Leaving for Bogota tomorrow! Stephanie and I will be living there for about 3 weeks. If you’re in Bogota for the month of October, we’d love to meet up with you! My backpack is going to have quite a bit more in its bag due to all the equipment. After Bogota, we’re not quite sure where we are heading. South?

Going on with more big news, you’ll find me on the Taking Care of Business panel at BlogWorld Expo. I’ve worked hard for an opportunity like this and I’m so glad it’s paying off. I’ll be there November 3rd till the 5th. Contact me via Twitter if you’re going to be there and would like to meet-up.

We went to Charleston, South Carolina this month which was surprisingly a really great city.

    Have a great time in Bogota Michael. If you get the chance head to Medallin as well as we had a great time there a few years back.  Oh and El Valle if you want a good surf!
