Who says we can’t be inspired while lying on a couch! I know I was. I was sitting there before pulling the couch out into a bed, amazed by the kindness and openness of the people we were staying with. We didn’t know them at all. My girlfriend and I had arrived in another country…
I’m pretty sure the name “O” was given precisely due to the reaction of the audience. ooooo. Wow! That’s what I heard over and over as I sat through Cirque Du Soleil’s spectacular production of O. A very good tribute to the beauty of theatre, this Las Vegas only show features immaculate stage design, beautiful…
Okay, I’ll be the first to say that I’m not a big believer in fate or anything like that. I don’t really think we have a set-purpose in life or a time which we are scheduled to die. I am, however, constantly impressed by the timing of various events that just seem so perfect. There…
Home sweet home. Familiarity, family, friends, and my own bed. Yet home is suddenly new. It becomes part of the trip. A distant land. It’s funny how that works.

Today is thursday, June 2nd. This means that tomorrow at 10am, Karla and I will be jumping out of a plane. I can’t say that either of us are nervous right now but I know tomorrow morning is going to be full of those light-stomach butterfly type feelings. Although I’ve jumped out of a plane…

A couple weeks ago, I was still thinking of a way to turn the World Domination Summit into an epic adventure in which I could document the entire journey for my readers to enjoy. Then it hit me, I could do a road trip! Calgary, Alberta (my current home) isn’t actually that far from Portland, Oregon,…
I’ve always wanted to create something fun. A big adventure that makes people happy and excited. Something that creates some excitement and a following of awesome people. 21 days from now, I have a chance to do that. I am going to Portland, Oregon for Chris Guillebeau’s World Domination Summit. This is an amazing blogging…
Back in September 2010, I enrolled myself in Unique Genius, a course aimed at helping people find their passions, build them into a business, and make money doing what they love. Before I enrolled, I actually met the founder, Aaron Ross, while traveling to Los Angeles for a JCI (Junior Chamber International) conference. Aaron lives in…
