You’d imagine after 75 days of traveling that I’d have a surefire workflow perfected for how to deal with the photos from both my camera(s) and iphone, and how I’d seemlessly share those with Jen to put together a photo post for our trip website.
And you would be entirely wrong. 😆🤷♂️

I updated my map of airports I’ve been to. I’m now over a 100!
Of course, I’ll add another half dozen later in this trip.

Not a bad fortune 🍻
9th century? Nah, this is clearly from an AI image generator. I mean, look at those awkward, unrealistic toes! -S 🇱🇰

Wooo! I’ve logged a beer in 170 different states or countries.
And I’m expecting to add Sri Lanka, Maldives, Singapore, Australia, and French Polynesia to hit the 175 mark this trip. 🍻
I managed to rack up 40 different African beers during our five weeks here. Not too shabby given our 24-day overlanding tour, which limited us to mass bottled lagers in local markets.
During our 24-day overlanding tour through Africa, I “hit” my activity and exercise goals (via Apple Watch) early each morning, simply due to the bumpy African roads. Now? Yeah, not so much…
Not having much wifi and feeling constant pressure to upload pics/posts of our adventure has left me with very little time to stay connected to my social media friends, whom I miss.
Just know I’m thinking about y’all and am looking forward to catching up with your blog posts when I can (thanks RSS!)

Ok, we decided to adopt (yet another) new quest: visit the smallest country on each of the inhabited continents.
Here’s the list:
- Africa: Seychelles
- Asia: Maldives
- Europe: Vatican City
- North America: St Kitts & Nevis
- South America: Suriname
- Oceania: Nauru
We just finished our 24-day overland safari and are officially halfway thru our big trip!

Way to make it super awkward, man…
After yet another very long day, I completely relate to this guy’s choices.
My first safari here in Africa did not disappoint. Many more coming up in the next several weeks…
