Hey There. I'm Gregg

I’d love to say that this blog is about exotic locations around the world…but it’s not. It’s merely a collection of helpful hints and insider knowledge on a few of the places that I know best, some close to home and some a bit further away.

Enjoy posts on some great vacation destinations, and if the shoe fits, stream one of my interactive audio tours on the cities and towns that I frequent. I also do a few live tours on Cape Cod, so if you are visiting, be sure to sign up.
