If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!What a week I’ve just had! Skydiving in Santa Barbara, sliding through the canal in Panama, sipping cervezas in Columbia, cavorting on the beach in Costa Rica, and now about to board an airplane home in Aruba. 
As I think [...]

Benefits Of Economic Recession

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

Is there something in the air that’s getting people down lately? My guess is that with all the news about the drop in home prices, stock prices, and consumer confidence a lot of people are starting to feel pretty bad about themselves and their future. 
Some of the emails I’ve been getting recently accuse me of making [...]

Cruise To Italy

Sunday, October 26th, 2008

I just got back from performing on a cruise in Italy so here’s everything you need to know about the Italian ports of call (just in case you ever take a cruise there):
* Venice – It’s beautiful, it’s small, it’s sinking, and contrary to popular belief it’s not stinking. Water smells nice actually, still I wouldn’t drink it.
* Naples – birthplace [...]

What we see around us everyday we come to view as normal. Take on a new perspective and all that changes. This is why travel used to be considered an essential part of education.
I have been performing my hypnosis show on a cruise ship in Europe this past week. It has been awesome (honestly, I [...]

How Not To Lose Weight

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

Ugh, I feel like crap.
I’ve been traveling all day. Only airplane food was available. Carb heavy and tasteless as usual. Did you know the airlines are charging for everything now, even water!

Laptop Charger Travel Tip

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

As you may know, I travel about 300 days a year doing hypnosis shows and life coaching seminars. All that time in airports really adds up, and if you’re a road warrior like me you know there’s nothing worse than having your laptop battery (or cellphone or ipod) die in the middle of a long [...]

How to Pack for Your Next Trip Without Checking Any Luggage

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

As I write this, I’m sitting in a hotel near the airport in Atlanta. I wasn’t supposed to be here today but the winter storm that’s raging through the Northeast caused many flight cancellations including mine.
 
I arrived in Atlanta only to find that my connecting flight had been cancelled and that I would have to [...]

Getting Lost in Istanbul

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

As soon as I looked out of my cabin window this morning I knew that this port would finally provide the taste of old Europe that I’d yet to find on this voyage. Mosques and minarets dotted the landscape and bright red flags with the Muslin moon and star snapped briskly in the sea breeze. [...]
