For those that know me, know I love Mexico. The romance, the music, the adventure, the history, the culture, the cuisine, the cervezas… Ah, the list can continue and continue. Essentially it can go on for an entire blog post; there are many more than seven reasons. But I know Mexico, do you? I lived […]

A New USA USA USA chant needed for World Cup Matches?
After attending USA vs England in Rustenburg, South Africa I became aware once again that my national team’s chant of ” USA…USA…USA” needs a friend. In a nation that celebrates variety and creativity, I believe us Americans can sing more than just our “go to USA…” at the stadium. In fact, many other fans from […]
South Africa Continues to Heal Through Sports
“This is the first time I ever saw so many whites in Soweto,” a smiling store owner said to the local news. I agree, this was news. Orlando Stadium, located in Soweto, the all black suburb of Johannesburg and the epicenter of the student uprising of 1976 recently hosted an all South African Super 14 Rugby […]

Different architecture, different customs, different language. But perhaps the biggest difference for me came when I sat down for dinner. The […]
The Truth about Cinco de Mayo
Viva Mexico! Happy Independence Day Mexico! Right? Actually no. Independence Day celebrations start in Mexico on the 15th of September with the reenactment of the “El Grito.” The entire country prepares and watches as the cry for independence that began by Catholic priest, Miguel Hidalgo, is staged again at 11pm. Then the celebration officially […]
A Charity Casting Contest at Fat Buoyz
At first, when I heard “casting contest,” I wondered if reality TV decided to come to the Florida Keys. After so much time down here, I truly believe a show about life on the souther tip of Florida can top the nielsen ratings. But just steps away from Islamorada, the “Sports Fishing Capital of the […]
Green, the new color of Travel?
Green; the color of money (in the US), the color of envy? the color of energy? Maybe all three? Maybe you have none? But actually ‘green’ also seems to be becoming the color of travel. Words like “sustainability,” “organic” and “eco-tourism” are more and more prevalent each and every day. We all read them on travel websites […]
