Finding your past: How one conversation led me to citizenship in 27 countries

by 1 Comment

Have you ever thought about where you came from? Not where you were born but where your parents, your grandparents, your great grandparents, and so forth came from? It’s quite inspiring and amazing to hear the stories that our ancestors went through. If your from North America, then it’s practically guaranteed that your ancestors came from places in  Europe, Africa, or Asia. Maybe they came from tribes in South America. Doesn’t it inspire you to look? Find out if they were of royal blood or if they were rebels. Find out the travels and tribulations that eventually led to you being born where you were. Here’s my recent story.

Scuba Diving – Another World of Inspiration and a place to build confidence

by 7 Comments

If you ever have the chance to try scuba diving, do it!  It is one of the most amazing and memorable things you will ever do.

I did this back in April 2009 when I was right in the middle of my 6 month backpacking trip throughout Australia and New Zealand.

Initially, I had no desire to scuba dive as I was quite nervous but definitely wanted to snorkel the Great Barrier Reef.

I was with my cousin Jeff at the time and we were looking at different day tours that would allow us to snorkel the reef. Luckily, one of them included a free 20 minute intro to scuba diving course. I’m so happy we came across this tour because this intro opened me up to the deep water world.

The Wise Mexican Fisherman – One of my favorite stories

by 1 Comment

An american businessman took a vacation to a small coastal Mexican village on doctor’s orders. Unable to sleep after an urgent phone call from the office the first morning, he walked out to the pier to clear his head. A small boat with just one fisherman had docked, and inside the boat were several large yellowfin tuna. The american complimented the Mexican on the quality of his fish.

“How long did it take you to catch them?” the american asked.

“Only a little while,” the Mexican replied in surprisingly good english.

“Why don’t you stay out longer and catch more fish?” The american then asked.

“I have enough to support my family and give a few to friends,” the Mexican said as he unloaded them into a basket.
