New York in Winter is a magical place, according to New Yorkers

New York in Winter is a magical place, according to New Yorkers

Now that I live in New York, and the holiday season has well and truly begun (I mean, not by my standards, but there are already decorations and skating rinks going up on every block, like what?), I thought it'd be appropriate to repost an older article. This was originally from November 2nd, … [Read more...]

The Backpacker’s Budget Guide to America

The Backpacker’s Budget Guide to America

You know how many people will openly admit they don't like Americans? More than a few. We're loud. We're boisterous. Our food has roughly the same caloric content as beluga whale milk and our health care system is patently designed to offend as many people as possible. Everybody can find something … [Read more...]

Elsewhere Plans: Once More, With Feeling August 2014

One thing I learned entering the second year of Elsewhere Plans: it's gonna be a hell of a lot easier this year. Turns out, a lot of things worth going to are worth going to twice. Who know? I'll be updating as necessary, but much of the information is a foundation on which to build a solid Animal … [Read more...]

Elsewhere Plans: If you say you’re not having fun, July’in’.

This is a very special edition of Elsewhere Plans, because it marks the one year anniversary of the beginning of the feature. Man. 12 whole editions. Of course, I missed a month once, but let's go ahead and say it operates under the "13th floor of a hotel" principle. Just ignore it. I'm gonna do … [Read more...]

Elsewhere Plans: Boom in June 2014

And thus we enter the first real month of Summer for the northern hemisphere. Otherwise known as the hemisphere where shit actually goes down. With love to those crazy Southies, of course, and I'll take that back when New Zealand and Uruguay start pumping festivals out their wazoos, but the North … [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.
