On a special “MexMonday,” (it’s Mexico bicentennial celebration week) I wanted to post a photo that’s special to me. Not solely because of the substance, but also because it enabled me to meet a great community of people who promote Mexico. People I now call my friends. On an excursion to visit some of the […]

Umqombothi. Say that three times. In fact even say it once. Not easy. But a lot easier to drink? Well maybe not, but it’s an adventure. After my 1/2 day tour via Acacia Africa that took me to visit the District Six Museum and a local township outside of Cape Town, our last stop, not like any […]

The Giraffe is not officially part of the African Big 5. But I believe seeing one live in the wild clearly leaves an impression just as memorable as any of the Big 5. A safari is not the same without seeing this magnificent mammal. From watching them run in Zimbabwe near Victoria Falls, to seeing […]
