About this blog

Americans are among the tops in overworked people in the Western world, while at the same time receiving little in the way of vacation time and, due to the geography (both physical and political) of North America, generally isolated culturally. With my travel descriptions, advice and inevitable mishaps, I hope to inspire my fellow Americans to get off their butts and go see the world!
