If you travel with American Airlines in the US there is a good chance you will have a connecting flight at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. This was the case for me where I was on my way to Belize City with a connection at DFW. I was using frequent flyer points and the only seats […]
In Pictures: Beautiful buildings of Detroit
Detroit?! You’re going to Detroit?! Why? This was the most common reaction I heard when detailing my US travel plans to Americans. Occasionally I would meet someone more curious who thought it was a good idea, but they were few and far between. They wanted to go for the same reason I did: ruin porn […]
Flight Review: American Airlines – Dallas to Belize City [Business Class]
![Flight Review: American Airlines - Dallas to Belize City [Business Class]](https://www.nomadicnotes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/flight-review-american-airlines-dallas-to-belize-city-business-class_1.jpg)
Flight: American Airlines 2189 From: Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) To: Belize City (BZE) I was visiting a friend in Madison (WI) which was my last port of call in the USA before heading to Belize. Getting to Belize from Madison was going to be expensive so it was an ideal time to use my Qantas frequent […]
In Pictures: Downtown Los Angeles
I have been to Los Angeles a number of times yet I had never been to the downtown area. When I first came to LA, in 1996, the Downtown area was still off the map for tourists. It was the America that you heard on the news, with crime riddled streets and Americas largest skid […]
An unconventional convention: The World Domination Summit
As a work from home (or in my case, away) entrepreneur I have no proverbial water cooler to mingle with fellow work mates. To make up for this I attend a few conferences each year that are in my field of work. Most of the conferences I attend are travel blogging related (such as TBEX […]
Walking the High Line – New York City
New York now has two walks in my “good walks” section (New York is that kind of place) with The High Line Park now added to my collection. While not as epic as the Broadway Walk, this walk is far more relaxing, with no traffic to contend with and a length of just one mile. […]
Music, business and coffee culture in Seattle
Seattle has been on my go to list since before I started travelling internationally. Yet even after eight previous visits to the USA I had still not made it to the Pacific Northwest. So after attending TBEX in Vancouver, I finally got the chance to visit. It’s not that Seattle has any sites in particular […]
Walking the length of Broadway, New York
New York’s Broadway is a road that runs the entire length of the island of Manhattan (and continues through to the Bronx). Everyone has heard of Broadway, but before I first visited New York I just assumed it was the name of the theatre district. Ever since I discovered this geographic curiosity I have often […]
Notes on Fort Lauderdale: beaches and canals
Fort Lauderdale is one of those places that turned out better than I thought it would be. The beaches are better than Miami (softer sand) and the mansions and super yachts along the waterways are truly grand. Fort Lauderdale Beach. Fort Lauderdale is sometimes called the Venice of America. I wince whenever I hear the […]
Notes on Miami: The Capital of the Americas
Going To Miami It wasn’t my original plan to visit Miami on this trip to the USA. I was planning to road trip from Chicago back to Newport, RI, where I have based myself. It turns out that there is hardly a hostel between Chicago and Newport, so my accommodation budget was facing a blowout […]
