Photo journal: Namibia, get here before the rest of the world finds out about it

January 27, 2018

You know that feeling when you're in a beautiful place and you're suddenly overcome by the moment? Nearly moved to tears by the sheer wonder of what you're seeing, overwhelmed by a feeling that there's no where in the world you'd rather be, a sense that you are truly living and a sort of premonition that this is a memory you'll revisit for your entire life? I live for this feeling. It's why I spend every cent on fli[...]

Photo journal: the best of beautiful Botswana

January 23, 2018

Although Botswana may not be at the top of your bucket list (and admittedly wasn't at the top of mine until 6 months ago, either), you'll wonder why not as soon as you lay eyes on this incredible country and its curious mix of desert and wetlands, its warm and hospitable people, its density of exotic African wildlife, and its nearly overwhelming number of national parks.  Amazingly, 80% of Botswana falls within[...]

Photo journal: Highlights from Victoria Falls

January 4, 2018

Whether from Zambia, Zimbabwe, above, below, or right on the edge of the Falls themselves, it's impossible to take a bad photo of Victoria Falls— everywhere you look, there are double rainbows and droplets of water so sparkly that you'd swear they are falling diamonds. Here are just a few photos of this beautiful natural wonder that will make you want to book tickets immediately. All the details: Victoria Falls[...]

Photo journal: view from the top of Table Mountain

December 28, 2017

Driving or flying into Cape Town for the first time, it's impossible to miss the enormous (and inarguably table-like) mountain that dominates the skyline of this beautiful coastal city. Table Mountain is more than just a good photo backdrop, though; it's also the perfect vantage point from which to admire the other mountains, sparkling beaches, and bustling city streets that make up this South African metropolis. Mu[...]

Photo journal: Highlights from my first South African safari

December 18, 2017

Our 5 unbelievable days on safari in Kruger National Park & Sabi Sands Private Reserve have left me with a lifetime of amazing animal memories (and several thousand photos that took a ridiculous amount of time to sort through). Maybe we got extremely lucky to see as much as we did or maybe safari is just always this exciting, but, either way, I wouldn't change a thing about my first South African safari and I wo[...]

Photo journal: Our final Oahu sunset

October 4, 2017

Our wonderful few weeks hopping around Hawaii are sadly coming to an end, but at least we're sending ourselves off with an absolute bang as we watch one last sunrise over the water in Honolulu. Of course, this is also the perfect opportunity to play around with my fancy new camera, so choosing just a few photos to include is becoming more and more challenging. Enjoy some of the better shots (still have much to l[...]

Photo journal: highlights from roadtripping NZ

January 14, 2016

Our 5 weeks in New Zealand flew by far too quickly and I didn’t get to see half of the things I wanted to, yet I’ve still come away thinking that this is one of the most amazing places I’ve ever been and I can’t wait to get back. Missing our lush little neighbour already, I thought I’d compile my favourite photos from the trip into a single post. Read more about New[...]

Photo journal: adios, South America. Thanks for the tan.

December 4, 2014

After 3 months traveling through Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, and Brazil; trekking through both Chilean and Argentinian Patagonia and along the Inca Trail; volunteering in a medical centre and on a jungle conservation project in the Amazon; partying it up in Rio de Janeiro at Carnaval; biking through Malbec wine country; roadtripping through southern Bolivia and the Mars-like San Pedro de Atacama... I can truly s[...]

Photo journal: drop everything and go to Thailand

March 2, 2014

After returning from 2 months in Southeast Asia, I have to say that Thailand indisputably takes the cake for most photogenic destination. While Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos all offer plenty of beautiful spots and interesting culture, when it comes to jaw-dropping turquoise beaches and nearly deserted tropical islands, there is simply no contest. Here are some photo highlights from my month in Thailand this February.[...]

Photo journal: Off to Luang Prabang

January 25, 2014

After another overnight bus (and several embarrassing bike accidents on the way to the bus), we arrive in Luang Prabang at 530am, gorging and cold. On principal, we refuse to pay the shocking price ($5 takes on new meaning in Asia) and instead decide to the 3kms into town with all of our bags. We are joined by our Dutch friend, Manuel, who is a seasoned Luang Prabang visitor and leads us right to the market in town[...]
