On any list of best drives in America, you’ll see the Overseas Highway, driving from the tip of Florida all the way to Key West. I can’t recommend it enough. What people don’t often realize this two-hour plus adventure (not counting the time from Miami) covers over 100 miles of Keys. Yes, there are more […]

by Craig Zabransky on March 24, 2016 in Destination, Mexico Travel
The long road trip across the state of Chihuahua reached its final stage as we traveled north back towards the border and a final stop in Casas Grandes. Here we would enjoy the chance to see and learn about Mata Ortiz pottery, visit, dine (privately) and take in a sunset at Hacienda San Diego , […]

by Craig Zabransky on March 18, 2016 in Destination, Mexico Travel
We boarded the bus and left Palenque well before sunrise. We needed to travel far, not in distance per se, but the roads would take us through the jungles of inner Chiapas. Our destination: the Mayan Ruins of Bonampak, one of the must see, best Mayan sites in Chiapas. What’s the Buzz Inside Bonampak? The […]

by Craig Zabransky on January 25, 2016 in Destination, Events
Viewing all the playful snow images after Jonas, the 2016 blizzard that hit the east coast of the states, I realized I do miss winter, especially the snow. Yes, I’ll admit it.

Although I am not new to Miami, I’ve visited the destination countless times since the early 2000s, I now consider the city more of my home turf with my current relocation to Islamorada and the upper Florida Keys. My visits are now not just to escape the cold (or experience the cool). I discovered much […]

by Craig Zabransky on October 10, 2015 in Destination, Podcast Show Notes
A visit to Singapore will be one for the senses. The city-state offers the chance for everyone to truly experience sensations of a big city in a comfortable and safe manner.
