Overview

One Tragedy Per Trip is a travel memoir for people who know that if you leave home long enough, something will go wrong.

From powerlifting meets and primitive backpacking trails to helicopter rides over the Smoky Mountains, pay toilets in Ireland, border chaos in Miami, altitude sickness in Peru, and lions growling outside canvas tents in Africa-this is the story of a marriage built not on ease, but on endurance.

Each trip comes with at least one catastrophe.
A missed hotel. A cracked engine. A violent bout of altitude sickness. A ferry that shouldn't be trusted. A son who reaches his limit. A night on an airport floor.

But the tragedy is never the point.

What unfolds instead is something better: humor in the middle of discomfort, confidence forged in uncertainty, and the kind of resilience that only comes from choosing to keep going.

Told with sharp honesty and dry wit, One Tragedy Per Trip is a reminder that adventure isn't about perfect itineraries or filtered sunsets. It's about showing up when things unravel-and laughing later.

Because eventually, every disaster becomes a story.
