We passed through Congo in just a few days. Despite a short visit, Congo made a lasting impression. A country full of barbed-wire, armed guards and police in the streets, patrols, dirt roads, river crossings, smiling children running next to our trucks, vast landscapes, bug bites and my […]
I want to say a belated happy birthday to our precious owl, Echo, who shares the same hatch/birthday as me. She turned ONE on June 14th! Mom has done an amazing job with her, slowly training her to fly to her for love without the tethers. For […]
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 […]

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 […]
