About Me

My photo
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.

Pic of the Day: A Black Eye


This poor unfortunate car was spotted on a back alley in Hollywood. 

Not exactly what they mean by "breaking" into show business.

Pic of the Day: Baaaad Passenger!


There are times I'm appalled by the behavior of other people on planes and in airports. I've blogged it several times, including my Pinhead Rules of Travel.

Bad etiquette isn't simply something championed by Emily Post, it's a courtesy for the people around you. Most people are pretty cool about it, so when someone does something boneheaded or rude, it stands out.

And it should.

Pic of the Day: Ice Cold Rhum





In the beachside town of St Jean, island of St. Barthelemy ("St Bart's") in the Caribbean, the Hotel Emeraude Plage featured a bar on the sands next to the beach.

As you can see, the rhum (that's how they spell it in the Caribbean) was served ice cold and delicious.

According to their website the bar has since been converted to the Club Eau de Mer...but the magic still remains.
