I don’t know what it is about it, but I absolutely love London. And I say that as someone who hates big cities. I struggled so much more in Edinburgh, Scotland than I ever have in London, despite London being bigger and more populated. Basically, London is one of my two favorite destinations (so far, at least), with Oman being […]
Loving Life in London, Even if You’re Broke
Haunting Your Sweetest Dreams: Anxious in Savannah, Georgia
Savannah, Georgia (GA) is a gorgeous city. It might be done to death by bloggers, but there’s a reason for it. Between its beautiful Historic District, its warm beaches, its chilling ghost stories, its walkability, and so much more, I’d highly recommend it. Maybe not so much in the summer, but any other time of year, definitely. There’s a wealth […]
Low on Money? Yeah, Me Too.
How to travel even when you technically can’t afford it. Traveling is great. New places, new food, new people (if you’re into that sort of thing), maybe a new climate… I could go on. It’s awesome. Why would I have a blog about travel if I didn’t think it was worth it? (Because it’s easier to write a couple blog […]
Crazy People in Cardiff
Oftentimes, the best places to visit are in your own backyard. Don’t get me wrong, traveling abroad is amazing, and if you have the option, then you should definitely do that. But when you’re looking for a shorter trip, lower budget, and/or shorter commute, sometimes national travel is your best bet. This was the case for me over my Easter […]

I’ve mentioned in other posts that something goes wrong on every single one of the trips I make. Sometimes it’s just little things like traffic delays or train maintenance. Other times, it’s much, much worse. And when you’re traveling internationally– especially solo– you really don’t want to deal with that. I’d hoped that my first solo trip would go well. […]
Beauty by the Sea: How to Spend a Trip to Aberystwyth, Wales
While I admit I haven’t been to many parts of the world yet, I don’t imagine how many places could be more beautiful than Aberystwyth, Wales. I know, big, scary Welsh word. It’s pronounced (Ah–burr–rist–with), and it means ‘Mouth of the River Ystwyth’, one of the rivers in town. Aberystwyth is a town in mid-Wales, along the coast. It’s absolutely […]
The First Nightmare
Sometimes trips go wrong. Mine go like this… I’ve been making international trips since I started uni (college, for my fellow Americans) a year and a half ago. It’s always really anxiety-provoking, and I get super stressed out. It doesn’t help that something has gone wrong on every single one of my trips. Whether it be getting stranded in an […]
