4 Days in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua
Seven years ago this summer I discovered glamping. I also discovered the most comfortable, high-quality hammocks in the world. This was ideal for someone like me, whose second favorite pastime is napping. I also developed a taste for Toña beer and a love for volcanoes. I practiced my incredibly rusty Spanish with my tour guide, Elvis, while drinking a beer in the back of a seatbeltless Jeep. I took a motorboat across a shark-filled lake to look at an island filled with monkeys. I fell in love with Nicaragua.

Czech Out Accessible Prague
Prague is one of my favorite places on Earth, but fair warning, it’s considered only moderately accessible for wheelchair users. It’s also one of those great European cities paved almost entirely in ankle-breaking cobblestone. So if you’re hyper-mobile or walk with a cane like me, the city becomes decidedly less walkable and decidedly more hobble-able with copious breaks. But it is one of the most beautiful cities on Earth, and as such, I wanted to include a blog post about making a somewhat difficult place a little easier to navigate. So, grab a pork sausage and a pilsner and get ready to read all about Prague, the fifth most visited city in Europe, and the number one place in beer consumption!
4 Days, 5 Dogs, 6 Flights, and 1 Trip Around The World Via China
This would be easy enough. On July 4th I would fly twelve and a half hours from Los Angeles to Shenyang, China, have a 3 hour layover, then board the two hour flight from Shenyang to Beijing, where I would spend the night in a hotel by the airport, get up the next morning, meet the dogs at airport check in, and deliver them all to San Francisco. It was a good plan. …Except that’s not how it went at all.
