Road trip day 15: The Grand Canyon is actually cool

Honest to God I thought the Grand Canyon was going to be a tourist trap that wasn’t that cool. I couldn’t have been more wrong about that. In my head, anything that a ton of people go to can’t be the best of the best. For Buffalo, Duffs and Anchor Bar are good but are […]

Road trip day 14: I am getting beat up by a grill

Yes, that headline is correct; I am getting beat up physically and emotionally by a grill. During my cross-country expedition, I brought along with me a little grill so I could eat and also make some grilling content (you win this round Donny). Little did I know, it would be easier for me to do […]

Road trip day 13: Sequoia is a must-visit

Folks, we are officially headed toward the East Coast, and our first stop on our expedition back was Sequoia National Park. All I really knew ahead of time was the massive sequoia trees the park got its name for, other than that I knew nothing. I certainly didn’t know about the stunning (and kind of […]

Road trip day 12: A date at the co-ed hammam?

About a year ago, I was studying abroad in Cyrpus and matched with this girl on Tinder. She had a list of things she wanted to do while traveling there, including going to a hammam. I went to one a year prior in Istanbul, so I thought this would be a great cultural experience for […]

Road trip day 11: Is In-N-Out overrated?

As a man who has lived his whole life on the East Coast, there has always been some sort of mysticism and legend about the fast-food burger joint In-N-Out. My views on the incredible Culver’s burgers (and cheese curds) has been well documented, so I only thought it was right to try another regional burger […]

DING DONG the Witch of Baseball is DEAD, Angel Hernandez Retires

Every so often, something happens that you didn’t expect to happen that just makes so much sense. Like when companies realized their staff could work from home during COVID, or when any KFC combines with a Taco Bell or Pizza Hut. However, this news during Memorial Day weekend surprised even my wackadoo brain. As we […]

Road trip day 10: How to win at Portland karaoke

For those of you lucky enough to hear my lovely, soothing, and calming voice, you would be shocked to learn that I am in fact not a good singer. My second night in Portland saw my friend Cora and I go to a karaoke bar, something that is normally a bit out of my element. […]

Road trip day 9: From Medina to Portland

Alrighty folks, after around 3,000 miles and 46 hours on the road, we have made it to the West Coast, and Portland. This is special for a multitude of reasons, firstly, I have finally reached the west, and secondly, I am here visiting one my my closest friends from back home, Cora. Looking at those […]

Road trip day 8: 5 keys for car camping

One of my biggest question marks going into my cross-country road trip was how I was going to fair sleeping in my car. To save money (and for the experience) whenever I am not staying with a friend, I sleep in my car at whatever location I am at. Up until this point, I stayed […]
