Two Action-Packed Days In The City By The Bay

This is an exciting post for the blog since it’s my very first one covering a West Coast city! The last time I was in the Bay Area was in 2012 (before I was 21, I might add), so when I found $300 last-minute tickets from Mexico City to San Francisco, I couldn’t resist...

48 Hours In Panamá, A Shimmering City With An Old Soul

The past month or so has been filled with some truly amazing weekend trips! Since moving to Mexico in July, I’ve taken five weekend trips (without taking a Friday or Monday off), and for my sixth, I decided to check out the capital of Panama.

Another Beautiful Mountain City: Monterrey, Nuevo León, MX

After going to Colombia and having a blast in the beautiful city of Medellín last weekend, I figured that this weekend’s trip to Monterrey would be fairly low-key. On the contrary, I discovered another awesome city with its own unique culture...

Medellín, Colombia: A Metropolis In The Mountains

About a month ago, I decided to do something kind of crazy and booked a two-day weekend trip to another continent! I came back to work exhausted on Monday thanks to a red-eye flight, but it was totally worth it: I can finally say I’ve been to South America, and I was totally blown away...

Stay In Oaxaca’s “Hidden Port” On The Pacific For $25 a Night

Beaches, sand, and surf are probably not the first things that come to mind when most people picture Oaxaca. But those are the main attractions in Puerto Escondido (i.e., Hidden Port), a town on the state’s Pacific coast that attracts dedicated surfers and beach bums from around the world. I spent this past weekend exploring...

The North Carolina Outer Banks: A Road Trip Illuminated By Lighthouses

I love geographically unique places. If you ask me how I choose my travel destinations, there are a number of obvious answers: cost, feasibility, whether friends want to go along, etc. But geography is another huge factor for me, especially for solo trips.

Nashville Is Awesome Even If You’re Not a Country Music Aficionado!

A friend from high school and I went and discovered an up-and-coming city where we could relax, decompress, and have a good time...
