The land of my Celtic cousins, the Land of Cakes.

From misty lochs to ancient castles, Scotland is where history and wild beauty meet.

Explore the dramatic landscapes of Glencoe, meet the iconic Highland coos, and step into locations that inspired generational cinema like Harry Potter, James Bond, and Monty Python!

Travel hacking done right!

Cash price of this Delta One seat: $8,000

To book this seat via Delta’s website, it would’ve been 250,000 miles + fees. However, I knew there was a better way.

Instead, I booked through KLM’s Flying Blue program using 61k Capital One points + fees, getting 12 cents of value for every point.

I also helped my friend book the same flight for even less: 49k Chase Ultimate Rewards points during a transfer bonus +fees, at 15¢ CPP.

While we technically paid a little over on the fees for a short flight (only 6 hours), with such a high CPP, I still feel like a winner.

Most people think flying business and first class is out of reach. But there’s always an achievable way to book if you know where to look.

The best seats on the plane aren’t just for people with deep pockets; they’re rewarding for people who know how to play the game smarter.

Why You Need ND Filters For Your Drone

ND filters are one of the simplest upgrades you can make to instantly improve your aerial photography.

They help you control light, motion blur, and get that smooth, cinematic look that separates beginner shots from professional ones.

In this video, I break down when to use ND filters, and how they can completely change the way your footage looks in different lighting conditions.

This video is for beginner drone pilots looking to improve their aerial photography and capture cinematic drone shots.

The FREE Drone Certification No One’s Talking About

If you fly drones just for fun, you don’t need a Part 107, but you do need to pass the FAA’s Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST) to fly legally.

It’s free, takes less than 20 minutes, and has no age requirement.

The best part is you can retake any question until you get it right.

Here’s why you should get it:

✅ Covers your 🍑 in case of FAA or law enforcement issues

✅ Required for recreational flying under 55 lbs

✅ Valid forever

✅ Easier than your driver’s test

This isn’t a replacement for Part 107 or LAANC, but it’s the bare minimum every drone pilot should have.

Save and share this with your drone friends who haven’t done this yet!

🛸Even after flying for a couple of years now, I still get sweaty palms when flying a drone, especially in windy weather.

⁣ 🛸One thing I’ve noticed about most drone tutorials is that they skip the actual basics and go straight to flying to achieve cinematic shots.⁣⁣.. So here’s a beginner-friendly guide on how to turn on, take off, land, and safely power off your drone

⁣⁣ 🛸While NYC is amazing for many things, drone flying is not one of them. Mainly because it’s restricted, which doesn’t help beginners experiencing drone anxiety...⁣⁣ ⁣⁣

🛸Nonetheless, we all start somewhere! Some of us need to crawl before we can fly, so here’s a quick showcase on how to turn on, take off, land, and turn off a drone. ⁣⁣

Tompkins Square Halloween Dog Parade returns for its 35th year!

NYC knows how to do Halloween, and this dog parade might be the cutest event of the season!

Every fall, hundreds of dogs (and their owners) take over the East Village in their most creative costumes.

It’s one of my favorite NYC traditions and easily one of the best things to do in the city this time of year.

Today was perfect weather, amazing energy, and so many photogenic pups!

📌 If you’re looking for a fun and free fall event in NYC, add this one to your list for next year!
