8 years! I’ve been hanging with good ol’ Bellroy now for 8 years. We’ve climbed Mt. Fuji, motorcycled around Nepal, and road tripped Scandinavia together to name a few. All this time, you’ve always had my back. Like that time I had no pen to fill out the customs form and you were there with […]
Guate’s Up On Lake Atitlan During Covid-19?
Where is your license plate? Where are your papers? Demanded the cop in Spanish. Around him stood 4 AK-47 toting masked military men. It’s times like these that you need to decide. You either let your nerves dominate you, or you… Boom. Game time. Spanish words that my subconscious somehow picked up from “Money Heist,” […]
How I Became Co-Creator Of Buddha Bear’s Enlightenment Coloring Book
When I ran away from home nearly 15 years ago, I never would have imagined I would be creating Buddhism inspired children’s books. To be honest, I always hoped I would be working as side kick to Indiana Jones or James Bond. Looking back though, it all somehow makes sense. So many of my experiences […]
Lufthansa First Class LH 760 Review: Italy To Nepal For 65k Points
After a scenic flight over the alps, our small plane taxied into it’s parking spot at Frankfurt Auf Main airport.

How Shopify Changed My Life: The First 1,000,000 in Sales
Life is something remarkable. One day you’re a homeless vagabond sitting up against a building getting pooped on simultaneously by two birds. The next day you’re on the 119th floor of the Ritz Carlton Hong Kong eating petit fours. It’s been almost 20 months since I made my first sale on Shopify. There’s not a […]
From Rags To Real Living: A Broke Runaway Turned Independent Entrepreneur
When I turned 28, I had to make a change. I was tired of sleeping on the street and eating leftovers from the dumpster. Most of all, I hated the stress of having to borrow money from friends, constantly check my account, and pay countless overdraft fees. I could not live on the edge anymore. […]
How To Start A Travel Blog & Make Real Money
Can you actually make money with a sports, fashion, food, travel or any kind of blog? Most people either don’t believe it’s possible or feel that they lack the confidence, computer skills, and writing ability to begin. In the beginning, I had held a similar skepticism, and complete lack of confidence. But today, I’m making enough money through this blog to […]

Having motorcycled through parts […]

Sala Rattanakosin: Bangkok’s “Floating” Boutique Hotel
We had just spent the day exploring Bangkok’s Grand Palace, and the great reclining Buddha at Wat Pho. As we headed back towards the river to catch a boat home, I took us down the wrong ally. Little did I know, it would be one of the best wrong turns I ever made. At the end of the ally, […]
A Bamboo Forest Cabin In The Japanese Countryside
Our train hurries away from the murky concrete sprawl of the world’s largest metropolis. It now hangs slow and tight along a winding ridge. A bright green bamboo forest brushes by. It suddenly gives way to an expanse of fields and mountains that take some seconds to comprehend. In the distance, pinks, reds and whites juxtapose dark greens. The colors flow down into […]
