    Funny Signs

    As I traveled the world this past Winter, I was often amused at how cultural differences also contribute to some HILARIOUS moments where posted signs mean different things to different cultures. I just re-discovered some of my pictures from the trip and thought I’d share:...

    A Review| Phokara, Nepal

    Phokara is the Beach city of Nepal. Except the “beach” is actually the banks of the very small Phewa Lake. The energy and enthusiasm for tourists and relaxation, however is tangible and reminiscent of any California beachside community. Small shops with handpainted signs, every kind...
