Stereotypes of Cuba

I haven’t done a Top 5 Tuesdays in awhile, so I thought I would show a lighter side of me. For those of you who don’t know me, while I am considered quite smart, I tend to be a bit…scatterbrained. Despite having traveled quite extensively these past few years, you think…

September 23, 2015 March 24, 2018Tips, Tricks, and Lists, Wanderings 0

Let’s face it, more than likely you aren’t going to be the next Anthony Bourdain or Samantha Brown (seriously, how did she get that job?!). As much as I we would love to be paid to travel all over the world, chances are the Travel Channel won’t come knocking on…

Wander Wednesdays: Marina Bay Sands – The View without the Price Tag

February 11, 2015 March 24, 2018Asia, Singapore, Tips, Tricks, and Lists, Wanderings 5

Continuing with last Wednesday’s blog on Hong Kong, I am moving onto city number two on CNN’s List of Most Visited Cities, which is Singapore. Singapore rivals Hong Kong in many ways: both are former British Crown colonies, they are two of the leading financial cities in the world, they both…

    Day 344 : Another trip around the sun. Hard to bel Day 344 : Another trip around the sun. Hard to believe where this year has taken me. Last year I was celebrating over Zoom, hadn't been able to see my family in a year nor travel.

This year while still surviving COVID, I've gotten to see my family, quit a job, moved halfway across the world, started school again in a different language, went from living by myself to having roommates, traveled more than last year. Not many people do this at my age or even ever. I can definitely say I am fortunate! 

While there have been many ups and downs, can't wait to see what the next year brings.

Thanks for all the well wishes!
