The Stray Dogs of Lagos

pic 082The Stray Dogs of Lagos – Shaun Makes a Friend

So after another late night in Lagos, Jon and I missed check out and are here for another day. Terrible. I got up at the crack of noon to go for a hike and make the most of another day here. It was gorgeous out. There is a trail here that goes along the cost from small beach to small beach. It was amazing. The most beautiful sights I have seen so far. At the second beach I met my black lab friend. The Stray Dogs of Lagos are awesome. There are so many cruising the streets and its not like they are wandering, they are on there way somewhere. There is one dog that hangs out at the bar we have been going to. This dog just chills on one of the couches with the music blasting. I was on the beach and saw this black lab come running down the 100 or so steps to the beach and into the water. Poor thing must have been dying from the heat. He then started digging frantically on the beach then brought a rock over to me. We played fetch for at least an hour. Reminded me of my brothers dog, “Trek”. I called this one “El Treko”. He would not stop and dove into the waves like a pro. The Stray Dogs of Lagos are also playful.

After I got tired from playing fetch I continued along the coast until I hit the point. I stayed there for a few hours. It was amazing. The coast has tons of huge holes that lead down to the ocean and carved out arc’s. My mom sent me an email wondering what Lagos was really like…here you go.

Off for some eats and beer. Sevile Spain tomorrow?

The Amazing Punta Banda Peninsula in Ensenada

If you visit the port city of Ensenada, chances are you are going to be offered a tour to La Bufadora, a famous blowhole located on the Punta Banda Peninsula. For many, La Bufadora has become one of Ensenada’s top attractions.  As a consequence, it is a bit difficult to take off the entire area out of the “tourist trap” list. However, I believe Punta Banda is worth well a visit due to its natural, rugged beauty.  You can find cliff vistas, sea stacks, and small coves.  On a sunny day, the place is just gorgeous. On this article, I want to cover the area from the touristic and non-touristic perspectives.  I’ll let you choose how you want to visit. About Punta Banda Ensenada is located in the Todos Santos (All Saints) Bay.  The southern portion of the bay is delineated by the Punta Banda Peninsula, a finger-like strip of land. Almost at the tip of the peninsula (at the end of the paved road), you are going to find La Bufadora, a feature described as a marine geyser or tidewater bl...

30 Things to do in Nuremberg, Germany: The Ultimate List!

Looking for things to do in Nuremberg, Germany? This list has you covered with everything from the touristy musts to quirkier offbeat finds. Enjoy! I’ll be real: Nuremberg is a place that’s   easy to fall for. This world-famous city, located in the north of Bavaria, is every bit the fairytale dream so often linked to  Deutschland : candy cane half-timbered facades, an epic castle on a hill, dangerously munchable gingerbread, and a glittering Christmas market to boot. But as with most amazing cities, the true magic of Nuremberg comes from its dynamic layers. Lurking beneath those photogenic facades is a dark past intertwined with war, genocide, and centuries of tumultuous history. It is precisely this duality that makes Nuremberg one of the most fascinating cities to visit in Germany, and one that you can keep visiting again and again. So, what is there to do in Nuremberg? It turns out, plenty of things. Below you’ll find a roundup of my favourite things to do in ...

How to do the Kjerag hike, Norway

Planning to do the Kjerag hike and take one of the most incredible pics of your life? You’re on the right page.  Kjerag (the mountain) and Kjeragbolten (the boulder) has became very popular over recent years, especially because of social media, and nowadays thousands of Instagrammers from all over the world come to do the Kjerag hike and get the daredevil no-photoshopped picture. On the top of Kjeragbolten, Norway. After spending one and half day in Olso in the beginning of August of 2015, I took a flight to Stavanger. There are plenty of flights from Oslo to Stavanger, and prices can be as low as 25.00 euros. As I was by myself and not planing to rent a car, I opted for this city as a start point to my hikes in Norway because during the high season there is a bus from Stavanger to Kjerag (Øygardstøl). After a 50min flight, a bus from the airport to Stavanger’s terminal, and a 15min walk I arrived at the hotel. I just checked-in, drooped off my stuff and went to explore ...
