday holiday. This year Kees decided to go with his African drumming band “Tranzulu” to Terschelling, a northern Dutch Island, to […]
Cape Verde photo essay
Sometimes being an expat overseas leaves you feeling lonely or even outcasted, but one of the biggest highlights is the constant excitement. No matter how long I live here, I don’t think I’ll ever stop taking pictures of the beauty around me. I am a forever tourist in […]
What an experience! Cameroon ranks so highly as one of the most adventurous countries I’ve visited. We ventured through Nigeria headed south into Cameroon where we INSTANTLY hit a battle field of mud. We were so fortunate to have joined forces earlier on the road with other travellers. […]
Cambodia is a small country in Southeast Asia. I haven’t been there yet but certainly have it on my list of places to see. Ammon went years ago on one of his early adventures and loved it, he couldn’t stop saying how amazing Angkor Wat was. Mom took […]
A couple months ago Volume 1 in the Sihpromatum series, “I Grew My Boobs in China” was released to the Chinese market in CHINESE! I have been working with a company called Fiberead for the past year to have my first book translated into Chinese, so it was […]
We entered Burundi via an overland border after crossing Tanzania, East to West from Dar Es Salaam. What a journey! Burundi was surprisingly green and mountainous and we loved staying on the lake beach. It was the first and only country where I’ve ever seen bicycles transporting large loads of […]
It’s completely irrelevant because only people who know “Bill Nye will get this, but every time I hear Brunei I hear, “Brunei The Science Guy.” This tiny, little Asian country, on the island of Borneo and completely surrounded by the Malaysian State of Sarawak. Brunei is one I […]
I want to be honest with you and let you know that I may be biased because Vancouver is my hometown, but I truly believe it is one of the most spectacular destinations in the world! There is so much to do in and around Vancouver from winter […]
We were in Bulgaria for just over two weeks and spent most of our time in the capital city, Sofia and relaxing on the beach in Varna. We met many locals and travellers. Strolled the streets of Varna eating ice-cream and soaking up the sun rays. We saw […]
After many long months conquering the challenging west side of the African continent, the landlocked country of Botswana in southern Africa was a HUGE breath of fresh air. I’d never thought much about Botswana before visiting the country because you always relate Africa with Kenya, South Africa or […]
I knew our flight from Amsterdam to Vancouver was too perfect and thus our inevitably DOOMED return trip to Holland…. Normally I only fly direct to and from Vancouver and Amsterdam, so perhaps that was my first mistake. Our flight from Vancouver to Calgary was delayed forcing us […]
