A Guide to Skinny Dipping in the South China Sea

This post was originally published on September 2nd, 2013 on Matador Network, after a particularly salacious series of nights in Southeast Asia. The dark ocean is for the wild. Step 1: Choose your beach. I was roughly 200 meters offshore, stark naked in the moonlight, when I realized we’d made a … [Read more...]

Matador Network: You know you’re in Thailand when…

You guys, Thailand is fucking awesome. It's the first country I ever stepped foot in outside of America where I was actually responsible for myself making it out alive. By some accounts, I was successful. And by others, I left a shit ton of myself - blood, sweat, and heart - in the Land of Smiles. … [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...]

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: Bloody and Mary’s February 2013

I have absolutely no memory of my 21st birthday, but I'm told I had a great time cutting the line to the bathroom, justifying the dickery by shouting out, "it's my birthday, mother fuckers!" The Elsewhere Man, ladies and gentlemen. Judge me if you will, the point is... it's my birthday month, mother … [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.
