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: 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: 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.
