The Backpacker’s Budget Guide to Morocco

The Backpacker’s Budget Guide to Morocco

I hadn't really planned on going to Morocco. But I couldn't stay in Europe the entire summer on my basic visa, and I wanted to cross Africa off my list anyway, so after Barcelona I booked a 36-hour-long ferry to Tangier - which in itself is a whole 'nother ordeal that you should never put yourself … [Read more...]

The Backpacker’s Budget Guide to Vietnam

I lived in Vietnam for three months and spent roughly $500 there. God damn, I love Vietnam. It may be the cheapest country on Earth. I’m of course discounting the countries with the kind of currency that devalues itself by the time the cashier hands you your change, but those will get their own … [Read more...]

Out in the World: Back like a Rib Rack October 2013

Excuse the horrible title pun. It's trying to distract you from how late this Events calendar is this month. And yes, that last sentence nullifies all the others. I don't care. I have an astronaut's jetlag right now, and it's only fair that you share my pain. I spent the last month of my life … [Read more...]

Out in the World: Broke Like a Joke September 2013

Happy September! We’re not quite there yet, but if you’re traveling, chances are you’re looking for things to do in the near future. If not, I like your style. Fly by the seat of your pants. Or maybe you’re just lazy. Either works. So welcome to the second edition of my Out in the World event … [Read more...]

Out in the World: The Best of the Fest August 2013

Welcome to the maiden voyage of Out in the World, a new Elsewhere Man section featuring some of the best events happening around the world each month.  I’d say that I hope it goes swimmingly, but that word could technically describe the maiden voyage of the Titanic. I’ll just let it speak for … [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.
