The Top 10 European Summer Festivals to Visit Before You Die

It starts in April. When the temperatures rise and the feet get restless, the music festival season gets underway.

As long as there's a beautiful location, and an attractive … [Read more...]

Go Overseas: 10 global music festivals to visit on your gap year

Go Overseas: 10 global music festivals to visit on your gap year

Gonna give myself props here real quick - I've been promoted at Go Overseas to Senior Contributing Editor. I'll be the resident expert in Gap Year travel, because I think they finally realized that since I've never actually studied abroad, I can't really write about it accurately. I'm a hell of a … [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...]

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.
