Strange Massages in Cambodia

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 […]

India Itinerary

It is my last day in India and it is bittersweet. Actually if I am honest with myself it is bitter. I have grown to have an unhealthy love affair with India. One moment I want to scream at a tuk tuk for almost running me over or honking the horn a million times, and the next I am admiring […]

The B Word

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 […]

Each day here is filled with so many ups and downs, which is why I […]

Liwonde National Park, my dangerous ride

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 […]

Liwonde, Malawi

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 […]

My Travel Playlist

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 […]
