The 10 Best Places in the World to Celebrate Halloween

You guys, it's finally Halloween season! This is hands down my favorite holiday. You can celebrate it literally anywhere and anyhow you want. If you want to get together with family and remember those you've lost recently, do it. If you want to stay in with a shit-your-pants scary movie, a bottle of … [Read more...]

What’s it’s like to eat the Spiciest Pepper in Existence?

What’s it’s like to eat the Spiciest Pepper in Existence?

When I was a kid, my dad would screw with me by popping habanero after habanero into his mouth without so much as a grimace. He’d explain that, when he was my age, he’d eaten so much hot sauce that his taste buds had been burned clean off. It scared me away from spicy foods for my entire childhood, … [Read more...]

The Backpacker’s Budget Guide to the United Kingdom

The term Ugly American has been around for a while to describe shitty tourists, but that's really not a fair moniker. Americans aren't the worst of the lot - not by a longshot. That honor goes to the United Kingdom, and has for the better half of a millenium. If those #ladsontour aren't puking on a … [Read more...]

Elsewhere Plans: Festival Calendar October 2015

The spookiest month of the year is also one of the lightest. Everybody's in their homes, planning their Halloween costumes. And by planning, I of course mean that they're looking at pictures of everybody's else's costumes on Pinterest while imagining that they will have just as great of a costume. … [Read more...]

Elsewhere Plans: Festival Calendar September 2015

Since most festivals happen once a year, I have a pretty easy time putting these things together. I just consult the previous year's events, get the new dates, throw in any new ones, and badabing badaboom, check dat SEO. But going through last year's festivals for September was a little like Thor … [Read more...]

The Elsewhere Man Himself

This handsome devil's coming to a city near you.

My name's Colin. A few years ago, I decided to combine my love of travel, telling stories, and getting into mischief into one endeavor. If it's a weird festival or even weirder food, you'll find me on my way to try it. Five continents and a few stomach-turning pitstops later, I've got it down pretty well. Learn more about my adventures here, if you dare.
