A fun story I wrote about visiting Khinaliq, in the mountains of Azerbaijan, in the winter. Hopefully it's entertaining!

Stayed in Kaanapali beach at Kaanapoli Shores and had an amazing trip exploring the island! The whales were jumping and breaching all over the island! Crazy to see whales from shore. Highly recommend Aston Kaanapoli Shores when visiting West Maui! Full trip and Experience video:

Perhaps this fits in this subreddit, If anyone wants to see a different way of traveling, practically moneyless, sleeping on the beach, going around during the day trying to find some shelter, be it in the way of a work-exchange or what not.

Has anybody traveled to Oman (or a similar country) during Ramadan. What was your experience? I am planning to visit Oman during Ramadan. Are shops open? Can one take away food from restaurant? I just want to add that I will stay at somebody´s home.

Wecked by wars, and ruled by reckless fanatics, Afghanistan doesn't feel like a suitable destination for tourism. And of course, if you mean a holiday trip, it is not. But for a dedicated explorer, it's definitely worth taking a bit of risk - aside from the obvious bragging rights, it gives you a chance to travel back in time in more aspects than most low-tech countries. Here are a few practical guidelines- since most advices you'll find online are limited to "don't go unless you have a death wish".

Edited to put this at the top - TLDR: lost an earring in the ocean and magically found it

Just got back from a 12 day trip to Athens and the islands of Santorini, Paros, and Mykonos. We were actually supposed to visit Hydra and the Saronic islands but there was a safety issue with the boat so we had to divert. Ended up still being a fun trip despite the tourist crowds that we originally wanted to avoid.

Anyway! We had this tour guide (TG) from Athens who was an absolute character. He had the energy of a chihuahua and had so many people come up to say hi to him it seemed like he knew everyone in Athens (and had the hookups to prove it). I will be quoting his silliness for the rest of my life.

One of his many running jokes was that he was actually Poseidon and therefore we would have the best trip ever under his control. On day 6 his skills were put to the test.

We had taken a 7hr boat cruise from Paros to visit the Blue Lagoon and other gorgeous areas around the island. At one of our stops one of the tour members came up out of the water and said his Apple Watch was missing. We had all brought goggles so it was all hands on deck to see if we could find it. Minutes later TG comes up with the biggest smile on his face and the Apple Watch in his hand. Of course he found it because he is Poseidon! He gained lots of praise and definitely let it go to his head but it was so cute because of how much of a goofball he is. So wholesome!

Fast forward to a couple days later when we were in Mykonos. I was swimming at Paradise Beach and realized I had lost an earring. I was extra bummed because they had belonged to my grandmother and I got them after she died. Yes I realize I shouldn’t have been wearing them but they had made it through 8 days on the islands already and there was a personal meaning for me to honor my Gammy by keeping her with me on my travels.

So I mention to TG and the group that it was lost and of course “Poseidon” wanted to help. Him and I grabbed the goggles and were out looking for a few minutes. I went to the area I thought it was lost and kicked around. Suddenly I feel something stab into the heel of my foot and low and behold it’s the earring! No f**ing way I think as I quietly thank my Gammy for stabbing me in the foot and staying with me.

I swim over to where TG is looking and hand him the earring. He’s just as surprised as me but I tell him to take it and tell our group that yet again Poseidon has come through and found it. He says no but I say trust me just take the credit. So he does. Revels in the glory. And then off to the side thanks me saying he’s loving the attention 🤣🥰

A lot of the countries I have been to have their own liquor or moonshine. Most of the time you buy them in unlabeled water bottles as though someone made them in their basement. And to be honest, I'm quite certain the truth isn't too far off from that. Bali has arak, Greece has ouzo, Albania has raki, and Ecuador has punta.

But in Vilcabamba, Ecuador you can find a very different kind of punta.

At a restaurant, a little outside the tiny town center, is a pizzeria called Shanta's. The owner, for lack of a better word, is really cool. His restaurant was decorated almost exclusively with pictures from the movie Tombstone, he had a mustache that rivaled Sam Elliott's, and he hunted venomous snakes in cutoff jean shorts to make the special drink that you see pictured.

Venomous snakes have been used throughout history in the liquor making process. It's said that it gives whiskey a distinct flavor but also has some health benefits such as aiding in pain relief and used as a strong aphrodisiac.

Maybe this is why Shanta has a stern rule of only one shot per person and no more.

After drinking the snake punta I can't say I felt any pain relief, although I was in no pain from before or that I noticed feeling anymore... sensual than usual 😆 What I can verify is that it definitely had a unique flavor. One that I have not tasted since and when I find myself back in Vilcabamba, I'll be sure to try it again.

Most of my days traveling are not like this picture, even though it may seem that way. I work a lot and even though I was on a tiny island like Bali for 5 months, I only made it to the beaches 3 times and most were quick trips. Most people have not traveled the way I do. Typically people have a week in a new country and it's a whirlwind week where you run around and exhaust yourself, then go home and rest. I live in these places, therefore that type of vacation travel is impossible for me. I would burnout within a month. I wouldn't have been able to do the 3 years I have endured this far.

Having said that, I've been fortunate enough to experience plenty of days where my only worry was relaxing, having fun, and enjoying the culture around me. Places that held up their promise of sitting on a beach chair in paradise and Padangbai was one of them.

To get to this hidden beach you must walk through town and find a path with a huge sign that says "Do Not Enter." Of course, I entered. This is not to say that I am one to disrespect local laws or private property. But this path was on Google maps, the land was not occupied and plenty of locals had suggested this beach- so I disregarded the sign.

After a healthy trek up a steep hill in flip flops and a bikini in Southeast Asia heat, I was beginning to wonder where this path was actually taking me or if I had made a wrong turn somewhere. Cresting the hill, I see an older man that smiles and waves me down. Hoping I wasn't getting lured into a trap, I followed his direction. A few moments later this beautiful sight unfolded before me. The bluest water, the calmest waves and a beach all to myself.

I spent 2 full days enjoying the view from my beach chair with not a care in the world. I made friends with the locals who owned the restaurants, we drank arak together, and I even shared a fish that a kid caught snorkeling and had grilled right on the beach.

After nearly 3 years, I have had days where if I had been lost at sea I might have felt more grounded but days, like the one pictured, make up for it.

#52- Brujas

Outside the city center of Granada lies a network of caves that have been transformed into little houses on the hillside with a view of the Alhambra. This is where the gypsies lived when they came to Spain in the 15th century and it is estimated that 50,000 gypsies still live in Granada today. Oppressed throughout their history in Spain by not being able to practice their beliefs or speak their own language and being forced to marry non-gypsies to dilute the bloodline, there are still rumors that they practice magic and to cross one would not be in your best interest.

I didn't put much stock into any of the talk about them being considered Brujas (Spanish word for witch) every country has its folklore.

That was until I met one.

Granada is probably the safest place I've ever traveled to and one of the few that I felt completely comfortable walking around at night. The only time I felt uncomfortable was walking near the main cathedral where an older lady grabbed my hand and shoved what I thought to be a branch of rosemary in my hand. I was confused and wasn't sure about what was going on or what was being said- my Spanish not being the best. I looked at my partner with pleading eyes as this older lady went on mumbling about my future husband, happiness, and how I would travel, all while reading my palm with a smile. He translated for me and after the reading was done, I smiled, thanked her and went to walk away.

She held on tight to my hand and started talking very sternly with a serious face. She said if I did not pay her what was owed she was going to curse me. I told her I didn't have cash on me, which was a lie- I had about $20. She then told me I was lying and repeated that I would be cursed. She really started to scare me and I could tell by the look in her eyes she was serious. So I gave her the cash and went along my way feeling very unsettled.

Thankfully, I avoided a curse by that strange, old woman but I never again questioned the rumors that the gypsies of Granada were Brujas.

Great story!

Hello my name is Syed, I am a PhD student in psychology who creates videos related to my research on spirituality, mindfulness and well-being. I visited Turkey (Istanbul, Ankara, Cappadocia, Antalya) with my wife in the summer of 2022 and recorded this vlog/video reflecting on the historical, cultural and religious dimensions of this beautiful nation. I go from the Neolithic period all the way to the Ottoman Era and reflect on certain destinations and heritage world sites we visited. I also speak on Pakistan-Turkish relations and the beautiful masjid around Turkey.

Background: I was part of a volunteer group that helped rebuild a school in an impoverished village in Tanzania. Most of the children there had no idea what they looked like in terms of their physical appearance. This was due to a combination of myths surrounding looking in mirrors, lack of access to bare necessities (let alone mirrors & other vanity items), and many other variables. They had never seen their reflections other than through bodies of water such as lakes & rivers. Here's what it was like:

It was an immense privilege to have had this experience and bear witness to the sheer beauty and intensity of these moments--one that I am extremely grateful for every day since then.

Some kids were initially hesitant to look into the cameras, but once they did, there was a palpable shift in the atmosphere. There were instances when perhaps a child found something in the photo they weren't expecting or simply couldn't believe what they were seeing: a look of confusion would wash over them before being replaced by total awe and wonder. They seemed overwhelmed by the realization that this was who they looked like, which made me sad for them in knowing that so much of their understanding of who they are had been robbed from them due to superstitions surrounding mirrors, limited access to resources, etc. They couldn't believe what they saw: their own faces smiling back at them for the very first time. As the kids stared at the images of themselves, some alongside their families and others who had no family and held onto us instead, wide-eyed and uncertain, I noticed many of them take a few moments to pause and reflect upon the portraits presented before them. It was as if these images had provided an access point to something that had been denied to them up until this point – knowledge about their physical appearance. For many of the kids, it seemed as though these images were a bridge between the person they thought they knew themselves to be and the person that now stared back at them from those photographs. Some of them started touching their faces with wonderment and amazement in disbelief that it was actually them looking at themselves. The expressions of joy, surprise, and marvel were indescribable. I had never seen such raw emotion on children's faces before. They would smile, laugh, and point at themselves, some with disbelief and others with struck with utter fascination. Some even laughed out loud with happiness, knowing that they now had tangible memories of how they used to look when they were younger - something most elders there could only dream of having access to previously. Mothers and fathers embraced each other and wept tears of joy as they held visual reminders of their children's youth in their hands. They, too, no longer had to fear that their children's youthful faces would fade into blurred memories of distant reflections as these photos provided them with rememberings that would otherwise progressively vanish. I felt immensely lucky to have witnessed such an important rite of passage for these children; one that I hope will help shape how they understand and view themselves in years to come.

The sight of such innocence and gratitude was too profound, reducing several volunteers to their knees as they wept at the sight of innocence, joy, pain, and indescribable beauty before them. My own strength barely held me upright as compassion coursed through my veins, and a seismic tremor shook my core. Seeing this moment of recognition was an honor, an invaluable reminder of the strength and resiliency of the human spirit and our capacity for joy born from adversity. I was also struck by how fleeting this moment seemed, no matter how beautiful it was in that very instant. These moments are precious; they come into our lives unexpectedly, brightening our days until they fade away too quickly—a reminder that we must savor them while we can because life moves so fast and is filled with both beauty and sorrow that pass us by in an instant if we don't take notice. 

Everyone felt a sense of deep understanding and connection to each other that transcended words. Even though we all spoke different languages, cried different tears, and had different backgrounds, we all shared a common bond in that single moment. I still get chills thinking about it; those fascinatingly diverse reactions to one common experience seemed to perfectly embody what it means to be human in all its incredible complexity. It felt like a shared moment of pure joy between us all, almost as if our individual experiences and stories didn't matter anymore. We were just filled with this sense of camaraderie brought forth by this single, universally shared experience. At the end of the day, we are ultimately just searching for moments that bring us together. Those moments when the kids saw their physical selves for the first time will always stay with me as a reminder that no matter how many differences may distinguish us, beauty can be found in any shared human experience.

P.S. If anyone has a similar, life-changing story that they experienced while doing volunteer work or whatever else, I'd love to hear it!

Mine was seeing the looks on children's faces after seeing their reflections for the first time. That definitely altered my brain chemistry quite a bit.

Hiya everyone, I'm very excited to announce my new travel memoir 'Backpacker to Nomad'

This book is a collection of adventures, misadventures, and important moments from the first five years of my accidental nomadic life! Why was it accidental, well because it was only meant to be a 1-year backpacking trip to Australia but through circumstances, situations, and luck (good and bad) this journey which started in 2010 just didn't stop. Only Covid put a pause on it for a couple of years. The book dives into my mentality changes over the years, my renegade inner voices, and why I can't return to normal life.

If you love escaping to countries far and wide for adventure, discovery, and despair this is a book you will love jumping into :D

'Backpacker to Nomad' is available in paperback on Amazon worldwide, the eBook on kindle and FREE for kindle unlimited readers

Hi everyone,

I'm currently in the process of writing a book about my ten years traveling the world and how i turned from backpacker to nomad, and life as a long-term traveler in the form of a collection of short stories highlighting adventures and misadventures I've had along the way.

I'm also releasing bookexcrpts from each story - here's the latest one

​

....

It was as if there were two lives, running parallel with each other. One provided the amazing once in a lifetime experience’s, incredible wanders, feelings, witnessing and living through phenomenal discovery. The other was a strew of endless bad luck.

Physically there was nothing I could do and mentally it was eating away at me like a parasite. With the help of my friends thoughts would momentarily disappear but return like a led balloon. How can life be so amazing and awful at the same time. On this trip there were so many soaring highs, just to be dropped and crash back to earth.

The boat rocked a little spilling the remaining coffee into the sea. My free hand clutched tight around the metal rail, which was all the protection there was from falling overboard from u. And with my luck that wasn’t as farfetched as it seemed.

instinct, luck, and a pipe, being saved from death in our travels quick read, enjoy.

A few years ago I went a trip for my 16th birthday. I was flying alone for the first time, but meeting family there. it was about a 2 hour flight. I was sitting in the window seat in a row of 3, the person on the outside we’ll call IP(innocent passenger) and the woman in the middle WP(weird passenger) WP looked like she was maybe 20, she was missing some front teeth, and hadn’t showered and what seemed like a month.

About 45 minutes after take off, WP has fallen asleep, I think nothing of it and put my headphones in, i just wanted to relax. Then WP started to lean on IP’s shoulder, I figured they were travelling together, but about 15 minutes later WP starts leaning towards me, and I take my headphones out while squishing myself against the wall, I look at IP, and they say “i guess it’s your turn” with a bit of a laugh, I asked IP if they knew WP and they say no. Now I’m a pretty relaxed person, so I just keep my distance, but soon WP starts leaning so far that I can’t avoid her anymore, I shake her leg a couple of times but she’s out cold, she occasionally lifts her self back up while shes asleep, but leans one way or another pretty soon after. For the rest of the flight WP is leaning back and forth between IP and me, while we try out best to avoid her, awkwardly laughing about it. When we land, I guess another passenger had mentioned something the the flight attendant and she walks up to the three of us, WP still out cold. The attendant asks if they was a problem durning the flight, IP and I say she’s been asleep on us for the most of it, and the flight attendant says ok, and walks away. WP finally wakes up, and quietly apologizes to us. We’re waiting to get off for quite a while, and I start wondering why. Soon the flight attendant comes back with airport security and police, and asks WP to go with them. (I thought it was a bit of an overreaction at first) WP is getting a bit aggressive but stands up, once she does, a man from the back of the plane comes running up, he looked like he was about 50 and was also missing some teeth, and needed a shower. I thought, oh boy, her dad. Then he says “what are you doing with my wife!?” My first thought was that’s a pretty big age gap… but whatever. WP’s husband is yelling at the officer, and they both get escorted off the plane. The flight attendant comes back and tell IP and I that she had a lot of drugs in her system, and both of them were smuggling more in their bags.

That’s the last time I fly alone.

Hey guys, I’m walking across America and finally nearing Yellowstone where my walk across America will transform into a walk through all the national parks in the lower 48. It will be a ~20,000 mile journey and will take around 3 years.

My walk started in Illinois back in January and walked down to San Diego, where I touched the ocean and turned north and followed the 1 up the coast until I reached Newport, Oregon and began my trek east towards Yellowstone. I’m ~4,500 miles into my journey and would love to share the beauty of this journey with you. It has been a beautiful one, full of kind stories that inspire hope and rekindle your faith in your fellow human.

Hi everyone,

I am in the process of writing my 2nd travel book, this one is all about the adventures and misadventures from a decade of living a nomadic life.

This post I've recently published explains more about the book

https://www.foreverroamingtheworld.com/travel-adventure-misadventure-book/

the following story is dedicated to the corrupt mayor of Iguazu who fattens his pockets at the expense of travelers everywhere. A "tax" that goes, likely, towards paying off his mistresses. enjoy, it's a short read

I spent over a year slow-traveling India, and a few years across South America, Southeast Asia, and Europe. Unsurprisingly, my life has flipped upside down more than a few times during this period.

I've written about a book's worth of travel stories that I'm now hosting on my website (link below). You can read the full chapter there, and sign up free to get weekly stories sent to your email inbox. I hope you sign up if you like it (and if you don't like something, i'd love to hear about it)

"Mesmerized by my own steady footsteps down the seemingly infinite road, I scarcely recognized the distant rumble of a motorcycle engine behind me. I pulled the thin scarf off from around my head, removing my sunglasses so the rider could see my face more clearly as I waved him down. I watched him slow down as my squinting eyes hid the excitement I felt – excitement from the rush of the unknown, from living at the edge of my comfort zone, and from the odd sense of pride I'd found at how natural this was starting to feel."
