Welcome
EXPLORE THE WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF THIS NEW YORK NATIVE AS SHE SHARES TRAVEL RELATED TIPS FROM PENNY-PINCHING DEALS, PACKING AND ISLAND HOPPING.
“...there aren’t the words to express what travel does for me. That being said, I hope to encourage you to travel to find the words I cannot.”
Through this travel log, I plan to journal my experiences with the local people and culture inluding attractions, restaurants and the nightlife scene. (Tangent: I can't wait to tell you about the places I've been to, like this club in Madrid with 7 floors and a DJ for each!) Doing the must do's of the city as well as experiencing as the locals do. Being a tourist is half the fun but a real traveler gets in on the native action. Lastly, share travel hacks and ideas- Ingenuity at its finest. On the road, you're likely to turn into a kind of MacGyver when you have no choice but to keep the show on the road! "One thing to remember about an adventure is that if it turns out the way you expect it to, it has not been an adventure at all."
Some of my best memories have occurred hundreds of miles out of my comfort zone. I have shared an umbrella with strangers on the Spanish Steps of Rome. I've locked eyes with a Parisian in Barceloneta, been drenched in rain in Oia, Santorini before its most infamous sunset. I’ve been high off the altitude in Sacred Valley, Cuzco. I've come to learn the same universal language Santiago discovered in his journey to Tarifa and to the Pyramids and nonetheless, there aren't the words to express what travel does for me. That being said, I hope to encourage you to travel to find the words I cannot.
