Just before flying to El Paso, Texas I was told – we’d spend a night in Juarez too. Where? ….. Donde? Ciudad Juarez. Yes, that Juarez; the Juarez from the news. I joked about the fact it was clearly staying adventurous with the trip organizers, but admittedly, I wondered if it was also staying safe. […]

A Volunteer’s View from the New York Special Olympics Summer Games held in Buffalo, NY
by Craig Zabransky on August 6, 2013 in Adventure Mindset, Destination
The New York Special Olympics games are the sixth-largest Special Olympics gathering in the world. I’ve been a supporter for many years, but this year I just couldn’t write the check and call that the extent of my donation. No, I decided to volunteer. I took the pilgrimage from the hustling, bustling city of […]

by Craig Zabransky on May 21, 2013 in Adventure Mindset, Destination
I couldn’t sleep; in fact I was wide awake. Alive. I guess you can say the lights kept me up. After my first night I even wondered if the Northern Lights, my first views of the Aurora Borealis, were just a dream, but after a second night of embracing the arctic air, the vibrant, dancing lights […]

Dear Spring, welcome. After the past few days in New York City, it might finally be safe to say spring has arrived. Actually, it arrived a month ago. No, I am not talking about the spring (vernal) equinox, but rather the Hindu Holi Festival. Happy Holi I knew next to nothing about Holi (although my […]

Driving The Roads of Scotland – An Adventure in Itself
by Craig Zabransky on October 3, 2012 in Adventure Mindset, Destination
I don’t often drive; I don’t even own a car. But on certain trips renting a car is the right call even if it is driving on the left side of the road. Scotland was one of those trips. I decided to drive and hire a car in Glasgow since my time was short in the […]

A Hike on the Red Sand Dunes of Sossusvlei
by Craig Zabransky on November 17, 2011 in Adventure Mindset
After the drinks arrived we started discussing Namibia with our server. She shared her experiences and told us a key point, make sure you run down the sand dunes. Miles away both physically and mentally we sipped cocktails at the Grand in Camps Bay, Cape Town. In just a few days we’d put on hiking […]
