About 2 years ago I traveled to Iceland, one of the most beautiful countries in the world, to celebrate my birthday! The challenge? To explore it as much as possible in just 3 days! Yes, since I only had that amount of time available for the trip, and Reykjavik was less than 6 hours (by […]
Chiang Mai was one of the coolest stops in my one-month-long trip to Asia. I only spent two days there (click HERE to watch the highlights of my trip on my Youtube channel) and I could’ve stayed at least three more to make the most out of every corner. On today’s post, I’ll share some […]
Bonjour! If you follow me on Instagram you might know that I recently came back from Vancouver, a place that has been on my mind for years! Unfortunately I only had less than two days to explore one of Canada’s largest and most beautiful cities. 2 days are not enough for sure but choosing the […]
Amazing Thailand… yes, I was told and it was true! And I’m glad that I chose the right place to stay in Bangkok to start my solo adventure in the city. The Shangri-La Hotel is situated on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, less than 5 minutes walking to the metro station, in the […]

In 2016, I had the pleasure of exploring the dream destination of many fellow travelers, Alaska. And as soon as I arrived, I understood why: it’s absolutely gorgeous! From glaciers and national parks to mountains and a diverse wildlife, Alaska certainly exceeded my expectations. And since my mom and I recently visited the state again, […]
I originally wrote this list in 2016 when I was celebrating almost 10 years since I first moved to this country that isn’t my own but that welcomed me as if I had always been part of it. in 2020 I’ve spent 13 New Year’s Eves in the US and collected so many memories and […]
Writing this post makes me feel a mix of bittersweetness, joy, and gratitude! Bittersweetness because, although going to Japan had always been my dream trip, I adapted so quickly to the culture I couldn’t help but feel my heart ache as I got on the plane headed back to NYC, wishing I could stay longer. […]
Some of you asked me on instagram if it was worth visiting the famous beach town in the winter so after another weekend in Atlantic City (in less than a year!), my answer to you is: YES! So I thought it was about time I shared some of the best things about one of New Jerseys […]
One of my top picks for a month-long trip in Asia is Hong Kong, for sure. The city has always intrigued me. As a kid, I’d always search for pictures and videos of it. Then I eventually fell in love with its history and decided I would see it firsthand someday. Well, the day […]

Yes, I’m that person who wants to see the most of anew place in the least amount of time. And that’s okay, I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything and with planning I was able to see all I wanted. I also enjoy longer trips, especially when I’m really on vacation (did I […]
Croatia is definitely one of the most popular places to visit in Europe, especially in the summer, the beaches and scenic views are breathtaking! But it always bothered me why people didn’t talk about Zagreb enough. So I decided to go visit and see for myself what the capital of Croatia is all about. And […]
I almost had to pinch myself but I’m writing this post from my QSuite, flying back to New York City on board of the A310 with Qatar Airways after two amazing days exploring Doha. I know I went a little crazy and there are probably at least two or three highlights on my instagram but there […]
I came back from Qatar yesterday and I wanted to write this post while the feelings and thoughts about this experience are still fresh on my mind. But as I was writing this I realized that no matter how hard one tries, this experience will be a hard one to forget… If you have been […]

I believe that at some point in the past decade I was bitten by a wanderlust bug and traveling became the top 1 thing on my daily list of things to do. After traveling the 50 states, I decided to go back to some of them and…explore some more! But yes, I know how much money goes […]
We all know New York has a lot to see and do. But because most tourists (and residents) tend to just focus on staying in Manhattan, they sadly end up following the same itinerary. As a result, people miss seeing views like the one above. This picture was taken on Fire Island, located 60 miles […]
