    July 27, 2015 / 15 Comments

    When booking a beach vacation, most people want to go to the best beaches in the world. But, often these beaches are the same ones that every tourist goes to. I have a different criteria for the best beaches in the world. I look for beaches that aren’t too crowded, that are full of natural beauty, and ones that offer something a little different from the rest.

About Me

I am always looking for the perfect escape, the perfect paradise, the kind of place that tosses your cares into the sea. Fortunately, I have discovered many! I created this site to show you where to go and how to get there. My goal is to show you that Paradise is only a plane ticket (or boat ride) away. I have inspired many others to travel and to create a better life. I am available for inspirational speaking, coaching, writing, travel planning, and photography.
