    Top Kayak Fishing Spots in the U.S. Every Angler Must Visit

    September 25, 2025 / No Comments

    Kayak fishing has been a booming trend in the United States in the past ten years. It used to be considered a dorky activity, but it is now one of the fastest-expanding types of outdoor recreation. Why? Kayaks provide the angler with an opportunity to get into the shallow water quietly, access the hidden creeks, and have a whole new view of fishing. Kayaks, unlike bigger boats, will give you a closer look at the action, where you are immersed in the environment as you fish. A kayak fishing trip is a great combination of adventure and relaxation. Just as many good kayak fishing spots exist in the country, whether…

    All The Best Things To Do In Dubai

    September 11, 2025 / 3 Comments

    It’s hard to believe that just 40 years ago, Dubai was nothing but sand dunes. One thing is for sure now. There are plenty of things to do in Dubai. You can visit the Dubai attractions, explore the local culture and food, or explore the vast Arabian desert. Also, make sure to rent a car to make the most of your time. Based on my experience, using Discover Cars makes the rental process much smoother, especially with helpful features like filters that let you easily find the right vehicle for your trip. I highly recommend choosing full coverage for peace of mind—it’s worth it if you want to avoid unexpected…

    The Best Beaches In St. Petersburg and Clearwater, FL

    November 5, 2021 / 1 Comment

    I moved to Charleston over a year ago from Oregon, and one reason was to be in warmer weather and to be closer to the beach. Well, this has led to many trips to Florida, since it’s not that far away. And, that led to me discovering the beaches in St. Petersburg and Clearwater. I was astounded. I’ve mostly visited the eastern coast of Florida, but discovering the Gulf coast area has made me decide to move there next year. Here are the best beaches I’ve discovered in the area.

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.
