After 6 long years, I am finally back on my way to Hawaii with Tony. I can’t believe it’s been so long since leaving LA and, in consequence, leaving the beautiful 24-hour layovers in Hawaii. My favorite then was Lihue (Kauai), but Maui is Tony’s favorite, as well as another dear friend of mine. I’mContinue reading “Maui Bound”

Our next adventure takes us to Dublin! I can’t wait for a fresh Guinness! Haha As we’re getting ready to leave the hotel, the elevator doors open, and we see my friend, Josie, getting ready to head up the elevator we were getting out of! We had no idea the other would be in DublinContinue reading “Dublin with Heather :)”

Heather and I are back it! And this time we’re set to explore Lisbon! 🤗 The timing of this trip was a bit different, and we were slotted to arrive around 11am. We had a nice bit of a delay on deplaning, so we got to the hotel around noon or just after. And ofContinue reading “24 Hours in Lisboa”

It’s here! The first work trip that I have brought somebody with me! Hehe. Heather is super excited to join me, and I can’t wait to see all that we accomplish together! Heather is a super planner and has a mental map of Amsterdam already, and basically has our entire day planned for sightseeing. Perfect! Continue reading “A Day in Amsterdam :)”

Friday: 1:30 AM wake-up call. Yep. The story of the “non-rev” life: aiming for the first flight of the day, and if not, having all day to make hopeful attempts for any and all subsequent flights. This would be my friend Heather’s first time traveling standby, and first time to New Orleans! So, not evenContinue reading “A Weekend in New Orleans”

The next day would be a sailing day, as we made our way up the Nile towards our final destination: Luxor. Though, we did have one stop scheduled along the way: the incredible Edfu Temple. Our cruise ships docked, and we wove our way between several ships before exiting onto the pier. Our guide carefullyContinue reading “Egypt Part IV”

The next morning, we had an early flight from Cairo to Aswan, a city in southern Egypt. Our first stop was the huge Aswan High Dam, which was built along the Nile. The construction of the dam created one of the largest man-made reservoirs, Lake Nasser. This project was completed with help from the Russians,Continue reading “Egypt Part III”

After two nights in Cairo, we hit the ground running to a desert adventure! We were picked up early for a 5 hour drive out into the middle of the desert, where we would spend the next 24 hours. Our guide, Mohammed, would become our driver, desert expert, sandboarding guru, and chef extradoinaire. We metContinue reading “Egypt Part II”

First trip post covid = a whirlwind 10 days in Egypt! My friend Jaimee and I decided to travel somewhere together as is our tradition. We’ve visited Prague and Rome, and we met up in Hawaii, and now we had to decide our next destination. As usual, we threw around several ideas, but we eventuallyContinue reading “Egypt: Part I”

Well, it’s officially over, my first full month of traveling! I suppose it’s just shy of a month, but who’s counting? Hehe. For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to travel and see different parts of the world, and to someday be a “backpacker.” I never knew how to make it work,Continue reading “Post Travel Reflection”
