Old People & Florida

June 18, 2011 by The Runaway Guide 4 Comments

If you ask Jerry Seinfeld about Florida and Old people, he would tell you, “They Drive Slow and they sit low. The State flag of Florida should be a hat, a steering wheel, and some knuckles on it.” And for the most part, I couldn’t agree with him more. A great deal of my time […]

Save The Cows, Eat DOG Instead

June 17, 2011 by The Runaway Guide 17 Comments

One of my favorite things about travel is experiencing a culture far from my own. I love to learn about various customs, beliefs and traditions from around the world. I find it so fascinating because it enables me to examine and reflect on my own culture. And doing so forces me to question my own […]

An Earthquake State Of Mind

May 12, 2011 by The Runaway Guide 6 Comments

Over the course of my travels I have been witness to some pretty intense events, both natural and manmade. I have been held captive by furious forest fires in the city of Santa Barbara, California.
