Hey Adventurers,
Not too long ago I joined the growing community of Pinterest and have been posting photos of travel, social media and other surprises.
And with Facebook, Twitter, StumbleUpon, FourSquare, Yelp, YouTube, Flickr and this blog, there’s a ton of ways we can connect. Oh, and don’t forget to sign-up to my newsletter and RSS feed too.
But I thought long and hard about incorporating even more ways for us to engage and talk travel…
And so it is with great pleasure that I share that you can find adventures with ben on America’s favorite social network, MySpace!

Every once in a rare while I stray away from the travel talk and give a business update. It helps me to organize my thoughts… so thank you in advance for this opportunity. And if you must have a travel story to read, why not catch up on my 33 Must-Read Adventures?
At the beginning of the year I shared my New Year’s Resolutions for 2011. Today, I’d like to take a moment and reflect on the outcome of them all.

- Build a more robust Travel Guides section – I’d say this project is always evolving and will continue to be on my list for 2012.

Hey Adventurers,
I’m going to start a new, somewhat randomly scheduled series called “Random Travel Stories You’ll Enjoy”. I spend a lot of time on StumbleUpon, scouring the web for interesting stories in travel and technology. It’s a great tool to discover new websites, trends, and kill some time. If you stumble, why not follow me too?
Today’s post features the Lake Eola Fountain here in Orlando after the Orlando Pride Fireworks over the weekend.

There’s a quite a bit of chatter lately amongst the Travel Blog-o-sphere to share “My Seven Links” – posts that answer 7, separate topics. It’s sponsored by TripBase and I was nominated by my fellow friend and colleague Erin De Santiago from Our Tasty Travels.
Most Beautiful Post – How to Track Lions at a Game Reserve
How to Track Lions at a Game Reserve offers several tips to track and spot lions in South Africa. After a 3-day search, we finally encountered two male lion – dad and son. They had just finished a battle and were walking to water. It was just 4 of us in the Land Rover and no one else. With the lions right by our side, it was a spectacular moment I’ll remember forever.

Why Winning a Bowling Tournament is Like Blogging
Last year you may remember my post on “How to Get Your Name on a Plaque at a Bowling Alley“. Well… on Saturday night, my bowling league held it’s end of the year awards ceremony and I am excited to share that for the 2nd year in a row, I have won the tournament of 128 bowlers.
What was the secret?
I make no claims to be an expert bowler, my average is a steady 142. But playing regularly, remaining focused on the goal, getting lucky and enjoying the ride all contributed to preserving my name and reputation for posterity – in the foyer of a bowling alley!
