Jane Fonda Was Here started by Gary Arndt
After another 12 hour bus trip, I’ve arrived in Hanoi. It was probably one of the worst bus trips I’ve taken so far. The bus was packed and I got the misfortune of sitting next to a guy who decided to sprawl all over both of the seats.
My cab driver tried to scam me [.

The Seven Wonders of the Philippines started by Gary Arndt
About a month ago I decided to start a series of articles highlighting the places I visit. So I decided to rip off the Seven Wonders theme which the New Seven Wonders group ripped off from Herodotus. (Only steal from the best I say.) I bring you the Seven Wonders of the Philippines.

Onward to Hanoi started by Gary Arndt
It has rained almost non-stop since I’ve been in Hue. Yesterday the rained stopped and I finally got the chance to go visit the Citadel and former grounds of the royal palace. It was sort of anti-climatic given how long I had to wait to go see it. The royal palace isn’t an an

Diving While Traveling started by Gary Arndt
Me diving in Fiji. Note the bald head. I had it (accidentally) shaved in Nadi.


Like bungee jumping, tattoos and photography, SCUBA diving is something I never did prior to the start of my trip. I did my first dive and got my certification in Lahania in Maui.

Daily Travel Photo - Melbourne, Australia started by Gary Arndt
One of the biggest ways in which Australia and North America differ is in the sports they play. Australians are a sports hungry people, but what they play will leave most Americans with a blank stare. Over time I’ve come to understand the basics for rugby (

Off to Hue started by Gary Arndt
I went and visited the My Son Sanctuary today as well as roamed around the Hoi An old city with my camera today. My Son was a bit disappointing. First, it rained which sort of made for difficult conditions taking photos. Second, it was much smaller than I expected. It was the size of a [...]
