Favorite Destinations

  • Koh Tao, Thailand – I’m a big scuba diver and got to see whale sharks here!
  • Bali, Indonesia – I lived here for just over three years. The beaches on the East Coast (Candidasa, etc) are hard to beat, as well as the Nusa and Gili islands.
  • Lisbon, Portugal – where I currently call home after 7+ trips here. The best beaches close to me are across the bridge like Costa da Caparica.
