Vancouver, Canada—Lieutenant Dan’s Smoke Lounge
The Rambler heads to the Couv and winds up in a smoke lounge, where due to seating scarcity is forced to sit with...umm the vagabond crowd? The Lieutenant Dan’s of the world, if you will. Covertly, the Rambler tries to snag a photo. Hopefully no one thinks he's a narc, because 'snitches get...

Fort McMurray, Canada— It’s a ‘Dry’ Cold
The Rambler heads to the frigid northeast of Alberta, Canada in the middle of the Athabasca oil sands in the deep of winter. A new sub-thermal winter coat is purchased prior to the trip, and its only supposed to get below -30°F but don't worry, because...it's a "dry" cold. Whatever that means.…

Tallinn, Estonia— Medieval Meat
The Rambler heads to Estonia rather ill-prepared for the frigid temps. Red and ripe ear lobes await. Tallinn is thoroughly enjoyed as he writes by candle light, visits a Medieval themed restaurant and has more red and game meat coursing through his veins than he's had all year. Subsequently, the...
-
Amsterdam, Netherlands—The Highway & Gas Station Hotel
The Rambler heads to "Hamsterdam" right next to Gerbilville, and whinges about his hotel which is across from a lovely gas station and directly adjacent to a major highway. The city itself is thoroughly enjoyed as is the strong cannabis and the true-true sense of freedom the Netherlands offers....
-
Onslow, Australia— Oil Clad Fatigues & Mustachioed Me
The Rambler heads to the proper Outback and fears the rough and tough oil rig crews will make him as the "weak Yank City boy" he truly is. A handlebar mustache could rectify this issue...or they now think he's a "Leather Daddy"? Optics ain't great on either. Will he make it through Onslow…

Dili, Timor-Leste—Dili Dallying in Dili
The Rambler heads to TImor-Leste also known as East Timor and may regret having scheduled an extra day there. Crime rate is particularly high for a city of its size, as is unemployment as well as poverty, which tend to go hand-in-hand-in-hand. There are some travel websites that warn of the,...

Johor Bahru, Malaysia— Hemorrhoidal Hell

Tel Aviv, Israel— An Oasis in a Desert of Hate
The Rambler heads to the birthplace of dear sweet baby Jesus. However, because of the amount of Middle East travel he's done, and the hostile attitude of the countries surrounding Israel, the Rambler must use his second passport to get into the country. Once there, oh boy! Joyous times are had by...
-
Bhopal, India—The Heart of India
The Rambler heads to the geographic center of India and wait...could it be...yes! Finally meets and befriends his Guru. He also plays cricket with a dozen Indian tweens in an abandoned parking garage, but enlightenment and sage wisdom await. Tune in! Buy the book, "Life in the Layover" now!...
-
New Delhi, India— In Search of Prabu
The Rambler is heading to India and like most consultants is in the market for a Guru. Pshhh, I know how stereotypical of him. Dime a dozen a plot out here in Bollywood. The "Delhi belly" is quick to set in as he searches high and low for enlightenment, while trying to avoid the heat, smog, and...
-
Port of Spain, Trinidad & Tobago—The Big Trinidaddy
The Rambler is heading to Trinidad where he performs some impromptu hotel room cyst drainage, enjoys one too many Carib beers by his lonesome, partakes in a delicious local meal, and in his spare time parks his pasty, alabaster ass next to the Hilton pool to 'lime' around. You'll see... Buy the...
-
Buenos Aires, Argentina— The Malbec & Asado Binge
The Rambler heads from Germany to Buenos Aires, Argentina. He's definitely NOT escaping war crimes, and has some Spanish communication issues, credit card fumbles, and enjoys a glorious steak dinner by his lonesome at one of the finest "parrilla's" in the country. Felt like an absolute King...
-
Hamburg, Germany— The Hamburg Horror Show
The Rambler heads to Hamburg and regrettably attends a German-speaking only Dungeon show. It was NOT sexual...it was historical. Nevertheless, it was one of the most uncomfortable, and terrifying experiences he'd ever endure and begins to take on a whole, “acid trip with no context” kind of vibe....
-
Berlin, Germany— Walls & Wúrst
