Costa Rica, Stranded in Paradise! June / July 2022. What a trip this one was! 4 days in Tamarindo, 4 days in Monteverde and 4 days in Playa Flamingo, amazing! So many activities such as horse riding on the beach, the monkey sanctuary, ATV riding, a visit to the coffee plantation and so much more. You might be wondering why this video is called `Stranded in Paradise` well, that's what happened to us, we showed up at the airport only to find our plane had been cancelled due to some technical issue, so here we are stranded! But, they put us up in a 5 star all inclusive hotel for the night all expenses pain! No that`s my idea of being stranded! Check the book out I wrote abut this whole adventure... `Stranded in Paradise` by Nigel Taylor, available from Amazon in kindle and paperback.

Panama - Our experience in Las Lajas 2021. We stayed here just for one night, basically just to break up the 7-hour bus ride from Coronado to Boquete, we got a great hotel `The Magic Mountain Lodge` run by a great German couple. This was a really nice place that made an ideal stopping point on our journey. Highly recommended if you find yourself this way, and if like my wife, you enjoy bird watching then you`ll love this place!

Panama - Our experience in Coronado 2021. Due to the coronavirus we had to reschedule this trip twice! So was beyond excited about finally getting to go there, Coronado wasn't quite what we had envisioned it to be to be honest, very few people we found spoke any English. Thank God for google translate! Not many places to eat were open at this time, maybe closed for good or not re-opened after the shutdowns, McDonalds and Kfc were open, but that was a last resort. The Picasso bar and restaurant was the life saver here for us! Loved that place and that's where I had my very first beer in Panama, one of many I might add!

Panama - Part 4 - Boca Chica 2021 - So this was a day trip about 2 hour's drive from Boquete, very beautiful, and for the most part deserted islands. Well worth going if you get chance with some of the cleanest waters we have ever seen on our travels. Was also hoping to see some whales on the way, wasn't meant to be though. We did find a bar in the middle of an island! A very welcome sight for sure. Enjoy the videos and photos of Boca Chica.

Panama - Part 3 - Boquete 2021. This time it`s Boquete, that place was the whole idea behind going to Panama in the first place, as we had convinced ourselves this was the place to retire to, more about that in another video, but for now here are a collection of videos and photos of our stay here, I'm pleased to say the locals speak English here too, that's a welcome change. We stayed at the Villa Alejandro which offered the most breathtaking views from the room like no other we have ever seen! We also got to experience the Geisha coffee, the world's most expensive coffee at $10 a cup! It was awful! I even drank my wives cup to see if it really was that bad, it was! Oh well, enjoy the video. Check out the book that goes with this... `10 days in Panama` by Nigel Taylor available from Amazon in kindle and paperback

Panama - Part 5 - Panama City 2021. So here it is, the last video of our trip to Panama that finds us in the capital of Panama City, a very unique city unlike any other in Central America. The infrastructure here definitely shows money has been put into this place, and plenty of it! The hotel Radisson was on the Panama Canal which was incredible to see the ships continuously coming here, definitely one to remember, we loved Panama and its people who were amazing. Highly recommend going if you get chance. Check out the book that goes with this... `10 days in Panama` by Nigel Taylor available from Amazon in kindle and paperback

Las Vegas - Hotels, Shows and Freemont street. So much to see! Our third time. July 4th week. Not the cheapest place, but definitely a place everyone should have on their bucket list! Chances are if you go once, you`ll be back! Something for everyone there, you`ll never be bored that`s for sure. I think our favorite area was Freemont street, very interesting to say the least, full of character and characters! * Slight correction, the fire breathing ant video actually starts at 6 mins 45 seconds, not to be missed!

Pattaya Thailand - Christmas and New Year in Thailand. Amazing place! So, over the years I travelled to Pattaya Thailand 15 times, when I lived in the UK it was a 12 hour direct flight away, but now in the US we`re talking around 30 hours away including various flight changes, so if you can handle that you will be rewarded by this incredible place! There`s so much more than just the nightlife, that`s a big part of the attraction for many, but hopefully this video give you an idea of the many other things there is to see and do around Pattaya, if you get the chance go! Thailand is a very beautiful country with incredibly friendly people, the weather is never cold and the food is delicious and very cheap, hope you enjoy the video! Thanks for watching.

Florida - Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, and the Keys. March 2021. So this was the first trip we could take after the Covid restrictions were lifted, wearing the mask was required at certain places, but not everywhere thankfully. Florida is beautiful and really feels like you could be in another country, especially down in the Keys. Highly recommend going if you haven't already.

Belize, San Pedro. The beauty of Belize. Pure Paradise! For our second trip top Belize we chose `San Pedro` a very beautiful small town offering everything we could wish for, no time to be bored here! We love this place. I surprised my wife with this trip as she didn't know where we were going, it was her birthday the day we arrived, she approved! So, enjoy the video and thanks for watching.

Bangkok Thailand. Things to do and see in Bangkok. Welcome to Bangkok Thailand, one of the hottest cities in the world! Enjoy endless nightlife here, most well known areas are Patpong, Soi Cowboy and Nana Plaza. Much more than nightlife though, Lumpimi Park offers a break from this huge city where you can peacefully relax for a while. Best way to get around is by the river taxis as the roads here are so congested it`s crazy! If you can stand the heat you`ll enjoy it here, hopefully this video will give you a few ideas of what's on offer in Bangkok Thailand.

Jamaica - Runaway Bay, amazing Caribbean country! What a beautiful country Jamaica is! Runaway Bay is the perfect name as you just want to runaway there and never come back! That would be nice for sure. We enjoyed a day at Mystic Mountain taking the cable car up to the top, then bobsleighing! That was fun. The Bob Marley museum which was great, and so much more. Jamaica is great!

Costa Rica - Tamarindo, Paradise! June/July 2018. We had heard so much about Costa Rica, and after all the hype, the expectations were very high! It lived up to it in every way! What a beautiful place! Great friendly people, great food and a landscape like no other place! Definitely one of our favorite places, can`t imagine anyone going here and not loving it, it`s that good, if you haven't been you need to! Trust me, you won`t be disappointed.

Placencia Belize, Honeymoon trip, Beautiful! October 2015. What a perfect location for our honeymoon! We were married the day before and off we went to paradise for a week. Many great memories from this trip, and the fact Belize is the only English speaking country in central and south America made the trip very easy as neither of us can speak Spanish! Very nice people who are very welcoming, highly recommend Belize!

Liquid Nitrogen Margaritas - Dallas Texas, July 2023. Just a short video of something we found on our recent trip to Dallas Texas, liquid nitrogen margaritas! A little different from our usual videos but it was something different so thought we would share it with you all. That`s the joy of travelling, you never know what you might see, weather it`s local or overseas. Oh, by the way, my wife said it was strong, as I only drink beer so wouldn`t know so I'll taker her word for it! LOL

Cancun Mexico 1999. What it looked like then. A blast from the past you might say, this was a really fun trip, first time ever in Mexico and we loved it! Never been back since, but not because I don't want to, it`s just I have been to so many places just never got around to returning. maybe one day I'll go back. The whitest sand I ever saw was here, beautiful place really.

Dublin Ireland, a fascinating city full of charm and history, incredible! I realized after my first pint of Guinness here that I had never really tasted real Guinness before! It is that good! The legendary Irish hospitality is very true and genuine. I would have to say Ireland is our all time favorite place. So many fascinating things to see and do here, Dublin should be on everyone`s bucket list, try it, you won`t be disappointed, trust me on that one!

Goa India, Land of the amazing sunsets. 2021. India is a beautiful country, very friendly people with great food, and is very cheap, you definitely get great value for money there. Kingfisher beer has always been a favorite of mine. We had an amazing little cottage style hotel on Candolim beach offering incredible sunset views right from our very own porch area! Amazing! Goa is a must for any world traveler.

Galway Ireland - We fell in love with this place! Incredible Galway, where people come out of their shops and chat with you, but without trying to get you to buy anything, genuinely friendly people. Nice atmosphere here with street musicians lining the streets showing serious talent! A day trip saw us going to the magnificent Cliffs of Moher, truly spectacular which should be on everyone's bucket list when it comes to travelling. Thanks for viewing this video.

Puerto Vallarta Mexico. June 2023. Pirate night cruise. So much fun! So much fun! So, every night while here we see this prate ship sailing around the bay complete with cannons blasting, fireworks and loud music, basically people having a blast on that ship! We thought it was time we went on it, this is the video from that night, a truly amazing experience, enjoy!

Puerto Vallarta Mexico. June 2023 - We came back again 6 months later! That`s right, we`re back already! What an incredible place! The people are so friendly, the food is incredible, and the weather is amazing! What more could you ask for? Love this place! Many say it`s not as cheap as it used to be, but where is these days? If you haven't been give it a go, you won`t be disappointed, trust me, ok? I`m quite sure we'll be back for a 3rd time sometime soon.

Tijuana Mexico - My stem cell journey. Nov`2022. After suffering with asthma and arthritis for years we heard about a company called `r3 Stem Cell International` they had a location in Tijuana Mexico which we visited for a procedure that thankfully worked! Never looked back since. On this video you`ll see a few photo's of Tijuana the day before the procedure where my wife and I walked over the border to check this place out, then the day after was the procedure itself. You`ll see my official video testimonial too for this company.

Barbados 1988. The cream of the Caribbean! Beautiful place! Barbados will always have a special place in my heart as it was the very first place I ever travelled to, and it was incredible! From the people to the food, and the natural beauty make this place the cream of the Caribbean. Hardly any wonder this is where I got the travel bug from.
