    Ambergris Caye, Belize

    January 12, 2013 / No Comments

    The snorkeling off of the Belize Barrier Reef is the best snorkeling that I’ve ever done in my life. This may be because it is the longest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere and the second longest in the world.  I snorkeled with sharks, stingrays, turtles, and about a million fish!! I highly recommend taking one of the snorkeling trips that are offered. Palapa Bar and Grill-www.thiswaytoparadise.com One of my other favorite experiences was hanging out at the Palapa Bar and Grill.  It is a palapa set out over the water, and gives some amazing views.  You can sit in the  inner tubes, and the wait staff will bring you…

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.
