    Tuesday’s Travel Rant: Walking escalator things

    I’m not sure about the name of these things, but you know what I mean right? The conveyer belt things you find in airports and malls,   where you walk on them and they move in the same direction thereby taking you to your destination even f...

    Tuesday’s Travel Rant: Ordering Food

    I don’t speak your language, and for that I’m sorry, and I do appreciate that you’re trying to speak to me in English. The menu looks good, I’m absolutely starving, I’m going to order exactly what I’ve been craving and it’s going to be amaz...

    How to spend 3 days in Cairo

    The Top 5 Places to Visit in Cairo

    The Top 5 Places to Visit in Cairo I spend a lot of time in Cairo these days. It’s my hop-off spot for the tours that I run to Socotra, Yemen so I know the city pretty well these days. If you want to know how to spend 1, 2 or 3 days in...

    Tuk tuk in Thailand

    Tuesday’s Travel Rant: Tuk Tuk Drivers

    Getting from A to B shouldn’t be so difficult, nor should it cost double the real fare. Furthermore, if I want a tuk-tuk (which is unlikely), I’ll search for one. There are few things more infuriating in the world than getting harassed by d...

    The only people for me are the mad ones

    MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY: It’s All About The People

    Sorry for being a couple of days late with this – I was stuck on Koh Chang (a beautiful Thai island) for a couple of days longer than expected, I had a great time with some cool people and it sparked an idea about the people in our lives. I...

    TUESDAY’S TRAVEL RANT: The same old sales pitch

    You can try to get off the beaten track all you want but it’s inevitable that eventually you’ll end up in yet another bloody tourist market, selling the same wooden frogs, the same fake football shirts and of course the same ubiquitous tail...

    Travel Rant Number 4: Immigration Queues

    Ok, I’ve started to rant a bit over the last month, so i thought I’d give it an actual section on my blog! That way I don’t seem like a grumpy, perpetually p*ssed off backpacker (right?!). It’s called ‘Tuesday...

    Thanks for deciding to subscribe to my blog, it means a lot to me that people trust a normal guy from Ireland.

    You should be proud you're taking a new step to changing your life!

    bloggingbroughtmehere_3debook-coverAs you know, blogging changed my life. I left Ireland broke, with no plan, with just a one-way ticket to Thailand and no money. Since then, I started a blog, then a digital media company, I've made more than $1,500,000 USD, bought 4 properties and visited (almost) every country in the world. And I did it all from my laptop as I travel the world and live my dream. I talk about how I did it, and how you can do it too, in my COMPLETELY FREE Ebook, all 20,000 words or so. Just finish the process by putting in your email below and I'll mail it right out to you immediately. No spam ever too, I promise!

    Take ownership. Take action, and remember

    "If you don't build your dream, someone will hire you to help build theirs"
