Welcome to Buenos Aires, Watch Your Pockets
It had to happen sooner or later. For over 7 months, whenever I’m riding public transportation in a foreign country I’m “aware of my surroundings.” I can’t even count the number of buses, trains, planes, boats, canoes, tuk-tuks I’ve been on and all the while have been vigilant, bordering paranoia.

Exploring South Africa’s Cape Peninsula
We spent over a week in Cape Town with rain every day. Not the small showers of rain that you can slip out in between and grab a bite to eat, but the constant downpour of rain where all you want to do is stay in your PJ’s and climb under the covers. Our last […]
