The Path of the Gods in the Amalfi Coast, or Sentiero degli Dei, is consistently cited as one of the most breathtaking hikes in the world. But as I stood in Positano, looking up at the towering cliffs, I had to wonder, is hiking the Path of the Gods worth it? And more importantly, how […]
Planning a trip to the Amalfi Coast almost certainly means one thing: a splurge-worthy beach day. And in Positano, all signs (and Instagram feeds) point to the iconic orange umbrellas at the famous Arienzo Beach Club. But is Arienzo Beach Club really worth it? I visited with my cousins and some friends to celebrate a […]
After an introduction to Slovenia in Ljubljana, a four-day hiking adventure at Triglav and a short stint at Lake Bled, I was ready for an even slower pace… and some wine. Goriska Brda is the perfect place for that. The takeaway: If you’re looking for the “Tuscany of Slovenia” without Italian crowds (or prices), this […]
I visited Lake Bled with friends immediately after hiking Triglav in early July. I’ll be honest: I worried one day wouldn’t be enough to see it all. The takeaway: One day is actually the perfect amount of time. Since the “to-do” list isn’t overwhelming, it’s the ideal spot for a slow-travel reset after a high-energy […]

I don’t know about you, but I eat pizza at least once a week. A week without pizza is almost as bad as a week without sunshine – and we get a lot of those in Amsterdam. Lucky for me, rain or shine, this city has plenty of delicious pizza. As a local, I’ve done the […]
Pretty much every climber who visits Kalymnos will make their way over to Telendos at some point. Telendos was separated from Kalymnos during an earthquake in 554 AD. Now, a small channel separates Telendos from Kalymnos. The majestic mountainous island is one of the hallmark characteristics of Kalymnos and it’d be a shame not to […]
If you’re new to outdoor climbing, and planning a trip to Kalymnos, Greece – you’ve come to the right spot. Not to worry, there are plenty of beginner climbing spots in Kalymnos. Whether you’re simply looking for easier routes to get your sea legs back, it’s your first ever outdoor climbing trip, or you just […]
Wondering what to pack for Kalymnos? Here’s a complete packing list for climbers, catered for women. The packing list is geared towards single pitch climbers in the spring or fall season. I find spring to be the best time to climb in Kalymnos. The days are longer and the air isn’t quite as crisp as […]
Paris, the most romantic city on earth. On my latest Paris trip with the girls, I decided to slow down a bit and sip up the stunning views at the Luxembourg Gardens and the Eiffel Tower with my new travel tea pot—and a friend in tow. This is how to brew up the most perfect […]
