1 Day in Edinburgh

February 21, 2024No Comments
Streets in Edinburgh

Edinburgh has been at the top of my places to visit in the UK list for a while now. When I heard my cousin would be studying abroad in Glasgow, I knew I needed to make the trip and spend 1 day in Edinburgh. Getting to Edinburgh from Glasgow I joined a bunch of my […]

Fish & Chips at The University Cafe Glasgow

February 12, 2024No Comments
Behind the counter at the University Cafe, 2 men

The fish & chips at The University Cafe came highly recommended by the late Anthony Bourdain. So of course, while in Glasgow, we had to stop in. The aptly named University Cafe, is located just a street away from the University of Glasgow. The University is indeed one of the most picturesque campuses I’ve seen […]

The best Sunday Roast in Glasgow | Chateau-X

February 8, 2024No Comments
The beautiful Sunday Roast at Chateau X, a plate of meat, yorkshire pudding and a separate plate of sides and cauliflower

I first visited Glasgow in 2016. At that time, I left feeling underwhelmed by Scottish cuisine. I never thought I’d be back in Glasgow, but when my cousin said she was studying abroad, I knew I’d have to join the party. One of the highlights of our cousin weekend was the Sunday Roast at Chateau-X. […]

What it’s really like to visit Edinburgh Chihuahua Cafe

October 8, 2023No Comments
My cousin and I at the Chihuahua Cafe in Edinburgh with all the chihuahuas posed on our laps

This is certainly something I never thought I’d do, but I did it. I went to Edinburgh Chihuahua Cafe and yes, I had a pretty good time. This may very well be one of the strangest travel experiences I’ve had, and I’ve been to some weird places. Like this cave full of penises in Thailand. […]

The perfectly strange but somehow it works, Japanese meets Lebanese bento lunch in Paris. I tried to stop by @mokonutsbakery without a reservation. Not happening, but lucky for me, the friendly owner directed me a few doors down to @mokochaya where they were just beginning their lunch service. Last weekend, I visited my friend’s new bar, food hall, club and most importantly social hub of Versailles, Sept Lieux. Sept Lieux is just a few steps from the famous Chateau de Versailles, housed in an unassuming building and former post office. They first opened in 2024 just in time for the Olympics, and this summer the fun is heating up. Stop and smell the roses my friends. 🌹Are you ready for King’s Day? Ps it’s on the 26th this year - don’t get caught by surprise. And yes, Amsterdam is about to look just like this. 😮 👑 🍊 🇳🇱 Tulips in Rhode Island. Should I move back home? #wickedtulips #wickedtulipsflowerfarm #rhodeislandlife #easterHiking Acatenango and Fuego volcanoes in Guatemala was one of the best experiences I had last year. Being this close to an active volcano, mind blowing. 🤯 Maybe a trip to the mountains doesn’t solve all your problems, but it certainly makes them feel small. Reminiscing with# some footage. Read the full experience over on my blog, link in profile. Last February I went snorkeling and diving in Belize. We visited Hopkins and Caye Caulker and went snorkeling and diving with a few different companies. Caye Caulker was the clear winner! Amsterdam Light Festival 2024. Edition 13, theme rituals is lit until January 19th. Walk, bike or cruise ✨We visited the little Christmas Market at the Tofta Manor just outside of Gothenburg, Sweden. How cute and cozy and freezing it was. Christmas gifts, local goods, crafts and even pony rides for the tots. 🧑‍🎄
