Practicing Self Care + Managing Mental Health at Home

I know as much as anyone that it can be difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel. We hear conflicting reports in the media & dwell on numbers because there’s seemingly nothing else to do, but using the coping mechanisms above & starting each day with a positive affirmation (as hippy-dippy as that may sound) has made a huge difference in my anxiety levels already.

CM Translator Review | Traveling with a Pocket Translator

Traveling with technology is an interesting thing. When I first began my adventures back in 2009 very few travelers carried any technology with them at all. On my first trip to Thailand I have very vivid memories of popping Thai Baht into the computers at internet cafes just to get 15 minutes of dial-up time. This was only ten years ago, but as you know world travel has changed drastically even since then.

5 Reasons You May Prefer Group Travel

5 Reasons You May Prefer Group Travel

Traveling the world is an amazing thing! There is no better feeling (in my opinion) than stepping out of the airport in a brand new destination & being welcomed by new sights & sounds. More often though, I find myself hopping into business mode; find a taxi, barter a price, locate the hotel, where should I eat? etc., & before I know it that feeling is gone. Group travel makes all of these things easy & allows you to make the most of each moment without having to worry about the logistics of where to go next, how to get there & how not to get ripped off. If you are a traveler (or soon-to-be traveler) who has never experienced travel as a group, here are a few reasons why you should try it out!

New Years Resolutions | How To Make Your Travel Dream A Reality

Every wanderlust dreams of their first, next, or most wanted adventure abroad. Before I started my seemingly never-ending adventures in travel I remember sitting in front of my laptop at night & making lists of all the places that I would go if I had the time or the money to get there. I would tell myself that this year was the year & then, inevitably, that next year would be the year, year after year until my restless legs just couldn't take it anymore.

"Good service" will always be defined differently depending on who you ask. Some travelers consider good service to be good meals, complimentary wine, or simply the ability to get you to your destination on time. 

Is Street Food Safe?

Is Street Food Safe?

Websites boasting 'Eat The Streets' posts will tell you where to get your fix of local cuisine anywhere you want to go, but some locations are, no doubt, questioned more than others. While very few of us think twice about grabbing a hot-dog after the bar from a street stand in the States, so many travelers are warned time & time again to NEVER eat the street food in Thailand, Vietnam, Costa Rica, Bolivia .. you name it. But why? Is there any rhyme or reason to these warnings?
