The Colombian government is working to ensure these paintings are preserved.

Deep inside the jungles of Colombia, archeologists have discovered an extensive array of ancient rock paintings, hailed as the “Sistine Chapel of the Ancients.” These glyphs represent a significant milestone in the study of pre-Columbian history and offer a new window into the lives of people wh...

Dear Daddy,
It's your birthday today. It's my birthday too. It's your little star looking up to let you know I miss you and your guiding hands stretched out for us to come to you. I watch for your double rainbows and know you are watching over me, my sisters who are still here and mom who takes care of us all. Don't be a stranger, here in Portland we have plenty of rain and I am always looking out for you. Happy Birthday daddy, you're the best.

PS: thanks for visiting at the coast a couple years ago!

Costa Rica is, of course, a paradise for nature lovers. It, therefore, makes sense that many people only wish to spend a minimal amount of time, if any, in the gritty capital of San Jose before heading to the beaches and tropical rainforests. Surrounded by volcanoes, coffee plantations, and cloud f

Now that your work week is over (for some through New Years!!!!!), is your holiday shopping finished, and the presents are under the tree? It’s time to celebrate with a cocktail! (Wild Side Destinations and Destination Weddings.Travel) is always here and open for planning your travel)

Some would say Christmas calls for eggnog or mulled wine. That is if we're at a festive lodge or Christmas Market but when at home we get to drink what we like — and I don't know how many people actually “like” eggnog. But you know what everyone I know likes?

AN Espresso Martini

Every time you’re at a dinner (or a bar) and one person — just one person — orders one, the entire table decides it’s a good idea. Call the espresso martini names if you must. Mock it if you will. But the espresso martini will always be there for you — a fulfilling cocktail that’s rich, hot, boozy, satisfying, and of course sophisticated.

Since the beginning of coffee, people have been hiding their booze in it, but the espresso martini is relatively new. According to Taste Cocktails, the smooth libation was invented by Dick Bradsell in London in the 1980s.

The original classic calls for vodka, fresh espresso, coffee liqueur, and sugar. These days espresso martinis with tequila are all the rage. Are your taste buds begging for something richer, more balanced, with sweet to***co and wood notes? This Espresso Martini recipe is for you, because it's made with Brugal 1888 double-aged rum. Of course, you can substitute any other fine rum (or tequila or vodka). After all, it’s Christmas. And Christmas is the time to drink whatever it is you want to drink!

Espresso Martini
1 1/2 oz. Brugal 1888 double-aged rum
1 oz. fresh espresso (substitute cold brew concentrate)
1/2 oz. Kahlua (substitute coffee liqueur)
1/4 oz. Licor 42 (substitute triple sec)
1/4 oz. Demerara syrup (substitute simple syrup)

Combine ingredients into a shaker. Add ice & shake. Strain into a coupe glass, garnish with three coffee beans.

PS: then, if you've got snow, get your you know what outside and make yourself a snow angel! We'd love to see your photos!
