Gearing Up & Getting to the Atacama Desert We did something different this trip. Instead of leaving the second we got out of work on Friday, we left on Saturday instead. With all the craziness in my life recently, I needed the extra time to pack and chill. Was nice, but also cuts our vaca […]
No, no. There’s nothing wrong with your email—I haven’t been active for quite some time on the ol’ Global Debauchery, it’s true. I sincerely apologize. The good news is that I’m back and I have a plethora of travel stories to share with you in your Back at Basecamp 5! From Japan to Chile to […]
Global | adjective | glob•al | \’glō-bəl\ : involving the whole world. Debauchery | noun | de•bauch•ery | \di-‘bȯ-chə-rē\ : excessive indulgence; intemperance: seduction from duty. An Overindulgence of Wanderlust What better way to describe something than by quoting someone who’s already expressed it best? Leo Tolstoy. “I wanted movement & not a calm course of existence. […]
We’ll be visiting Glacier National Park today, but… I think it’s safe to say I may have overdone it last night. I’m sure a combination of factors led to me feeling pretty poorly this morning (the altitude, a horrible but free Jaegermeister shot, drinking another high-percentage beer, etc.), but mostly, I probably just drank more […]
Gorgeous morning in Jackson Hole! Sunny with just a few clouds in the sky, fog lifting off the hilltops. Stopped off at the post office to mail a super cool holographic postcard to my nephew for his collection before we headed out. We’d just left town for touring Yellowstone and found a herd of bison […]
It finally happened. I “slept in” until 7. Yes, ladies and gents, this is pretty crazy for me. And it was awesome. The trusty Hampton Inn delivered a so-so breakfast, but it was free, so I’ll take it. Got a big day ahead of us, touring and hiking in the Grand Tetons. Touring & Hiking […]
Jackson Hole’s Million Dollar Cowboy Bar Sad to find exactly zero bison in the picnic area in front of our cabin when we woke up. The bartender got us all worked up after telling us how they just hang out there all the time. She told us she sees grizzlies all the time on the […]
All The Wildlife of Yellowstone So much for sleeping in. #EpicFail. I woke up at four o’clock in the morning… which turned okay because I posted my first blog of the trip while the #AdventurePartnerForLife snoozed away next to me. It was lightly snowing when I woke up and a little colder than I was […]
Off to West Yellowstone Remind me to never book a 6 a.m. flight ever again. Ever. And remind me, too, that I’m a little older now and not nearly as energetic as I once was, so I may want to actually take the day prior to my next trip off work. Just to have the […]
Meet Jeff Rasley, Fellow Global Debaucherer Tell us a little bit about yourself and your background. I live on the White River in Indianapolis with my wife, Alicia, and our cat, Bandit. It’s a long way from Nepal. My loves, other than wife, kids, and writing, have been sports and what has been called adventure […]
