Come Fly With Me

Korea is one crazy place. Where else can you find insane, clown dictators and Gangnam Style only about an hour away from each other?   Our mission was to explore one of the famous invasion tunnels there, but we somehow landed in the DMZ… gift shop. Join us in Neverland, for a trip down a real commie rabbit hole.  

Mes Amis – My friends We’re off to Paris where I get into a bit of difficulté.  I’m young. I’m stupid. And I manage to get myself stuck inside a cemetery. With literally a million others. But they’re dead. What’s my excuse?

We’re on the road to Rajasthan! It's India – land of mystics, mobs and tikka masala. Just one problem: our bags didn’t make it. They’re somewhere in London… along with our camera batteries. And of course, my underwear. Yep, you guessed it - this is a travel/underwear story! 

During the course of our journey through the royal Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan we recorded the likes of Petra, the Gulf of Aqaba and the Wadi Rum. We saw ancient Roman cities and citadels. But nothing confounded us as much as the ancient riddle, “What’s a souk?”

This is a story about disaster in Peru.  But also recovery, adventure and thanks. We were just happy to make it out of that place alive. So of course we celebrated by eating. A big, festive meal, straight from the earth. Happy Thanksgiving!

Edinburgh for the holidays is kinda special. Beautiful, cold, dark and twinkly. With a just touch of the looney. We got there after a crazy flight. It was all castles, caverns and peaty drams in festive pubs. Join us down these merry lanes.   Season’s greetings and a Happy New Year!   Now here's a wee tale for ya. 

The guys and I are on a video shoot in Florence, Italy. We're covering a chef's table so we're eating our way through course after succulent course. They're in heaven but I caught some travel bug and am about to lose my antipasto... all over the Ponte Vecchio.   Can I make it through the shoot or will I collapse upon the marble throne in my Florence Hotel bathroom?

Amidst the giant sand dunes in Huacachina Peru, I find myself cajoling the Peruvian president to take a dune buggy ride. But he has a bum leg and wants to sit this one out. Only problem: he’s the star of this show. No president. No show. So it’s my job to hopefully get him up on his feet and then seated down in the dune buggy. They didn’t teach us any of this stuff in film school.

Aruba is "One Happy Island", and we had explored it all on 4 wheelers, Harleys, Heli's and speedboats. We found a raucous party scene there but also ancient cave drawings and a magnificent coastline. Still, after a week of non-stop activity, nothing prepared us for the sudden upheaval of being thrown into a desperate situation. 

You ever get so frustrated you surprise yourself with an outburst of anger? You ever get so angry you surprise yourself with an outburst of frustration? You may have... But I did, on the way home from Barbados... at Miami International Airport. It was cathartic for me. Though it did piss off a few hundred people. Guess if wasn't as cathartic for them...
