Traveling from Flores to Copan Using Public Transportation After wandering the cobblestone streets on the island of Flores (located on Lago Petén Itzá), and the Mayan ruins of Tikal, you might feel ready for another adventure. Why not head to Copan, Honduras, where you can explore another Mayan site. Recently, I traveled from Flores to Copan using only public transportation. Many locals recommended first going to Guatemala City, spending the night, and then to Copan. This wasn’t an option for me and my friend since he had limited time.

Aunt Cassie

I couldn’t stand Aunt Cassie, or her tattooed eyebrows, fake nails, and platinum blonde hair. Her Botox lips protruded as she shared tales from India. “The boys loved me,” she said. “I got seven marriage proposals on my trip.” Anger bubbled in my stomach.

The post Aunt Cassie appeared first on ..read more

I blinked, and I was at the door, fumbling with the lock with trembling hands. I saw her toes first. The dog sniffed her; his nose pressed to her belly. Above me, the curtain danced in the breeze through the open window. My legs trudged across the grass. My baby. Monica Gray, Flash Fiction The post The Window appeared first on ..read more

I drove down snowy roads that meandered deep through the forests of Lapland.   “We’re about 10 kilometers away, keep following this road,” my friend Rocker said. His red mohawk reached the roof and took up a majority of the reflection of the rearview mirror. “Keep this speed too, we don’t want to miss them. They could disappear any second.” My sweaty hands gripped the steering wheel of the rental car as I cruised at 80 kph on snowy roads in the middle of the night. Don’t slam the breaks if there’s black ice, turn in the direction you want to go, I repeated in my head like a mantra. Despit ..read more

Boomtown isn’t only a festival, it’s a world where hackers lurk in hidden rooms, secret messages are behind locked doors, and actors wait for you to whisper a classified code so they can guide you into rooms located in another dimension.
