The Traveler Diet

February 18, 2021 by Jason B.

I got weighed for the first time a few days ago when they fitted my harness to go bunjee jumping. I already knew i lost some weight as evidenced by moving down three belt sizes but i did not know how much. It turns out I have lost over 15 pounds in my 6 weeks of travel. I am skinny again! How did this happen you may ask. I walk for hours most days, eat my first meal at 3 or … [Read more...] about The Traveler Diet

Peru: The Machu Pichu, Bungee Jumping, & The Inti Raymi Festival

June 27, 2019 by Jason B.

I started my week in Peru flying from Bogota to Lima at 5 am. But before i flew to Lima I heard about the Inti Raymi festival, the biggest celebration in Cusco. Despite an expensive domestic flight to Cusco, being able to participate in the festival and a chance to visit the Machu Pichu made the decision worth it. I slept most of the day and woke up just in time to see a little … [Read more...] about Peru: The Machu Pichu, Bungee Jumping, & The Inti Raymi Festival
