Oaxaca is easily one of my favorite places in Mexico. But don’t get me wrong. It’s also great to get out of the city and see the surrounding areas. On my trip to Oaxaca in 2018, my friend and I decided to do a day…

I’m always really excited to visit a place that I know nothing about.  Belfast, Northern Ireland, is one of those places.  When you look up Belfast and tourism, two things are sure to come up: I can confidently say that Titanic Belfast is arguably the BEST…

In Scotland, there is no such thing as bad weatherโ€ฆonly the wrong clothes. Billy Connolly, Scottish actor and comedian. I must be the luckiest gal alive to be in Europe during the freak “Beast from the East” winter storm.  Snow in Edinburgh crippling the whole city,…

I had about 36 hours in Jerusalem, with the first 18 or so hours during the Sabbath (the Jewish day of prayer).ย  So my options for activities and food were limited, to say the least.ย  But, following on advice from The Points Guy, and I…
