Once upon my travels, I decided to visit Honduras. Yes, same Honduras that is in top 10 most dangerous countries in Americas. Weird category to be a winner at.
Taking it’s reputation into acount, I’ve aimed to reached Utila in one day. I was aware that it’s over 600km between Rio Dulce and La Ceiba with a border crossing which usually slows back the journey dramatically. But with a little research and a fortune in my pocket I was hopeing to bring a plan into reality and be on a last ferry to Utila at 4PM. (more…)

This peace of article is put into writing while sitting in an old minivan en route to Rio Dulce, hence it might come across as sensible one. And I guess thats exactly how I feel right now, so should use thiose weak hours of traveling and pull the best out of it. All for the sake of giving you the real taste of Guatemalas shady side.

Big trip completed. Time to get back into reality, pack a job, rent an apartment and start earning money. Like everyday people do. Except, I was never one of those people.
Tan in fading, so does memories. But still every morning I’m waking up with a hope to find a paradise with palm trees and never ending sunshine somewhere just around the corner. My head is itching from irrational thoughts about going away- right now, but I guess we all get the so called ‘after travel blues’. Funny enough, I couldn’t push them away, if I can’t go backpacking again, why don’t I go somewhere for a shorter holiday?! (more…)

Travel can be transformative experience. Alongside the actual trip (the air miles, unfamiliar dorm beds, indecipherable languages and alien landscapes), there’s a more personal journey. Foreign cities, different cultures and liberating getaways are often where we discover things we never knew about ourselves, or do things we never knew we would, or would dare to, back in the comfort and routine of home.

Visiting Thailand for the third time, or should I say crossing the border that many times. As the previous visit lasted like 5min just to do a border run to renew my Cambodian business visa.
However, every time I’m coming into Thailand, border crossing never goes smooth, it seems that thai immigration loves me too much to let go hassle free. Sometimes my passport looks suspicious or pictures are not the right size, or I’m just too blond. Anyways, if you’re Lithuanian, expect to have some problems 🙂 (more…)
