When most people think of Greece, they think of the Greek IslandsโMykonos, Crete, Santorini. They think of white houses with blue shutters on a hilltop, a sunset in the background. And it’s truly beautiful. But, if all you see are the islands when visiting, you’re missing out on all the amazing things to do on […]
At this point in time, most of us are bored with the dreary weather. And I’m not sure about you, but all I want to do is snuggle up under my duvet with my rescue furbies and hibernate. (Second to packing my stuff and flying to the tropics.) What better time, though, to throw on […]
Global Debauchery in Ireland & Northern Ireland Ireland and Northern Ireland hold a special place in my heart. Iโd already spent most of my childhood traveling, but this trip was among the first international ventures I embarked upon as an adult.

Our flight was scheduled midday. I tend to book flights earlier and then I feel all rushed in the mornings, […]
Visiting Tian Tan Buddha Today and tomorrow, we’ll be touring Hong Kong and Macau. And today is Tian Tan Buddha day! It was indeed a long metro day and we were a little concerned about lines when we learned Easter Monday is a public holiday in Hong Kong, but all went well. Lantau Island Tian […]
