LONDON THROUGH THE LENS

LONDON THROUGH THE LENS

Despite spending only one night there, I still somehow managed to walk away with nearly 2,000 London photos! A city I thought would be too similar to the US, well, let’s just say it’s not that similar at all. I found myself going crazy pointing my camera every which way as we rode through it a top […]

TRAVEL TUESDAYS: INTERVIEW WITH JENNY OF A THING FOR WOR(L)DS

GENERATOR LONDON: SPENDING A NIGHT IN LONDON’S HIPPEST HOSTEL

GENERATOR LONDON: SPENDING A NIGHT IN LONDON’S HIPPEST HOSTEL

Let’s face it. London is one of the world’s leading cities, and it’s also one of the most expensive. Actually, I always thought Hong Kong was the most expensive city (and it is based on real estate), but recently The Telegraph declared London as the most expensive city to actually live in. So I take that back– London […]

FOTO FRIDAY: STEPPING BACK THROUGH TIME IN ASAKUSA

Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of stepping back through time in Asakusa, Japan. Asakusa is the center of Tokyo’s shitamachi, or “low city”. Named for its lack of tall buildings, for centuries it was the entertainment center of Tokyo. Filled with large kabuki theaters and geisha shuffling […]

Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of the Changing the Guard ceremony in London. Each day thousands of people flock to Buckingham Palace in order to catch a glimpse of the famous Changing the Guard ceremony. Chances are, unless you secured a spot at the palace […]

DISNEYLAND PARIS IS NOT VERY FRENCH!

DISNEYLAND PARIS IS NOT VERY FRENCH!

After visiting Disney theme parks in North America (US) and Asia (Hong Kong and Japan) there was only one continent I had yet to conquer: Europe. Thanks to Viator, this, of course, was quickly resolved as our first day in France was spent at–you guessed it– Disneyland Paris. Even after being kept up until 4am, I still woke […]
