​If you’re like me, chances are you’ve already forgotten 2017’s disastrous Justice League movie. And sure, you’ve given DC some kind of credit for bouncing back stronger than ever with a solid performance from Aquaman, but maybe it just wasn’t enough. 

I just love catching Black superheroes (and villains) in action; after all, there’s nothing like seeing someone that looks and speaks like you kicking some a** and taking names. As a kid growing up in the 90’s, powerhouse comic book companies like Marvel and DC Comics introduced me to quite the variety of black superheroes and villains, and they played crucial roles, too. 

​Thank God for Seinfeld! Seriously, not only is it my favorite TV series of all time, it's also the greatest show to exit since the dawn of civilization. Facts!

​Oh boy, Hong Kong—have you been? It’s been one of my favorite travel destinations ever since I packed my bags, moved to China to work as an ESL teacher, and began my trek across East Asia. I first fell in love with Hong Kong during my initial 4-day visit back in 2012, and since then I’ve returned nearly several more times on solo trips and with family and friends. Here’s my list of 15+ reasons why I love Hong Kong and why you need to visit ASAP.                                                                            

So, you want to teach English abroad? Trust me, as an English as a second language teacher, or ESL teacher, in China of more than 5 years I know that it's not a decision to be taken lightly. After all, there's so much to consider, right? There's leaving your family and friends behind, adapting to a new culture, job and financial security, safety in your destined city, and overall, starting a new life and being on your own in a foreign land.

​Capoeira is the best martial art ever, period. A Brazilian martial art with origins in Africa, Capoeira is known for its flashy kicks, sweeps, acrobatic maneuvers, and constant movement, all of which are well blended into a dance-like choreography. 

Akira Toriyama's Dragonball Z was one my favorite cartoon television shows and animes as a teen. I remember like it was yesterday, whether racing home after school to catch its evening time slot on Cartoon Network or drawing all of my favorite characters, including Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Trunks, and Brolly, in a scrapbook. 

There's nothing like kicking back, scarfing down some butter popcorn, and watching a great movie. Know what I mean? Me? I've loved watching movies since as I was ye' high. My dad always had access to popular films on VHS, and the local Magic Johnson Theater down the street from my house was where I'd catch all the major releases.
