The Rock at Reconciliation Place in Canberra
Written By: jeff
Posted On: October 4th, 2013
As the capital of Australia, Canberra should be a little more happening. But for the most part, I found it lacking. That’s not to say that it doesn’t have its sites. Naturally the Parliament is a must-visit destination. Once you are on the grounds, you will run into Reconciliation Place. The site symbolizes the struggle […]
Surf and Turf in the Chilean Patagonia

If you’ve followed me for any amount of time, you know that I love Patagonia and I love the Navimag ferry. Once you dock you have time to mill around on the deck and take in the scenery. Just off the shore of Puerto Montt (the city where you board the ferry) is a small […]

There’s no denying that Brazil is hot right now. A strong, growing economy, the upcoming FIFA World Cup the food, the people, the accent…what’s not to love? While in Rio I spent a few hours at the Botanical Gardens. It’s a great setting with a mix of manicured, well-protected orchids to these sorts of overgrown […]

One of my goals on my career break was to learn how to ski. Given that I was going to spend a lot of time in Argentina, I headed to Bariloche to ski for about three weeks. I signed up for week-long lessons and then I was on my own. Almost every day for 3 […]
Classic Italian Dessert: Biscotti and Vin Santo

Posted On: September 6th, 2013
Biscotti is an old friend of mine. We go way back. Having now traveled to Italy I learned that biscotti has been holding out on me. He’s never introduced me to his BFF Vin Santo (Holy Wine). I guess that’s where the old Italian saying comes from, ¨They go together like biscotti and Vin Santo.¨ […]
Pristine Landscape Around the Hagia Sofia

Turkey was one of my favorite countries on my career break and one of my biggest pleasant surprises. While there’s so much more to see outside of Istanbul, I had to get my classic shot of the Hagia Sofia. There’s already so much written about it, I don’t feel like I have much to add. […]
Foggy Start at Machu Picchu

Machu Picchu in Peru opens early. For those like me not hiking the Inca Trail an early morning bus at 5AM takes you up the steep mountain to the entrance. The ticket line seems long but it moved quickly. Entering the grounds was aided by the path, a necessary aide given the thick cover of […]

Evita’s Mausoleum in the Recoleta Cemetery

Posted On: May 10th, 2013
So, I recently found out that Eva Peron and I share a birthday. And oddly, the day of her death falls on my mom’s birthday. As an icon in Argentina who is still remembered and revered, I wanted to put this Suh-Weet Shot up of her mausoleum entrance around a significant date in her life. […]
The Cliffs of Moher

In previous Suh-Weet Shots, I showed off the cliffs of Ireland and a beautiful old Irish castle, both on the west coast. Of course, the most renowned thing to see in western Ireland are the cliffs of Moher. Steep dropoffs into the cold North Atlantic are seen from the lookout platform. If I’m being 100% honest, they […]
