Reverse Culture Shock In The USA
After being away from the United States, my home country, on and off for the past two years or so, I have dealt with the effects of ‘reverse culture shock’ when I return home. There are many long-term travelers out there who come back to their home culture experience after an extended time overseas. This is because there is a natural recovery and adjustment process but it takes time to get back into the swing of things.
Plant Based
I remember being in college and wondering why I should try to go vegetarian. Why were people vegetarian? At the time, I ate everything and I ate a lot of meat. I had grown up as an endurance athlete in the high mountains of Colorado and I felt the most important part of diet was getting outside and running up mountains. I loved the outdoors and even more so, I loved going uphill and the feeling I got at the top.

However, honeymoons have changed over the year, and now they're seen as an opportunity to travel the world with your sweetie.

There's nothing like spending your summer in the Hamptons. Between the A-list celebrities, the luscious greenery and wildlife, and the peaceful sunny beaches, you are sure to have a wonderful time. The expensive attractions are worth it because you will receive only the very best. I think of the Hamptons as my second home, since I vacationed there every year as a kid.
