When writing my CrosbyReports, the destinations themselves are of little importance. In fact, to be perfectly honest, they’re almost beside the point. They’re nothing more than a subject or topic around which to make stupid jokes. So if you’re expecting to learn something useful about travel destinations like Lisbon, the Sahara, or Tahiti, you’ll be sorely disappointed. My apologies.
Why you should visit Australia in spite of all the things that could kill you.
Few other travel destinations offer tourists as many different and dangerous ways to painfully die.
3 sights in Oaxaca Mexico that almost make up for it not being on a beach.
Oaxaca, Mexico is a full eight-hour drive from the nearest coast. What the hell, right?
Amsterdam is the (Nether)land of pot, prostitution, and polders.
Amsterdam wasn’t always a haven for patchouli-wearing, pot-smoking perverts. For a long time, the place was just a big-ass swamp.
Bora Bora is the world’s leading producer of aqua and teal.
Who knew that aqua and teal were true colors that actually existed in the real world?
Tahiti may be the closest you’ll ever get to paradise without dying first.
Tahiti makes Bali look like Detroit, Michigan in the winter.

Compared to Australia’s other major cities, Melbourne is a breath of fresh, and freezing Arctic air.
Belize: It’s like a giant saltwater aquarium that isn’t all full of fish poop.
People don’t come to Belize for white sandy beaches. They come for what most islands don’t have: an epic, ocean-taming barrier reef.
Guerneville, CA: Get away from everything (including cell coverage).
Not every vacation we plan is to an exotic destination. Sometimes, we just want to go someplace close and quiet.
Barcelona Spain reminds me of San Diego, only with arts and culture.
Like hot, dry weather, and tiny plates of ham? Then you’ll love Barcelona.
Seville Spain was built on stolen gold and, from the looks of the place, a shipload of it.
Seville Spain was built on stolen South American gold, and judging from the look of the place, assloads of the stuff.
Afraid of heights? Ronda Spain will give you lots to talk about with your therapist.
Do you get nervous on elevators and balconies? Then you’re not going to love Ronda Spain.
Of Spain’s many exceptional towns and cities, Madrid is the most tragically ordinary.
In any other country, Madrid would be a must-see city. But in Spain, it’s just a meh one.
