Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of locks of love in Paris. Stretching across the Seine, the Pont des Arts has become known as one of the most romantic locations in Paris. Not because the views are spectacular or the bridge has some special story behind it, […]
Traveling from city to city is great, but as most of you probably know by now, that’s totally not my typical travel style. As a lover of culture and language, I really prefer slower travel; the type of travel that forces you to see and do things as a local would. Living like a local is […]
Maybe I should have titled this “Why I Hate First-World Countries that Don’t have Wifi” or “Why I’ll Never Arrive in a Country at Night Again” or even something taking a jab at Parisians for being unhelpful. I’ll probably never learn, but remind me not to stop arriving in foreign countries after dark when everything is […]
This week we would like to introduce Lindsay of Frugal Frolicker. Lindsay is a travel blogger and wedding photographer currently based in New York City. She has lived in Sydney, trekked to Everest Base Camp, backpacked extensively through Southeast Asia – and has a penchant for affordable outdoor travel adventures. Lindsay loves epic hikes and bike rides, coffee crawling her way through new […]
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 […]
This week we would like to introduce Marysia Maciocha of My Travel Affairs. Marysia is a traveler by heart, a jet setter. She dedicates her time and energy to unconventional explorations around the world in search of amazing people, unique places and immersing stores– just wait until you hear some of them! 1. What inspires you to travel, […]
This week we would like to introduce Jenny Marshall of A Things for Wor(l)ds. Jenny is a language and culture fanatic. She’s based in Spain where she teaches English to rowdy middle-schoolers and attempts that sexy Spanish lisp. She can’t decide which is more fun, travel or grammar, so she frequently jaunts around Europe and picks up cool new words […]
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 […]
Today I’m celebrating my 25th birthday…in Costa Rica! That’s right, just this past weekend we flew to a whole new region of the world for both of us: Central America. We’ll be spending at least a month traveling overland from country to country. This is the first trip I’ve taken where I have no set […]
Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of a perfectly pink Paris. Our first attempt to witness the Eiffel Tower sparkling in the dark was a bust. We didn’t think we could make it even to sunset, but I’m glad we chose that day to try. As the […]
