Chances are, you’ve heard about the infamous Yacht Week in Croatia by now. Or at least you’ve seen the pictures. You know, the photos with a bunch of Yachts tied up in a circle in the middle of bright blue water, or the ones of a giant party on donut and flamingo-shaped rafts.

Keep … Read more

While visiting Manchester, I realized that I was only a few hours from Wales, and from one of the most sought after waterfalls: Pistyll Rhaeadr.

As steep and rocky as it may seem, hiking to Kjerag isn’t that scary. What is scary? Getting to the end of it and stepping onto Kjeragbolten, a small boulder wedged between two high rock faces with a 3,228 foot drop that would blow your body into smithereens. And yes, that part of hiking … Read more
My obsession with hiking Trolltunga began a few years ago, when I came across a picture on Pinterest and thought it was possibly the most beautiful spot I’d ever seen. A few months later, I would meet a Norwegian girl in Key West and inform her that I wanted to go to Norway to see … Read more
At first glace, I chose the Astor Hostel Hyde Park because it is located inside a Victorian Town House in Kensington. For those of you that don’t know the neighborhoods of London, Kensington is a ritzy area, and in particular an area I would not usually stay in: old-world Victorian buildings mixed in with artisan cheese shops, pastry … Read more

When I first booked my trip to Poland, I thought I would spend my 3 days in Krakow eating pierogies and partying. I’ll be honest and admit that I planned my trip based on the food and the bar scene.

Walking around the Prague is comparable to being in a fairytale: except for one minor detail: it’s real. Truth be told, I wouldn’t mind spending a couple months in Prague, but if you only have one day in Prague, here’s how you want to spend it. Start your morning by grabbing something to eat … Read more
London is expensive. AND it’s even more expensive since they are using the pound, which is currently 1.5x the amount of the dollar. If that doesn’t sound like a lot to you, imagine paying $80 for a cab (that alone is crazy) and then seeing it as $121 on your credit card bill. That being said, here are … Read more
Your 20’s are your selfish years. Old enough to make the right decisions and young enough to make the wrong ones. Be selfish with your time – travel, explore, fall in and out of love, be ridiculous and silly, stupid and wild. How do I narrow down the whole entire world into 12 of the … Read more
