Couples Travel–There's nothing quite like exploring the world with your significant other, though it has its challenges.
My Laptop Lifestyle
For as long as I can remember I have always loved to travel. When I was in Elementry School I lived with my brother who is two years younger than me and my mother. My father worked for Continental Airlines and was always traveling with my stepmother. He had a habit of bringing me home weird-looking money from different countries and islands. Looking at his cool scuba diving pictures and hearing stories about how he learned to hula dance in Hawaii made me dream of traveling when I got older. My Dad finally retired and bought himself a boat to live on which made me start thinking if he can fulfill his dream at the age of 74 there is no reason why I cannot at the age of 49.

Perchance to Dream
Running to the beach with tears streaming down her eyes was not the way Sasha thought she’d be spending this evening. It was supposed to be a surprise romantic reunion with her boyfriend of two years, Eric. Oh how she missed him so for these past weeks while he was in another state from her to train for his new position in the hospitality industry. She was so proud of him when he told her of this great opportunity he had to advance his career. Little did she know he also wanted to advance his relationship with the new girl at work and this solo adventure without his girlfriend was the perfect time to do just that. Romantically but cluelessly on her part she came out to surprise him on his weekend off but she was the one surprised after all. Turns out his great new coworker who was so helpful showing him the ropes of his new position taught him a few new positions.

A glass of Merlot and a sailing challenge
It all began with an invitation to do a road trip along the east coast of the United States. When we finally met in person we didn’t expect our existing work friendship to spark an automatic connection. He poured me a glass of Obscura Merlot while we talked about life and then... the challenge had begun. He suggested getting on the road in search of the perfect sailboat to purchase and sail along the East coast of the United States

Serenity
There is a calm sense of serenity even amidst endless chaos. Staring directly into the eye of the storm, arms spread wide like an eagle ready to soar, not to be blown away. For to survive in this world you must embrace the chaos or else be entirely consumed.

Tacos in Tulum
Recently my wife and I ventured to Tulum, Mexico to celebrate my retirement from the United States Navy after 24 years of service as a Deep Sea Diver. With CoViD restrictions lifting and the pandemic seemingly in retreat we also have missed our routine of traveling annually with the lock-downs and strict orders from the Navy not to travel further than 300 miles radius from my command; this was also a trip to stretch our worldly legs again, and rid ourselves of some cabin-fever. Returning to the United States does still require some CoViD testing procedures that can induce stress into what is supposed to be a time for relaxation and no worries; However, that's for a different story all together.

Getting evicted in the Wild, Wild West that is the Mexican Jungle
My partner and I believe in community. To us, it's the most intelligent and compassionate way forward and it's our intention to get a headstart on creating what we believe everyone will eventually be looking for soon - a village, a family, a sanctuary. We arrived at our AirBNB in Puerto Morelos, Mexico and we said, "This could be it!" My partner saying that explicitly, and me saying it quietly to myself. We were wrong, and we were right.

My First Date With My Lovely Girlfriend
Relationships are very complicated, but worthwhile. Long distance relationships are even more complicated, but probably are becoming much more common as people spend more time meeting others online. I happen to be in a very long distance relationship, and I spend a lot of time thinking about how things will go when we finally meet in person. This story is a work of fiction, but only for now hopefully.

The Event
The Event By: Meko Kaprelian He found himself walking La Rambla, the bustle of people and the foreign sounds that bounced off his ears gave him the sense of being small in a large place, but the tree-lined cobblestone boulevard, open only to foot traffic, left him romantically comfortable; all at the same time. It was early July in Barcelona; the warm sunny weather had the streets full of activities and tourists, that stimulated the senses. As he walked the Gothic-inspired city that’s nestled between the majestic Collserola mountains and the sapphire blue waters of the Mediterranean, he felt reassured that the location for “The Event” he had been planning for months couldn’t be more perfect. James on break from his duties as an inspector for a company contracted by the US government to build housing for the military in Djibouti, Africa, arrived in Spain a full day ahead of her, to meet with the planner he’d been working with online to finalize the preparations for “The Event”; following the GPS map on his phone he made his way to the meeting location.
