UFC Training Facility in Las Vegas

I’m the first to admit that cage fighting isn’t for everyone. Some may love it, some may loathe it but pretty much everyone at this point is aware of its existence. Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) organizations like the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) have taken over the lead in violent mainstream entertainment from sports like Boxing […]

Old Quebec City is a Slice of Europe in Canada

While St. Pierre and Miquelon is the only part of France left in North America; Quebec City is far and away the most European city in North America. Quebec City just oozes France around the magical streets of Vieux Quebec or Old Quebec City. Its charming cobblestone streets snake around hilly curves much like Montmartre […]

Ahhhh the Bahamas. I love the name Bahamas, it just sounds like it should be in the Caribbean. It just sounds colorful, tropical, and full of life with amazing beaches.

Top 20 Travel Songs

I love music-everybody loves music. For me, music is best when I associate it with a certain place, time in my life or person. The same goes with travel. Some songs just elicit thoughts of being on the road. Perhaps the song reminds you of a place, a bar, a road trip or someone you […]

Why You Should Get Over Steroids in Professional Sports

What a world we live in with regards to professional sports! The 21st century has brought us some great moments in sports but sadly the dominating theme in many sports has been Steroids or Performance Enhancing Drugs (PED’s). As a sports fanatic, this saddens me greatly. Not because the athletes are cheating. I really don’t […]
