What Belly Dancing Taught Me about Personal Branding
February 26, 2010 posted by Nate Bunger
This is a guest post by Lisa Barone. If you haven’t noticed Personal branding is a huge passion of mine. It’s a must know subject for anyone looking to grow a business on the Internet and when I came across this article I knew it needed to have place on my blog. It is by far one of the best explanations I have read on the subject of finding ones voice, which is a process every writer goes through.
I have always loved writing and I think initially this was why I was so attracted to blogging. I feel I am arriving to a state of connection with what I am meant to be writing about and indeed honing in on what is calling me. It’s a a wonderful feeling.
This article is a brilliant explanation of the journey of finding ones voice..I hope you enjoy!

“I’m learning to belly dance.
Okay, that’s totally overstating it. I’m wiggling to music in what is labeled a belly dancing class. Keep On Reading! »

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” ~Leonardo DaVinci
I arrived by plane into Santiago Chile late one evening after a very long night in Arica Chile taking in the potent eye candy of Carnival festival.
With nothing but two small bags and my back pack containing my laptop and cameras, (my virtual office) I stroll easily through the baggage claim and out the front doors of the airport, taking in the first breath of yet another new world full of experiences preparing to unfold…already in the process of unfolding.

You have to leave the city of your comfort
and go into the wilderness of your intuition.
What you’ll discover will be wonderful.
What you’ll discover is yourself.~ Alan Alda ~ American actor, director and screenwriter
Recently, I spent a few weeks in a town called Arequipa located near the border of Chile and Peru. It’s a very mystical city and without question, captured my heart forever.
Regardless of the sporadic and slow Internet connections and impossible phone systems, it became hard to leave the remote city of nearly one million people, all of which seem to live in a time that more or less no longer exists. Keep On Reading! »

“The one way to get thin is to re-establish a purpose in life.”
~Cyril Connolly, The Unquiet Grave
Wow…I was FAT!! And the thing was I lived a healthy lifestyle by most peoples standards. At least that’s what I thought…
I was running 3 days a week and hiked nearly every weekend. I ate mostly fruits and vegetables and almost always some sort of sandwich for lunch. And since I owned a smoothie franchise at the time, I would have a fresh fruit smoothie nearly every morning and almost never ate fast food.
But despite all of this, I was still fat. “What was the problem?” I would ask myself, “Why can’t I lose weight?… Finally, enough was enough… Keep On Reading! »
My Experience In Peru: Random Footage of Exotic Markets, Bizarre Foods and Strange Parades
January 29, 2010 posted by Nate Bunger
Random Footage
Most of the posts I make on this site will tend to have a story line to them…for example a journey to some place or maybe documenting some sort of process or experience I’ve had.
But there is also many times that I capture footage that doesn’t seem to fit into any story line other than the fact that it’s just part of my every day experience. More or less random events that I think are cool enough to pull out my camera and start recording. (At least I think they’ll cool, but then again I’m very easily amused)
And to be honest, I feel like if I didn’t publish them for you to see I would be depriving you of some really good stuff.
Some Random Thoughts As I Made This Video
The more I travel the more I find that there is as many commonalities as there is differences in the way people and things operate around the world. Without question, I think you’ll see, especially if you have never traveled outside of the States, that the way most people live in the world is indeed very different than the way we have come to experience life in the US. A good lesson for the many people that tend to think they have it all figured out. Keep On Reading! »
My Experience: Visiting Ancient Man Made Floating Islands On Lake Titicaca In Peru..
January 23, 2010 posted by Nate Bunger
After an 8 hour bus ride on my way into Arequipa, I decided to stop in the town of Puno. Puno is basically on the border of Bolivia and Peru. In fact, the town of Puno is most often used as the entrance point for many people trekking into Bolivia. It also sits on Lake Titicaca (pronounced “tee tee ka ka”) which is the world’s highest navigable lake at 12,500 feet (3,810 m) above sea level and is the second largest lake of South America (after Maracaibo).

My Experience Eating Live Guinea Pig in Peru…(Warning!! You Tube Has Banned This Video In Several Countries)
January 16, 2010 posted by Nate Bunger
When I first arrived in Peru I heard that Guinea Pig was a popular delicacy.. I was fascinated by this, because I had always seen Guinea pigs as pets and not something you eat for dinner. I knew right then that I had to try it and make a video out of the experience. Keep On Reading! »
My Experience: Hiking Through The Peruvian Jungles To Machu Picchu….MUST SEE!
January 16, 2010 posted by Nate Bunger
Hiking to Machu Picchu was an incredible adventure and by far one of the best experiences of my life. We started out on bicycles riding approximately 3 hours in heavy rain down a mountainside where we would arrive in a very small town called Santa Maria.
The next day we set out on foot for what would turn out to be a grueling 3 days of hiking through the mountainous jungles of the Andes on the Inca Trail, which would eventually lead us straight to Machu Picchu. Keep On Reading! »
