It’s all adventure in the Negev Desert, but leave it to us to find a little bit of luxury even in the most undeveloped area of Israel. From rappelling down 1000 foot cliffs to mountain biking on old camel caravan trails, I knew the Negev was going to push me to my thrill seeker limits. […]
5 French Bucket List Adventures
With a new home in the southwest of France for the next year or so, Exodus Travels asked me which French bucket list adventures I’d love to check off my list. Eternal planner that I am (when it comes to all things travel, anyway), I already have a list of my must-dos while I call […]
Winter Adventures in Whitefish, Montana
When I’d tell just about anyone where my next trip was, they’d give me the once over to make sure I hadn’t fallen off my rocker while exclaiming: “Why would you go to Montana in winter?!” Did they know something I didn’t? It wasn’t like I was declaring I was trekking solo across the frozen […]

E-biking Around Costa Brava’s Medieval Villages
I loved biking as a kid. We lived out in the country and you were far more likely to see a horse galloping down our dirt road than another car. I’d ride my mint green 10-speed for miles. Today, I hoped the old saying “it’s like riding a bike” was true because I would be […]
