Corcovado: Costa Rica, Where Everyone is a Nature Photographer

While I was in #CostaRica I took a snorkeling tour in Drake Bay right off of Cano Island. One of our stops was Corcovado National Park. It was beautiful and the only place that I have ever seen hermit crabs in their natural element. This was also where I saw several humpback whales, a baby humpback, and a sea turtle the size of a Voltswagon Beetle. This place is truly amazing, def a must see. The mangrove tour on the way to the ocean has many adventures of its own.

6 Movies that Could Change the Way You Think About Food

We really need to stay informed about what we are putting in our bodies. For far too long the American diet has just been about shoving whatever we want in our mouths because of our opulence. However, we now see the results of that ignorance, the explosion of heart disease, cancer, diabeties, etc. All those, formerly thought to be hereditary, are now know to be primarily diet related diseases. So take some time to understand what you are doing to yourself and understand your body better...only you know what is healthy for you. Start enjoying your life!!!

Exploring a Volcanic Costa Rica

When I first arrived in Costa Rica I went straight to La Fortuna, which sits right at the base of Volcano Arenal. When I was driving down the road I was able to see one of the most majestic sights that I have ever seen. In the distance, directly in front of us, was Arenal. Larger than life, a beautiful classis cone shaped volcano. It is truly awe inspiring and I immediately understood why indigenous people all over the world have worshipped and sacrificed to their volcanoes. I was able to stay at a hotel, Linda Vista, that overlooks the volcano, so for two days I did yoga and sat in the shadow of this great volcano, is there any surprise that I fell in love with this country.

Alternative Cure: The Benefits of Eating Multiple Colored Fruits and Vegetables

It has always amazed me the vibrancy in nature. Just the beauty of the colors that cannot be matched by any Crayola crayon ever produced. Mother nature surely has her miracles. If you haven't heard of phytonutrients, they are the nutrients that really absorb into our body and provide the real fuel for everything we do. Sadly enough most of our culture is nutritionally deficient. One way to get the great phytonutrients that we need is from these brightly colored fruits and vegetables. The brighter the better. Phytonutrients are at there peak when your veggies are as bright as they can be. This is one of the easiest ways to tell if you are getting great nutrient content without being a nutritionist. Just grab a plate of some beautiful fruits and veggies and go to town. You'll feel better and fight all kinds of diseases. Check it out and eat well!!!

The Ultimate Guide to Traveling When You’re Broke

I have always found it amazing when traveling to other countries that you find people from all over the world that backpack and travel.

It is a great way to really become well rounded and experience a variety of lifestyles and cultures. We don't find that quite as much here in the states, but this article will show you how to do it even on a low budget. One of my favorite things to do is travel and believe me learning to travel on the cheap is necessary.

When I was in Costa Rica, also something that you will experience on a #WarriorVacations trip, I had the pleasure to try some unrefined completely organic chocolate made by the local people.
