Polo's Bastards Top 10 Worst Destinations
With the current conflict going on between Ethiopia and Somalia, my mind immediately began to wonder what the writers at Polo's Bastards had been up to and what dangerous lands they've been exploring. Last time I checked in they'd just posted a piece on Rio's favelas. Since ...Spirit Airlines to Offer Flights to Port-au-Prince
In today's competitive airline industry carriers have to think outside of the box, be sharper than a razor's edge and fly to destinations where many dare not to go. As of recent, the low-cost carrier, Spirit Airlines, has filed an application with the federal government to ...Word for the Travel Wise (12/07/06)
Now here is a word you can surely get away with doing some sign language to get your point across if needed, but things would probably go so much smoother if you knew it off the top of your head. It could save you the extra dizziness you could be experiencing from your achy ...Word for the Travel Wise (10/13/06)
Boo! Yup, it is Friday the 13th folks and I'm sure you've all been shaking in your boots and paying extra attention to the cracks in the sidewalk on this semi-special day. Seen any black cats? Perhaps you're on your way to the theater to soak in all the ghoulish, chop-chop, ...Word for the Travel Wise (07/26/06)
I don't know what's up with the weather these days, but it is hot as Hades these days and quite frankly it has me longing to escape. Right about now I'd give anything to be lounging on the shores of a shady palm-fringed tropical island. It doesn't matter where so long as the ...Word for the Travel Wise (05/06/06)

My frequent flyer mileage is just to the point of letting me have another partially free vaca out on some sunny Caribbean beach, but which one and when? I won't be making any decisions today, ...Word for the Travel Wise (03/07/06)
It seems I'm doomed. Shaking all these Soca lyrics from my brain is going to be a tough task to tackle even when I return home. I've been known to get a song or two stuck in my head for days and nights. The worst one ran for a 15 day period where I would either hum or burst ...Word for the Travel Wise (01/29/06)
With all the hoo-rah in the media about Oprah feeling "duped" by author James Frey of A Million Little Pieces I started thinking of other books in her prized Book Club. There was one novel I had read a while back, Breath, Eyes, Memory by Edwidge Danticat which aided in ...Jolie & Pitt in Haiti
It was only yesterday I stood in a convenient store griping about tabloids and those who obsess about the lives of stars, especially Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. The multiple headlines regarding Jen, Brad, Angelina, their parents, the adopted children, and the other blah ...A Place to Stay In Haiti
Haiti, for some reason rarely comes to mind when trying to find a new destination to explore. That's just me however. A friend of mine who isn't Haitian has been twice and wants to go back. So there must be other's like him and if so I'm sure they'd be happy to learn of some ...
