Stevie J Vs The Mediterranean Sea

Here we go again. I’d never been on a cruise before this year—and somehow ended up doing three. This is number two (even though, technically, it was the third). Confused? Yeah, me too. But I’m telling this one second because the Mediterranean deserves a little more love. It's more thought-provoking, more layered. Alaska was jaw-dropping, sure. But the Med? The Med has soul. They say the Mediterranean is the epitome of vacation spots—and it’s hard to argue. If food, culture, h

Is Las Vegas Losing Its Spark or Just Changing Shadows

Las Vegas once stood as a shining beacon of excitement, energy, and endless possibilities. The city that never sleeps drew millions with its dazzling lights, world-class entertainment, and vibrant nightlife. But after 12 years away, returning to Las Vegas reveals a different story.

Discovering Our Roots: Traveling To The Prague To Find Out

Before I begin I want to mention I knew I'd love Prague before ever visiting there. I always say London is my spirit home. But Prague is like the fun uncle house you always want to visit. And I'm not talking about that creepy uncle either that your parents keep you away from... Jokes, all bad jokes. Moving on. Lets get it into it. Why do simple questions never get a simple answer? Such as where’s your family from? It's a question that plagued my family for years. We are the J
