When donkeys brought water to Willemstad

April 6, 2020 Todd DeFeo

When visitors look to visit Curaçao today, they don’t need to worry about the availability of water on the island. However, turn back the clock to the early and middle years of the 20th century, and water was a more precious resource.

Three (of many) ways to enjoy Auckland, the City of Sails

December 16, 2019 Todd DeFeo

It’s a mix of the city’s culture, its history and its feeling of remoteness that make Auckland unique. It seems like many people who come to New Zealand make a beeline for the remote hiking tracks. Worthy as they are, don’t sleep on Auckland.

December 9, 2019 Todd DeFeo

With each snap of the shutter, I convinced myself we just encountered the most beautiful vista. But we were proven continuously wrong. I would say disappointed, but nothing was disappointing about the drive.
