Something Different ๐คช๐คช๐คช
So I havenโt been able to travel and I just accepted a new position at my job so Iโm pretty busy these days . With that being said new content is hard to come by for the time being. So Iโm going to do a spotlight on the special woman in my life . The woman who makes me smile. Sheโs my travel buddy, soulmate and hopefully soon to be my wife ๐ค๐ฝ Ms. Tia Williams (applause ๐๐พ)

When I tell yโall I have been blessed to travel the world with my best friend thatโs exactly what it means. We have travels to 6 of the 7 continents together and I wouldnโt trade it for the world . We both love to travel , both have pretty decent careers and we are deeply in love . Honestly she was the person who inspired my blog and my dope travel jacket . Thatโs enough of the mushy love ๐ so Iโll just leave some of my fav pics of us together on our wonderful journey ! Until next time live, laugh, love, and travel โ๐พโ๐พ

Traveling inside the states during COVID-19 part 4 : Houston ๐ค๐พ๐ค๐พ๐ค๐พ๐ค๐พ ๐ฉ๐ซโ๏ธ
As you all know we are still in the middle of a worldwide pandemic and it doesnโt seem to be slowing down anytime ๐. With that being said we are still playing it safe for now and traveling inside the U.S. until this virus ๐ฆ slows down.
HOUSTON, TEXAS

What does H-town have to offer ??
Houston has some of the best food Iโve had in a longtime. I knew down south was good eating but Houston really is the best. If youโre a breakfast guy like myself , I highly recommend the Breakfast Klub . I tried the chicken and waffles and it was def 5-stars๐๐๐๐๐. Later in the week we made it to the Turkey Leg Hut. We waited in line for close to what had to be 2 hours . Once I bit in to that turkey leg I knew immediately the wait was well worth it !! I ordered the Alfredo shrimp stuffed turkey leg. This turkey leg was complete jumbo grilled shrimp ๐ค , Cajun Alfredo sauce, on top of a bed of rice ! Absolutely amazing , and you can get numerous drink to wash it all down . I would recommend the Don Julio 1942 frozen tequilas . ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ


What should I do when I visit Houston ?!?!
One thing that I highly recommend is making the short drive (less than a hour) over to Galveston, Texas and enjoy the beach. You can visit the Galveston Island Pleasure Pier or you can catch some waves like I did . The water was a bit rough due to the hurricane that was moving through the water at the time . That only made it more exciting for me ๐คช๐คช๐คช

If you like to shop then the Galleria Mall is the sport for you ! Every store you can possibly think of is there. All of the high end stores like Gucci, Prada, and Burberry. This cool mall even has a skating rink right in the middle of the mall !!!
Houston Night life is Amazing !!!
We visited clubs , bars , and Halo . Halo was definitely a good time Iโd youโre into strip clubs with beautiful women . But Iโm more of a laid back and chill kind of guy and thatโs why prospect park was my favorite spot. They have frozen drinks and some pretty good food. Combine that with a mature crowd , hookah, and Djs playing the best music out you are going to have a good time !!! Ghost and Spire were decent clubs but next time Iโm going to the Address, I hear thatโs the spot to be . Overall Houston is pretty dope. i love the strong black culture in the city and the black owned businesses. We need more vibrant and happening cityโs for our culture like H-town . Iโll leave more pics s videos highlighting the trip below for you guys. Until next time live, laugh, love, and travel !!!!! ๐๐

Traveling during Covid-19 inside the states part II
Yooooooooooooooo good afternoon world ๐!!!!! Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe out there . Today we are back with part two of this series . Just trying to give you guys some ideas on where to travel inside the U.S.A during this pandemic . Hopefully ๐๐พ other countries will open their borders to US citizens soon so i can get back to my bucket list ๐ค๐ฝ.

This was my second time visiting โSin Cityโ , celebrating my lovely girlfriends birthday ๐ฅณ!!! I will admit the trip didnโt go as expected due to the crazy weather while we were there but more on that later.

Our flight arrived in fabulous Las Vegas at I believe at 9 a.m. . We caught a cab ๐ straight to our hotel at the Venetian. If youโre ever looking for a great hotel with great service and early check-in options this is the spot for you . The Venetian is a beautiful hotel and the casino ๐ฐ was amazing . They even have great food options all over the resort so you donโt have to leave if you just want to relax.
As I mentioned at the beginning of the blog the weather in Vegas was tricky . The windy was extremely strong with gusts from 20-30 mph and cool air. Completely canceling all plans I had at Lake Las Vegas , which is a lake with plenty of water activities. So the only thing we could do was shop . We visited the Las Vegas Premium Outlet malls , north and south. After that it was back to the hotel for drinks a gambling.
One activity we did get to experience was the Madame Tussauds Las Vegas. Madani Tussauds is a wax museum located on the Las Vegas strip inside the Venetian . You can see some of your favorite Hollywood stars โญ๏ธ made out of wax !!!! U will think itโs really them .




Traveling during COVID-19 inside the states Part I …..

2020 has been the year of the unexpected !!!! Dealing with COVID-19 has been at the top of the list, claiming the lives of thousands and affecting the way we travel and where we travel for the foreseeable future. With very limited travel options outside of the country itโs a good time to see what the U.S. has to offer. Here are a few travels ideas if you are looking to getaway soon. Mask up at all times, keep your hands clean, and social distance when possible. We have been blessed to follow these guidelines and remain healthy during our traveling. Have fun and stay safe ! ๐๐พโ๐พ

In August we took a road trip with friends to Gatlinburg, Tennessee. This was my third time visiting , but it is a lot of fun every time I have been. We stayed in a 5- bedroom cabin that had a jacuzzi, pool table, and plenty of room for the festivities. The first day we arrived we spent more time settling in than actually exploring the city. It was kind of hard maneuvering throughout the small city as they were hosting their annual โJeep Invasionโ. People from all over the world bring their Jeeps that weekend to show them off and admire others. During the next few days there would be plenty of time for drinks , laughs and memories. We shopped , rented atvโs , zip-lined, and did some wine ๐ท tasting amongst other things. Gatlinburg is always a good time and offers great views from the mountain. Oh and if youโre lucky you will see some black bears.
