I had the opportunity to have lunch with this view of St. Lucia’s iconic Les Pitons recently during my first work-related trip for 2019. I stopped here at the Beacon Restaurant while making my way down south towards the airport. The lunch was nothing to write home about to be...
I must say, I wasn’t expecting much of Athens. I had heard from several persons/sources that Athens is disappointing; that we should just pass through and allot more days to the islands or wherever else we wanted to go. So, I didn’t have many expectations. I’m happy to say that...
How We Got To Split We decided to make a road trip of it. We rented a car in Dubrovnik, and took the coastal route from up along the “Adratic Riviera” to Split. Since we were not in a rush, we took the scenic route rather than the highway. I saw reviews warning...

I was invited to apply for a sponsored internship to attend an environmental planning workshop hosted by Nauru Ocean Minerals Inc (NORI). The original venue was Ghent, Belgium, however it was changed to London following the...
Day 4 – Cheetah Conservation Fund and Etosha National Park The first stop of the day was the Cheetah Conservation Fund in Otjiwarango. We got there in time to experience a cheetah run (before the sun got too hot and they would prefer to chill out than run). I’ll just have...
Day 1- Arrival in Windhoek, Namibia and Gocheganas Lodge The government of Namibia invited World and Olympic sprint champion Ambassador Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce and her husband, Jason, for an official visit to their nation.
