About Me

Welcome to the online blog for traveler/writer/photographer Steven Barber. Come in. Relax. Take off your shoes and socks -- or any other article of clothing, this is the internet. Have a look around. I hope to intrigue, amuse, entertain, and maybe provoke you just a little. I love to find adventure. All I need is a change of clothes, my Nikon, an open mind and a strong cup of coffee.

LAS VEGAS - THE ROUGHER SIDE OF TOWN



I'm all about Las Vegas, and travel there a few times a year for both work and fun.

A few people don't have it quite so lucky. Beyond the north end of The Strip lie some pretty rough neighborhoods and definitely low-budget motels. Like any city, really, Las Vegas has its urban blight and a homelessness issue. 

But in Las Vegas it's a little more stark. In the shadow of the gleaming towers and beautiful
palm-laden avenues lies a separate world most of us never see. And the Vegas visitors bureaus
do their best to avoid. But they're there.

Roll up your windows and lock your doors.
