The Backpacker’s Budget Guide to New Zealand

The Backpacker’s Budget Guide to New Zealand

People love to conflate New Zealand and Australia. I mean, I get it, NZ is basically the Canada to Australia's America. You've got a climatically rich and large country full of inland country bumpkins and coastal beautiful people with the personality of a spoon, right next to an alpine country … [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: May Flowers 2014

April 17, 2014 by Colin 1 Comment

I'm gonna try to be positive here. There are so many awesome festivals to go to this month. A nice mix of cultural festivals to really make you feel like you've delved into a new part of the world, and a spattering of music festivals to keep your sense of karma and health chemically castrated. But I … [Read more...]

Out in the World: Coachella and Friends April 2014

Sorry guys, I missed the March installment of Out in the World. But there's a few good reasons for that! Most of the big events have to do with Mardi Gras and Carnival, which were covered in the February edition of the calendar. The others were all pretty well known - Soundwave and Future in … [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.
