I had previously been to Austin on a cross country motorcycle trip a few years ago. We were tired and didn’t get much time to get around and see any of the sites. I was happy this time to have some free time to get around and experience more of the city. A few friends […]

Richmond, Virginia
Took a short work trip to Richmond, Virginia earlier this year. I was not sure what to expect during our stay except for the heat. We stayed in a nice centrally located hotel. It was nice to be able to walk around to the restaurants. A lot of the store fronts on the main streets […]
St. Louis, Missouri
Took a trip out to St. Louis for a week of work. I had been through before on a cross country drive, but never spent any time there. Our schedule allowed us to have some free time to roam around and eat some tasty foods. We also made the time to go up in The […]
British Virgin Islands
Spent two weeks working on Virgin Gorda, in the British Virgin Islands. It is quite the trek to travel there from the west coast. Three planes and a boat got us to our destination. We were situated right at the end of Virgin Gorda where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean. The wind at this time […]
New York City, New York
It has been a while since I have visited New York for fun. Most of my trips there have been piggy backed on other work trips with not much free time. My friend Matt was sent out to work on a project for a few months. I took the opportunity to head out and stay […]
Anguilla
First trip of the year was spent escaping the California “winter” into the warm, Caribbean island of Anguilla. It took two flights, a boat, and van ride to get to our destination. Upon arriving we were greeted with a beautiful sunset overlooking a nice sandy beach. The next morning started with getting up before the sun […]
São Paulo, Brazil
After a little over a week of spending time in less populated areas of world, I had to prepare myself for entering one of the most populated cities. I like to do a little research about a city or area I will be visiting before hand. Seeing the statistics of São Paulo I knew we […]
Road Trip: London to Cannes and back
I was asked to join a team to do work on a project in London and in France last year and signed right up. When we arrived there was a big location change in France from Paris to Cannes, about half the country away. There was then an equipment rental issue, someone would have to drive […]
Santa Marta & Cartagena, Colombia.
Had a brief visit to the two colorful cities of Santa Marta and Cartagena in Colombia. Had to chance to just go walk around and get a feel for the places. The colors and people were both vibrant and warm. In Santa Marta I was able to catch some Salsa dancers give us a little […]
Mexico City
Only living a few hours from Mexico, I really have not been that much. Mexico is not close driving wise, but is just a short flight away from LAX. I was happy to get the chance to head down for a week for work. We had a pretty busy schedule but I was able to […]
