20 Questions with Daniel of TheWorldOfDeej.com

      This week brings the fourth installment of my little game of 20 Questions. This weeks victim is Daniel, the man behind The World Of Deej. Like myself Daniel is an escapee of the luxury hotel industry who is now enjoying being on the other end of the equation. He lives in Florida and his site focuses primarily on hotel, restaurant and golf course reviews in the Southeastern region of America. Oh and he has a fascination with ‘The Big Lebowski.”

       If you not familiar with my little game of 20 questions it was inspired after spending months on the road. I had grown tired of being asked the same questions upon meeting someone new: Where are you from? Where you going next? How long have you been traveling for? If you have traveled for any extended period of time I am sure you are familiar with these questions as well.

     So when I met someone new on the road now I often ask them off the wall questions and have found that it is a great ice breaker and usually starts a way more memorable exchange than the above questions. It was these interactions that inspired this interview section. I thought it would also be a fun way to ‘met’ my fellow travel bloggers. I hope you enjoy the silliness

Pluto…Because it IS a planet.

As always I let the victim of my little game turn the tables on me for 1 question. Seems only fair, right? Daniel wanted to know…
