  Don’t settle for a life of regrets and routine. Life should be an amazing adventure. 
  Most people will tell you they want to live a meaningful life and die without regrets. For some reason though, many live the way they feel they have to instead of the way they really want to. Maybe we are waiting for permission to chase our dreams and passions and be who we want to be. Maybe it’s just easier to stop hoping and settle for the status quo. But is it? 
  We can live in a prison of disappointment, surrender, and excuses where we regret not doing the things we were afraid to do, or we can passionately pursue our dreams and create a fulfilling and meaningful life. You get to choose. 
  Passport Forward tells the many exciting stories of adventure traveler Lex Latkovski and his quest to overcome obstacles, step through fears, and create a passionate and exciting life. Lex invites you to seize opportunities while you can, choose experiences over material things, and take the first step now... then keep going. 
  "My wife and I bought a boutique hotel in Costa Rica after reading Lex’s book. We were so inspired by his message of living fearlessly that we traded a typical suburban lifestyle for an adventure in paradise. Lex takes you with him on a journey and shows you that often we are the only ones holding ourselves back from chasing our dreams. Passport Forward is authentic and entertaining and a delight to read.” - Mark Leaman, Owner, Rancho Pacifico - Costa Rica 
  Lex Latkovski has been to 82 countries, all 50 US states, and lived as a Zen monk for 16 months. He unknowingly rode a motorbike through a tiger preserve at night, spent months trekking in the Himalayas, made it to the semifinals on NBC’s America’s Got Talent, and spent 12 days horseback riding in Mongolia. His travel blog, TheLexpedition.com, entertains and inspires people all over the world.

  A History of Ancient Egypt’s...

  Africa may have given rise to the first humans, and Egypt probably gave rise to the first great civilizations, which continue to fascinate modern societies across the globe nearly 5,000 years later. From the Library and Lighthouse of Alexandria to the Great Pyramid at Giza, the Ancient Egyptians produced several wonders of the world, revolutionized architecture and construction, created some of the world’s first systems of mathematics and medicine, and established language and art that spread across the known world.  
  For almost four millennia, the Great Pyramids of Ancient Egypt have been widely hailed as the single greatest archeological feat man has ever accomplished. The Great Pyramid at Giza is the only one of the seven wonders of the ancient world to have survived into the modern age. Unlike so many pieces of the historical record which have been “re-discovered,” relatively recently (in the grand scheme of things,” in their four thousand years of existence, the Great Pyramids have never allowed themselves to be truly forgotten by the human civilization which has never ceased to regard them with wonder and awe. 
  Egypt also impressed its contemporaries. The 5th century B.C. Greek historian Herodotus wrote that Egypt was “the gift of the Nile” because the river made its soil so fertile and thus helped create one of the first great civilizations. Indeed, the land of Egypt so impressed the Greeks that when Alexander the Great conquered the Nile Valley in the 4th century B.C., he decided that he would build a new city on its soil and name it Alexandria. After Alexander, the city of Alexandria grew and became the most important city in the world for centuries as it watched and played a role in the rise and fall of numerous dynasties. The city also became home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World – the Lighthouse of Alexandria – and a center of culture and learning, which was exemplified by the Library of Alexandria.
