Sharing stories about Roatan is what it is all about for me. I coined “Roatan Vortex” to describe my personal experience with what drew me to Roatan. It has since morphed into a phrase used by many to express the way they feel about Roatan.
Before I launched the Roatan Vortex website less than one year ago, I did a Google search to see if anyone before me had combined Roatan and Vortex. At that time—one result came up referencing a sailing log from 2002, about reaching Jonesville Bight and Hole in the Wall.
Today I did a Google search for Roatan Vortex (roatanvortex) and more than 3000 results were displayed—Holy Crap!
Now, I haven’t written that many stories yet, mind you the visit counter on the Roatan Vortex website does read more than 53,400 visits and still counting—thank you all for stopping by!
Of the more than 3000 Google search results I found, even the article for USAToday by Laura Bly (that I did a phone interview with), that article has been shared extensively by other news agencies), and many others are popping up referencing contributions the Roatan Vortex has made to the world wide web.
Most recently:
* A Guest Post for Expat Focus Blog A classic Roatan Vortex story.
*****View and/or Download Here***** The release of an E-Book Celebrating Latin America at Ground Level. Very excited to have been asked to contribute to this one!
Coming Dec 1, my first story for Pocket Cultures will be posted. I’m looking forward to sharing more details about this one with you! Insight to the Cultural Diversity–from a Canadian’s point-of-view.

Not to be forgotten about here is a few more that have contributed to the Roatan Vortex becoming a well known phrase.
***Interview at Be More With Less***
***Guest Post at Tiny Buddha***
***Guest Post at Unpaved South America***
And last (but not least) here are a few other websites that the Roatan Vortex appears on:
An excellent site brought together by LaGringa A well respected blogger in Honduras.
***We Blog the World*** A great site to visit with the emphasis on “bridging travel, culture and ideas.”
***TripAtlas *** Another great source of information on travelling the world. This one pays its contributors a little bit too when anyone clicks on and reads my stories posted there! Nod, nod, wink, wink.
And to think they all got rolling because I wanted to share with family and friends (old and new) where the heck Roatan is and to help you out when the Roatan Vortex pulls you in!
Hey, you used to write great, but the last few posts have been kinda boring… come on!
Sorry to hear you feel that way Boondocking. I always appreciate constructive criticism though. Be sure to let me know when my writing is up to par again.
