    Things to do in Burlington, VT

    Burlington, VT is the perfect weekend getaway destination for anyone who lives in the New England area or even for those that don’t! Since COVID hit, we haven’t been able to get out of the house really at all. I was craving a vacation! Escaping to Burlington, VT gave me the perfect dose of those travel endorphins I have been missing. It was far enough away from Boston to forget about work and truly feel like we were on vacation but close enough so we didn’t have to risk a plane ride in the middle of a pandemic.

    3 Days in Barcelona, Spain

    Oh, Barcelona. One of my favorite cities in the world! In college, I studied abroad in this amazing city for 3 months. This past January, I finally got the chance to return. Sadly only for 3 days instead of 3 months. However, this time I was able to bring my mom with me . I was so excited at the opportunity to show her all of my favorite places in Barcelona. Since it was my mom’s first time in the city, I wanted to make the most out of our 3 days in Barcelona and be sure she saw everything there was to see. Day 1: Gothic Quarter, Barcelona Cathedral,…

    A Night in the Sahara Desert

    The Sahara Desert is a truly magical place to spend a night. On a trip to Morocco, while studying abroad, my friend and I decided we couldn’t miss out on this experience. So with the help of our hostel, we booked a trip into the Sahara for the next night. We departed from Marrakesh, where we took a ride into the beginning of the desert. We came to the initial starting point for the adventure into the desert. Here is where we got acquainted with our new camel best friends and saddled to spend a night in the Sahara Desert. The trek into the desert took about 2 hours until…

    How to Spend 48 Hours in New Orleans

    Back in College a group of us decided to take the weekend and road trip down to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. The road trip in itself was an adventure and took us 27 hours of straight driving to get there.

    5 Things To Do on a Girl’s Weekend in San Diego

    San Diego is a perfect place for a quick weekend escape with a couple girl friends. San Diego offers so many different types of adventures, it makes it easy to please any type of girl.
