Two Days in Amsterdam

If you’re reading this post because you’re headed to Amsterdam, I’m jealous. What an AMAZING City! Although I wanted to stay longer, we were able to see and do a lot in just two days.

Travel Guide: Skiing in Les Arcs, France

“Ain’t no Mountain High Enough…” especially when it comes to skiing or snowboarding. I love skiing in new regions and have recently declared a new goal to ski (or hike) the Alps in every country! So, now that I’m living in London it was a no brainer to head to the French Alps. However- I […]

Travel Guide: Ireland

Ireland was never a high priority on my bucket list of travel destinations; mainly because of the weather… yet ironically, I had the opportunity to go TWICE within a year.

Travel Guide: Positano, Italy

John Steinbeck once said, “Positano bites deep. It is a dream place that isn’t quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone.” Honestly I couldn’t agree more. From the first glance at Positano , you will have to pinch yourself to make sure you’re not actually dreaming and have […]

Are pizza and mafia the only two associations you get when thinking of Napoli? Do not worry, you’re not the only one.

Travel Guide: Iceland

Travel Guide: Iceland

Let start off by saying that I travelled to Europe for the first time as a broke and basic 20-year-old, via Icelandair’s stopover program.
