Experiencing the Magic of Change

November 4, 2023 Jessica

Let me tell you about our recent adventure to the marvelous Moab, Utah – a place that holds a special spot in my heart. We embarked on our road trip, craving the beauty of nature and ready to enrich our knowledge with a wilderness first aid course. (something I believe every human should take) To make our journey even more breathtaking, we chose to take the scenic route through Capitol Reef National Park. The sights along the way were absolutely awe-inspiring. And,…

Westwater Shenanigans 2018 (Happy Birthday Sky)

September 16, 2018 Jessica

The first time I ran Westwater, I was taken aback by its beauty. The narrow, massive black and red rock walls encompassing you. The feeling of being completely isolated in nature. The history shining through that black rock fondly referred to by a fellow guide as the rock that is “older than sex.” Gneiss is a high-grade metamorhphic rock which belongs to the precambrian age. Exposure of this rock is limited, with only a few places exisiting in the Four…

Just over a year ago, I started my Taco Life. My Dad and I endeavored in a project that has changed the way I live and travel.

Between the Taco, Ocoee and myself, we have seen a lot of miles and landscapes this year. It has been mostly wonderful, but there were…

Bohom Travels: New Years In Thailand

March 29, 2018 Jessica

Standing in the ocean bay, looking up at the lanterns dissipating in the star-lit sky, I felt the water lap against my legs. I felt the sea breeze kiss my skin, the sounds of the excited crowd around me lull me into bliss. I felt a change that night, a shift from within and without. As the year changed over, so did I. When I first made plans for going abroad, they were quite different from what actually occurred. I…

Bohom Travels: Layover in Malaysia

March 18, 2018 Jessica

What would you do on a ten-hour layover? It seemed that the popular thing in Kuala Lumpur was to check out the Petronas Towers. Yet, while they do look to be architecturally impressive, city viewing is not necessarily my idea of fun. Then I found a picture of the Batu Caves… and a half day tour that also included hiking with waterfalls. Why, hello there beautiful. Flying in from New Delhi, we were extremely tired and somewhat overdressed. Our climates…

Bohom Travels: Christmas In New Delhi

March 6, 2018 Jessica

What do you want for Christmas? How can you spread Holiday cheer? Nah. What do I want to do on Christmas to help spread stoke on life? That is how I approached the holiday this year. Spending a day and a half in New Delhi is not my idea of fun, but it was necessary to be there for our flight out of India. So how did we spend our Christmas Eve & Day in a foreign city? Christmas Eve We…

Bohom Travels: A Day In Agra

February 26, 2018 Jessica

The Taj Mahal has been called a teardrop on the face of the Earth, and it is fairly easy to understand why. Looking upon its massive and elegant structure leaves no room for doubt that it is anything but extraordinary. The Run Down Dylan and I arrived in Agra with a bit of a struggle.. taking a car from Jaipur had been comfy and safe, if not informative and conversational. When we arrived in Agra, the driver had issues…

Bohom Travels: Rishikesh Ramblin’ {& Video}

February 4, 2018 Jessica

India was an endeavor. Please excuse my tired ramblings in the video, over two days of international travel can do that to a person… It is funny where life can lead you, the many paths, windows, and doors you may come across… I never thought of Germany as one of my first choices as for a place to go, yet when the opportunity to live there became a reality I found myself in Munich. And grew exponentially because of it….

Best Things I Brought & Bought Abroad {Packing Tips}

January 24, 2018 Jessica

When it comes to traveling, I think there is one part in particular that stresses us out more than most. Packing. Especially when you are going abroad and not sure what you would be able to find in the stores there, getting out of your comfort zone a bit. So I thought I would take the time to sit down with you and discuss what I have found to be the best things that I ended up being abroad. What…
