I am one of those people who loves symmetry. It Probably has something to due with my analytical mind. I just really like things to be the same on the left as they are on the right. Vance had a wonderful picture on his new blog "Bio Bay Essay", and I just couldn’t pass up the chance to do the sm…

Culebra is a small island located 20 miles east Puerto Rico (main island). It's part of Puerto Rico.  To go to Culebra Island you have either to take a ferry from Fajardo (which is 45 minutes east San Juan) or you can fly Fajardo-Culebra.  Ferry takes aprox. 1.5 hr to get there and cost U…

Though I had a limited amount of time on this enchanting island, my main mission was to reconnect with my family members. It is always so wonderful to experience the culture of Puerto Rico through their love and hospitality. Boqueron Beach is located near a bay in the town of Cabo Rojo in &n…

A week in Puerto Rico

While in college, I spent a semester in Puerto Rico taking general education courses. This was an interesting experience and quite the learning experience. While there, I maximized travel time while minimizing study time ;)

Naguabo (nah-GWAH-bo) is a municipality of Puerto Rico located in the east coast of the island. Naguabo is said to be the birth place of the pastelillo de chapín (trunkfish), a very popular food in Puerto Rico. I go to eat chillo (red snapper) and arepas (fried flour dough). From the coast, you can see Cayo Santiago, which is a small island inhabited by monkeys. The monkeys were brought from India in 1936 to be used in field studies by the University of PR.

Me and two of my best friends went to San Juan, PR for my 30th birthday. Had a blast even though we were only there 4 days and it rained.

Fajardo is a popular city in Puerto Rico located in the east region of the island. Fajardo is the center of the majority of recreational boating and snorkeling in Puerto Rico and a launching port to Culebra, Vieques, and the Virgin Islands. It also has the largest Marina in the Caribbean, called Puerto del Rey. The town contains various hotels- the El Conquistador Resort being one of its most famous hotels. Off shore near Fajardo few small islands and many coral reefs can be found.

With a couple of friends from Miami, my wife and I went to Cayey.  Cayey is located in the mountains and in the night and the mornings you can be surrounde by fog.  The temperature is usually cooler than San Juan. The reason for going to Cayey was that  we can go to a Lecho…

Well I departed to Luis Munoz Marin International Airport from Orlando, Florida on June 7th on jetBlue Airways departing at 6:50, which tuned into 8:45pm due to a late inbound aircraft from New York. I was surprised by the lack of customer service with this airline, as I have heard great reviews ab…

Now, I'm fairly new to the whole -blog 'til you drop- kind of life style, but here it goes. Traveling, what better way to live your life than to travel and to learn about that little corner down the street called world. I would be crazy not to follow this sort-of Paris today, China tomorrow communi…
