Heading to Brasov I contacted the local branch of Urban Adventures. I have worked with them in Philly and also numerous times in New York. I have never been on a tour I didn’t enjoy with them. They use local guides and give you unique experiences. They show you things you might not find on…
2016 was really good to me but is ending on a sad note. This was the first year I really thought I might be able to become a digital nomad. A goal that until a two years ago I didn’t think was possible for me.
I consider myself a bit of a frequent flyer. I am in an airport somewhere around 8 times a year, which is more than most people but less than some. I now expect certain things from an airline, especially when I am traveling internationally. I have flown on some pretty great airlines and some pretty…
This year has flown by. Looking ahead I see the same thing happening again. I both love and hate it. It is exhilarating to have so much to look forward to but also makes you want to be able to reach out and hold onto something.
Over the past 10 years travel has become a consistent part of my life. I am so used to being on the go that when I am home for long periods of time I often feel out of sorts. I itch to plan my next trip and I always yearn to be somewhere I am…

Every time I go abroad people act surprised when I tell them I will be staying at a hostel. They ask me if they are safe or how I know they aren’t dirty. I realize that too many people have watched the movie Hostel and consider that real life.
In November I was set to go to Turkey with three friends from home. Last minute I decided to make a detour to the World Travel Market in London. Which meant that I had to change my flights and not go with all of them. One of the other girls I was going with had…
The world is not as dangerous as you think. Of course if you watch the news you might believe otherwise. I try not to pay too much attention to the media when it comes to ,well, pretty much anything. Most places are not nearly as scary as they try to make it out to be….
If you’re going to Europe or anywhere for that matter. One of the cheapest and best ways to do it is to backpack. You live a little less luxuriously but when you want to see all the world has to offer spending untold amounts on hotel rooms doesn’t seem worth it. I mean how much…
I have never had a guest poster before. I was approached by Holiday Lettings to put an post up that I felt fit my readership. I was excited to try something different and this article is perfect for my new found love of solo travel! Hope you enjoy it.
