This is a story about disaster in Peru. 

But also recovery, adventure and thanks.

We were just happy to make it out of that place alive.

So of course we celebrated by eating.

A big, festive meal, straight from the earth.

Happy Thanksgiving!

You ever get so frustrated you surprise yourself with an outburst of anger?

You ever get so angry you surprise yourself with an outburst of frustration?

You may have...

But I did, on the way home from Barbados... at Miami International Airport.

It was cathartic for me.

Though it did piss off a few hundred people.

Guess if wasn't as cathartic for them... 

We’re on the road to Rajasthan! It's India – land of mystics, mobs and tikka masala. Just one problem: our bags didn’t make it. They’re somewhere in London… along with our camera batteries. And of course, my underwear. Yep, you guessed it - this is a travel/underwear story! 

The guys and I are on a video shoot in Florence, Italy. We're covering a chef's table so we're eating our way through course after succulent course.

They're in heaven but I caught some travel bug and am about to lose my antipasto... all over the Ponte Vecchio.  

Can I make it through the shoot or will I collapse upon the marble throne in my Florence Hotel bathroom?

Amidst the giant sand dunes in Huacachina Peru, I find myself cajoling the Peruvian president to take a dune buggy ride. But he has a bum leg and wants to sit this one out. Only problem: he’s the star of this show. No president. No show. So it’s my job to hopefully get him up on his feet and then seated down in the dune buggy. They didn’t teach us any of this stuff in film school.

Aruba is "One Happy Island", and we had explored it all on 4 wheelers, Harleys, Heli's and speedboats. We found a raucous party scene there but also ancient cave drawings and a magnificent coastline. Still, after a week of non-stop activity, nothing prepared us for the sudden upheaval of being thrown into a desperate situation. 

During the course of our journey through the royal Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan we recorded the likes of Petra, the Gulf of Aqaba and the Wadi Rum. We saw ancient Roman cities and citadels. But nothing confounded us as much as the ancient riddle, “What’s a souk?”

The chopper's wash blew down on the hundred happy tourists as we sailed over their heads. People were hanging onto their sausages. This was the shot. 

Nairobi, Kenya: “Did you know a giraffe can kill a lion?” We didn’t. But we also didn’t know a giraffe can chase a film crew around in circles. This is just one of the many things we learned on our first day in Africa.
