You had me at UNESCO: Why I’m head over heels for heritage cities
UNESCO. Â For those of you who aren’t familiar, the acronym may look like letters for a combination gas station/carwash, a bulk goods grocery store, or some Silicon Valley Tech start up, BUT it stands for the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. Â UNESCO has a mission to promote the protection of natural and cultural sites and that their preservation be a way to educate future generations while bringing awareness to unique places all over the world.

“I’m sick of all this wilderness”: A Day at Glacier National Park
Being a full time traveler has many advantages and for me personally the pros far outweigh the cons, for one I get to skip out of a lot of the mundane chores and tasks.  I’m happy to avoid grocery shopping at all costs since I don’t have a kitchen to stock, and since I don’t have a house, I haven’t cleaned a toilet in god knows how long.  Oh, the extra perks of constant travel. This can all seem pretty glamorous from an outsiders perspective as I’m out exploring the world while others are at their desks working in a cubicle.  But when you wake up sick, you can call out…
