It has been many years since my last blog post. A lot has happened in my life, but I suppose the main thing is I lost my father. He was my best friend, the person that understood me completely, probably because we were so similar. He was always my biggest fan in everything I did, and this blog was no […]
I did it! I have completed 3 weeks of no social media, no texting, a clean diet, and no television. It has been a short journey with many ups and downs but so rewarding. Turning the television off forced me to have to think about my life, its direction and most of all start coping with the loss of my […]
I am addicted to traveling. Before one journey ends I am already thinking of the next. Isn’t that part of addiction? Constantly thinking about that next high, the next time you will experience that feeling and trying to figure out how to make it happen as quickly as possible. One of the most common questions I get from people is, […]
There is nothing like the beauty of traveling; exploring the world, feeling free and independent, feeling that anything is possible. These are feelings of euphoria, total bliss, weightlessness. But there is also nothing like the come down that follows. It is as though I am snatched from a beautiful dream, and placed in some world, some strange reality where I never feel […]
I am still in Cambodia, happy as can be. I woke up this morning feeling rather sleepy and lazy. Basically the only thing I wanted was to nap in my comfy hotel room. What more does a girl need but a queen sized bed, freezing cold AC, and 4 big pillows (I use all of them). I spent my day […]
As I sit along a calm Thai beach left in the company of my thoughts I have decided to erase the word BORED or BORING from my vocabulary. I find no use for it, and I really don’t believe there is such a thing as being bored. Life is so wonderful, the natural world around is so amazing and exciting that how can […]
Oh boy, this is not a post I ever wanted to write or thought I would be writing. So today was my big day, I was going to fly from Florida to India and spend three and a half months exploring Asia. I packed, I printed my itinerary, passport in hand and headed to the airport with my mom and […]
I went to Malawi with 2 other people as part of a graduate school internship, invited by and partnering with the Malawi Bureau of Tourism. We arrived in the town of Liwonde and were introduced to a local named Gilbert. Gilbert was our guide and was also there to help us connect to other individuals and businesses that could help […]
I was in Malawi, Africa for a month and I fell deeply in love with it. Malawi holds a very special place in my heart and memory. Nothing is truer than what you hear and read about Malawi, that “It is the warm heart of Africa” The people are kind and generous. The landscapes vary from mountains to Savannah, and […]
I am beginning to prepare for my next big trip (India, Thailand and other points unknown yet). Part of that preparation is to check visa information, weather conditions, shots and/or medications I may need for all the possible locations. Then I make a list of what items I am going to take (packing tips coming soon), and most importantly for my […]
