Stories from far away..
So, you find yourself as an American teaching in a far away place (Busan, South Korea to be exact)… What do you do now… You write about it. And, Brittany Weyen has being doing just that. As she grows through her experiences, so does her blog. Gotta love her students.
around the world on a toilet
Nick was a paramedic and Lianna, a travel agent. They both left their careers in Canada behind, crammed a bunch of necessary stuff into backpacks and ventured off to Asia for eight months. Guess what, whether together or separately, they haven’t stopped traveling yet. (One question… where is the toilet?)
LandLopers: Experiencing the World On a Budget
Though some may argue the point, “travel” does not revolve solely around backpacking. On the contrary, and Matt Long has proof. He enjoys hotels, resorts, not making his own bed, lounging by the pool and a few other “cushy” amenities. He also does it on a budget. LandLopers is a great place for “how it’s [...]
legless llamas can travel too.
Samantha (Sam) Lee writes about her thoughts and travel experiences on legless llamas can travel too. Looking at the photo on her site – that’s an iffy statement. (Though, it may be true…) Regardless, this native of Singapore has much to say – all enjoyable.

Gibbering Madness: Snapshots of a Bizarre Life
Gibbering Madness: Snapshots of a Bizarre Life is a very interesting site to be sure. There, Alex weaves his web of real life adventures. The entries are written in true “mystery novelist” style and Alex will have you wondering if he’s been “channeling” Dashiell Hammett (The Maltese Falcon) or Herman Melville (Moby Dick). Something says [...]

Allison and Jeremiah felt the “best way to see the world on a teacher’s salary, and continue doing what they loved (educating children), was to teach abroad”. They packed they bags and headed to Taiwan. Their adventure has just begun. Where it will lead? Well, not even they can say but it’s sure to be [...]
Contemporary Nomad
Once upon a time, Tony and Thomas lead sedentary lives. Thankfully, they “chucked” it all for travel and invite you to join their journeys at Contemporary Nomad. Self-described as a mixture of adventure, travel, culture and opinion – they cover all vividly.
