Hiking in the snow? Count me in! Panoramaweg here we come!
Hiking in the snow? Well if you have not figured it out yet from my last post, I am not the “hiker” that some people are, but I am slow and steady. I will get to my destination, it just takes me a bit longer. Whitney, on the other hand, is in fine physical form […]

Have you been to Zermatt?
The Matterhorn Amazing is the first word that comes to my mind. Zermatt yes, but the Matterhorn, not the Disney version with the abominable snowman, but the “real” Matterhorn. It consumes the skyline when you are in Zermatt and for good reason. So incredible to even be here. Once again Whitney and I are traveling the […]

Breathtaking (literally), The Cliffs of Moher…

I have to admit… riding ATV’s was… muy divertido!
Ride an ATV? No way That is what I said when the subject first came up. Well, I am sure glad they insisted and I did it. It was a blast. After leaving Machu Picchu and spending a glorious night in a nice hotel, sleep makes a great difference. I can do this I told […]

The unequivocal Machu Picchu
So you think you can just hike Machu Picchu Well, I am sure you can, but let’s be clear, this is not your average hike. Not really sure if this is a hike, I like to call it a mountain climb, I mean after all Machu Picchu means “old mountain”. Let me just off by saying […]
