Beyonce taught us all in “Pretty Hurts” that beauty isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.  “Miss Congeniality” made us laugh, but also made us think about beauty pageants in a different way. More and more contestants are using the competition to speak about social issues.

From all these things and more, we now understand that being a Beauty Queen is hard work. That’s why we’re sure that the contestants in the Miss Korea competition were particularly pleased with one of the gifts they received. Each of the final contenders received a Drilley’s Earth Eco Bag, a hard-working, heavy duty tote that’s nonetheless quite fashionable.

Often, this kind of heavy-duty tote bag isn’t very stylish. You’ll find them in grocery stores, often plastered with logos or photos of trees. They’re fantastic for shopping, but not something you’d want to carry if you were trying to look cool.

Drilley’s bags are an exception to this. It is just as strong or more as any reusable grocery bag and at least ten times more fashionable.

Hardworking Bags for Busy Lives

Even though we’ve all seen the documentaries and the movies, it’s probably impossible to imagine what it’s like to compete in an international level beauty pageant unless you’ve actually done so.

The women on Miss Korea 2018 no doubt have busy, hectic lives and the preparation for the competition must be intense. Before, during, and after the show, they must need to carry loads of things with them, from makeup to wardrobe and beyond.

The great thing about Drilley’s eco totes is that they can carry extra loads. The brand uses industrial grade canvas, which is several times stronger than normal canvas. The Earth Eco Bag, the model that each contestant received, is a large shoulder-type bag with long handles that make it easy to carry. If you needed, you could really pack it. You’d only have to worry about carrying it yourself, not it breaking!

Still, once the cameras are rolling, nobody wants to see someone struggling with a huge bag full of stuff. And  yet, they’d certainly need to bring some things along for the various outings, appearances, endorsements, and other requirements of the show. Why bother taking a new bag, though, when you have a Drilley’s?

The natural cream canvas shines through in the bags, complemented by Drilley’s looping logo in a variety of colors. It’s casual, fun, and yet still sophisticated. It doesn’t look out of place at all with these very fashionable women, and that’s definitely saying something for “just” an eco tote!

This original color is bright and warm, however, if you’re looking for something more somber, Drilley’s does offer a few darker colors.

What they all share is the same toughness. It’s scuff resistant and water resistant, which means that these bags really can take anything you throw at them. Much like, we imagine, the tough and beautiful women competing on the Miss Korea competition.

Imagine looking from the top of the Great Pyramid of Giza, appreciating the picturesque landscape, and pondering the secrets that lie within each pyramid. This is just one scenario that reflects the life of the licensed pilot and modern-day adventurer Barry Billcliff.

From navigating the skies as a pilot to starting epic expeditions and immersing himself in live music events, Billcliff’s journey is anything but ordinary. With all his daring feats and ventures, what drives him to scale ancient wonders and create in industries as vibrant as construction and music?

Billcliff’s Adventures on a Global Scale

Billcliff’s interest in adventure is reflected in his ambitious escapades. From climbing the top of the Great Pyramid of Giza and the majestic Eiffel Tower, encountering the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) after a Hollywood sign stunt, exploring India with his son using his motorcycle, visiting the Galapagos Islands, breaking into the Sydney Opera House, and as random as dressing as a gladiator, Billcliff is unstoppable in the level of thrilling experiences he wants.

When asked why he does this, Billcliff’s answer was straightforward: “I want to be different in ways people can’t imagine or can comprehend as possible. To achieve this, I know I must be fearless, and these adventures push me to be just like that and more.”

Still An Ordinary Man

Besides being adventurous, Billcliff maintains a daily routine emphasizing growth and continuous learning. On a typical day, he works in the construction industry, enhancing efficiency and sustainability in building practices and even utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline processes.

From construction, his afternoons are spent at the gym he co-owns, where he works out and engages with a community that shares his passion for health and wellness. At night, he becomes a music promoter, channeling his creativity to assist bands with production.

Billcliff also shares that he applies the lessons from his global stunts to his writing, creating stories that offer readers a glimpse into his memorable experiences. He mentions, “I want to show the world that one can live an extraordinary life while remaining relatable and dedicated to lifelong learning. Adventurers have a place in the everyday world.”

Now a licensed pilot after passing the recent Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) pilot exam, Billcliff is exploring his career in flying and is excited about how this can elevate his future trips.

Billcliff and the Realities of Life

Like any story, struggles and challenges lie on the flip side of Billcliff’s exhilarating adventures. Billcliff shares that not all his ventures unfold smoothly; they occasionally place him in precarious situations and even on the verge of death.  

Beyond global escapades, Billcliff’s life has also been marked by legal controversies. In 2005, he made headlines after claiming to have discovered antique banknotes valued at $125,000 during a roofing job in Newbury, Massachusetts. 

The discovery sparked media attention, leading to charges against Billcliff and three others: Timothy Crebase, Kevin Kozak, and Matt Ingham. However, the case collapsed twice due to a lack of probable cause, with prosecutors ultimately dismissing all charges. The currency was returned to Billcliff, but has never been sold or seen in the marketplace; its fate remains a mystery. 

A separate legal storm brewed around Merrimack Valley Roofing, a company linked to Billcliff, which faced a $150,000 OSHA fine. Investigations later revealed the penalty stemmed from a retaliatory dispute between Billcliff and OSHA agent Brett Buzzle. Crucially, appeals proved Billcliff had no ownership stake in the company at the time, leading to the fine’s overturning. Notably, Billcliff has never been convicted of any felonies.

Instead of being swayed by these setbacks, Billcliff embraces them as opportunities for growth and uses them to gain fresh perspectives. His resilience shines through in how he transforms failures into comebacks, with lessons learned from each challenge informing his subsequent ventures. This pursuit of growth and success, combined with his fighting spirit, makes him an asset in every field.
