Have you ever traveled with a group of friends? I have been fantasizing of renting a chalet in the mountains and bringing a bunch of my friends.

“Mom I’m fine” - How one world traveler is earning his son of the year badge

•••
I’m sure none of us have ever come across overprotective parents in our lives. Like, how do you even spell that word? Jonathan Quinonez (and his Mom) are from Mexico. From the beginning of this year, he decided 27 years would be a good age to start a completely new life and travel the world. Good guy. #skydiving #sky #MomImFine #skylovers #mexico[...]

But today I want to talk about a different kind of weather as we have a he[...]
