I attempted two difficult water sports while in the Dominican Republic – kite-surfing and surfing. I’m not sure which one I failed more at, but I didn’t get either one right. Regardless of my failures, I tried, and that’s always the goal, to try, whether or not I might fail. Regardless of my level of expertiseContinue reading “Chasing the Surf in Cabarete, DR”
Wanderlust Wednesday #11
Hello everyone, Sending happy mid-week vibes to you wherever you are in the world. Today’s post format will be a bit different as I’m dreaming of a different kind of trip. The kind that you take with people that rarely get on your nerves. A road trip. Oh, who am I kidding? Chances are, theContinue reading “Wanderlust Wednesday #11”
A Weekend in Mexico’s Riviera Maya
In November of 2015, my friend Mofi & I flew into Cancun’s international airport from two different cities, and into two different terminals. There was some miscommunication prior to our departure. And, to make matters worse, neither of us had phone service. The result? Two confused girls in an unfamiliar country frantically searching for eachContinue reading “A Weekend in Mexico’s Riviera Maya”
Wanderlust Wednesday #10
Hello everyone, Sending happy mid-week vibes to you wherever you are in the world. A few years ago, I had the opportunity to volunteer with an amazing organization and group of people -International Student Volunteers- in the Dominican Republic. These were honestly the best 5 weeks of my entire year, and I’d do it allContinue reading “Wanderlust Wednesday #10”
Bimini Blues
Do you ever find yourself looking through your photos, 2 weeks post-vacation, thinking “take me back here”? This is me with every trip, and I like to relive them through my pictures. Sometimes I’ll -without warning- bombard my travel buddies with pictures, accompanied with a caption that says “let’s plan another trip” or “take meContinue reading “Bimini Blues”
Wanderlust Wednesday #9
Hello everyone, Sending happy mid-week vibes to you all wherever you are in the world. Today, I’m thinking of taking a trip to what I consider to be one of the most romantic cities in Europe; Amsterdam. As kids, my siblings and I flew through Amsterdam almost every year to get to Miami. It was soContinue reading “Wanderlust Wednesday #9”
“The Happiest Place on Earth”: Part 2
Yes, we made it to another Friday. Thank God. 7 apologies for the late arrival of this post; last week was a rough one. It’s the second and final post for this Disney series and I’ve started thinking to myself that it might be nice to visit Epcot one more time before the festival isContinue reading ““The Happiest Place on Earth”: Part 2″
Wanderlust Wednesday #8
Hello! I’m still here and pleased to be back at writing for you all. Although I look forward to it, last week was rough and I found myself unable to create for a few days. Hence, the week-long hiatus. Now Wanderlust Wednesday is back, and this week I’m dreaming of exploring a place that IContinue reading “Wanderlust Wednesday #8”
“The Happiest Place on Earth” : Part 1
Hello everyone & happy Friday, Whether or not you’re a fan of Disney world, land, movies, toys… you’ve probably heard the phrase “the happiest place on earth“. In case you haven’t, it’s the tagline used for Disney parks all around the world; and I wholeheartedly agree with it. 😄 Eventually, I’d like to visit all theContinue reading ““The Happiest Place on Earth” : Part 1″
Wanderlust Wednesday #7
Hi there & happy Wednesday, When I was really young, I thought Iceland was equivalent to Antartica; just ice, snow and more ice. Now don’t get me wrong, the island has ice and snow but it’s no Antartica. A lot has changed since I was younger – in terms of knowledge – and recently I’veContinue reading “Wanderlust Wednesday #7”
