Costa Rica

Can’t sleep because the howler monkeys have decided to nest outside my room, and at first light they start hollering. You have to be very passed out to sleep through it! Keep reading...

British Columbia I

Woke up in our funny Klemtu log cabin in a shared room with beds smaller than a twin, but I slept hard with strange bear dreams. The salmon are going crazy under the dock, flopping and thrashing about, and it seems like the whole population of Klemtu is out fishing. Keep reading...

British Columbia II

The crew is setting up below the platform. Half the crew's boat has overheated, so I don't know if they are going to make it. Tristan is frustrated. He wants to be filming.

Madagascar II

Another amazing experience coming from the land of smiles, sunshine, spiny forests and baobab trees.

I woke up to crashing thuds and grunts on a hot tin roof this morning, and I thought, "Good heavens! How did all those pigs get up there?" Keep reading...

Madagascar III

Rainy season? It is supposed to be rainy season in Madagascar; right now, people on the other side of the planet wish the rains would stop while others somewhere far away are praying for even a droplet … Keep reading...
