The Inspired Life |  March 4, 2013 | By Duane Bobbsemple


I’m sure you’ve had some really nice movie outings throughout your lifetime, but I can guarantee you’ve never had a movie experience quite like this. Well, that’s unless you were one of the handful of guests that were invited to take part in the surreal epicness that took place in a lagoon just off one of Thailand’s remote islands.

A Floating Hotel

Featured, The Inspired Life, Things to Do |  February 21, 2013 | By Duane Bobbsemple


Let’s face it: trekking through the Amazon jungle isn’t for everyone. Some folks wouldn’t be able to handle the hot humid critter infested environs of the jungle. They’d sooner choose death. If you’re one of those folks, then there’s a way you can experience the jungle, without actually “experiencing” the jungle. Luckily, it involves a ton of splendor and a hotel that just so happens to float on water.

Featured, The Inspired Life |  December 5, 2012 | By Duane Bobbsemple


Tree Hotel - You could pretty much bring me anywhere on this beautiful green earth, but getting me to actually “rough it” on green earth? Well, that’s just something that’s not going to happen. Sure, call me a princess, pansy, or both. But if I ever were to spend a night out in the wilderness, it would have to be in something like the dwelling above.

Wanderlust is a real thing. Once you have it, you have it and there is no going back. It can lie dormant for a while until something triggers it, or it can be something  you’re born with. Like the fellow featured in this video. His name is Raul and it appears that he has a serious case of Wanderlust. The video gives you a brief glimpse into the life of Raul and some others who have chosen to follow their dreams by pursuing an alternative lifestyle. A lifestyle that involves being free and roaming the remote corners of the earth on a shoestring budget. If you’ve ever wondered why some people you know just can’t seem to sit still, then this video will give you some insight as to why. Enjoy!

A Sea Cave Restaurant

The Inspired Life, Things to See |  September 25, 2012 | By Duane Bobbsemple


Wow, if there were ever a restaurant that would be sure to woooo the pants off your significant other, then this would have to be it. “The Summer Cave” (dubbed that because it’s only open in the summer months) is a restaurant that is located in Polignano a Mare in Southern Italy and it was built inside of a Cave (Yes, a cave). Allowing diners to partake in a truly unique dining experience. It sits 74 feet above sea level so diners can peer over the side and see the waves hitting the rocks below.

The Inspired Life: Maldives Islands

The Inspired Life |  November 14, 2011 | By Duane Bobbsemple

No, I’ve never been here, yet. But someday, somehow I’ll find myself lounging in a beach chair submerged in the islands’ pristine white sands, surrounded by warm cobalt blue waters. Yeah, I know, there are a ton of nice beaches out there, however, most of those are seaside traffic jams. Here I’ll find solitude. And there is such a peace in this picture of abundance: fresh fish from the ocean, and fresh fruit from the trees. I would want for nothing here. Ahhhhh…someday.
