Aldo Bodogo - Global Citizen. Bon Vivant.

Global Citizen. Bon Vivant.

A Global Citizen is someone who is aware of and understands the wider world and their place in it. Global Citizenship is the idea that one’s identity transcends geography or political borders and that responsibilities or rights are derived from membership in a broader class: “humanity”.

The French term Bon Vivant literally means “one who lives well” and refers to a person who enjoys the good things of life.

A Bon Vivant is a free spirit who enjoys spending time with other people and has refined tastes, particularly with respect to food & drink.

Namaste. Ciao. Howdy. Cheers.

I am a life-long traveler with extensive experience planning itineraries, figuring out logistics, navigating airports and train stations, staying in hotels, dining in restaurants and drinking in bars.

Here I hope to share some of what I’ve learned along the way and offer guidance and inspiration to not just see the world but to experience and appreciate it.

I can’t recall any country I’ve visited that I didn’t enjoy in one way or another, but the following photos reflect some of my personal favorite destinations.

The problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind.

A dog’s face or a good song can dissolve a bad attitude and make me smile quicker than anything. They are both powerful forces for good, and we can never have too many of those in our lives.
