Looking for Aurora
The lights, not the Disney princess (nobody wants to find her, she’s the most useless one). I’m already loving this journey and I haven’t even gotten to the airport yet. The plan: 2.15 hours of daylight- less when you count the sun doing its thing LOL I booked my first non-direct flight within Europe because…

Moving to Cambridge, UK
You may have read (most likely didn’t, I have 2 followers) how I travelled to Cambridge, England from Vancouver, Canada during Covid. I’ve had better times in my life, but I was on a plane for the first time in 18 months so that must count for something. Accommodation I found my private accommodation through…

How to get the most out of Venice Carnival
IT’S CARNIVAL! I assume everyone read that in an uplifting Dr. Nick Simpson’s- esque tone. If not, you don’t know what you’re missing. Venice Carnival- the dates change every year but expect a two-week festival very late into January and into mid-February. Festivals don’t get much better than this. Elaborate Venetian costumes with the perfect…

Honeymoon With My Ex
In the summer of 2019, we ended up planning the perfect honeymoon to Italy for two people who weren’t dating anymore. Sometimes, we knowingly make silly decisions. Lake Como, Cinque Terre, Tuscany, San Marino, Tivoli and Amalfi Coast. Such a perfect itinerary, you’re welcome to use it, regardless of your relationship status. Lake Como We…

My first trip abroad without the folks or teachers was to Greece at 18 with my bestie.…

Southern France Fresh
I scooted down to France for a little 10 day adventure. My train trip was as follows: City of Love Nothing makes you hate hand holding more than being single in the City of Love. However, I was re-reading Harry Potter so I was guaranteed to have a good time. So I did. I took…

Espana
This is way late. Two years and four months too late but for uni I went on an exchange to Cordoba, Spain and I saw some things. Malaga I flew into Malaga with my mother. What a delight she is travelling, like a toddler but with a more diverse vocabulary. Eats: Bar Mercado Atarazanas in…

Malta, it ain’t your falta
Malta, Malta, Malta. You sly fox, I almost didn’t see you there tucked down near northern Africa. You’re so small, I had sea views from the balcony of my hotel which was situated in the centre of the island. True story. When you first strut up to the capital Valletta you realise that the entire…

Phuket All
Phuket Airport is in the North of Phuket peninsula, which is mildly inconvenient if your hostel is in Kata like mine was. The same goes if you stay in Pah Tong or Karon. I read online that you could take a taxi for 800 baht (including a 100 baht airport tax), which takes about an…
