February 2012 - The Crazy Things That Happen When You Travel

i love to travel. the two stamp-filled double decker passports in the last 10 years are only the beginning when it comes to proving my passion for it. the places i see, the people i meet, and the food i eat all contribute to the travel experience. but it's the crazy thing that happens when you travel that truly sets that exact spot in the world apart from anywhere else. the craziness of that moment leaves an unforgettable mark in your memory. 

so what crazy things have happened to me on my worldwide adventures? honestly, too many to tell. but this month, i'll highlight 29 of them. These may not be the funniest or craziest, but they are the first that come to mind and that's a good enough filter for me. they are listed here, not in any particular order. 

- the Balinese proposal
- robbed in Barcelona
- last minute Barca futbol
- little boy's awakening in Buenos Aires
- stuck in a porteno thunderstorm in Buenos Aires
- crooning up Dead Woman's Pass to Machu Picchu
