For the past week we've stayed in a rented apartment in the East Paris neighborhood of Ménilmontant. This neighborhood is in the outlying 20th arrondissement, far beyond where most tourists venture, so we're getting a local feel for life in the city. It's a wonderful and diverse neighborhood, though a bit of a trek to get to the typical tourist destinations -- which is why it took us a few days ...
Why Ecotourism is More Important than Ever
Over the last few years, I’ve traveled to several places with emerging economies. These experiences have taught me a lot about the challenges faced by people trying to get by under difficult circumstances. Two such experiences, though, really stand out in my mind. While driving a windy mountain road in Guatemala, we zoomed past a man in the middle of the road who was holding out a gorgeous ...
Greetings From London
We've been in London for the past few days, but we've had terrible luck finding Internet so far that we can use without having a Euro/UK mobile phone. The connection in our lobby is so slow, I keep losing it. Fingers crossed that this will post! Here are some of the photos of London that we've been posting to Instagram. If you use it, follow me there to see even more: www.instagram.com/caskifer ...

The one thing I did know about Paris was that I was supposed to visit the Musée du ...
Produce Vendor in Cartagena, Colombia
You all know I love markets and street vendors. They are my favorite places and people to photograph. Bonus points to ones like this guy in the Old Town area of Cartagena, Colombia who was selling passion fruit. They were gorgeous and perfectly wrinkly, which means they are ripe, and the biggest I've ever seen, nearly the size of a softball. Foto Friday is a series where I go back through ...
Photozini Review: Turn Your Photos Into A Magazine
If you are anything like me, you have loads of digital photographs buried deep within folders on your computer’s hard drive or stored somewhere on your phone. Many of which, your friends and family will never see, and -- admit it -- many of which you will not even look at again. If you take as many photos as I do, that black hole includes tens of thousands of images and several gigabytes worth of ...
