Earlier this week, I booked my tickets to Curaçao in December! I’m super excited! It was meant to be my birthday present but since I found slightly cheaper tickets for December (my bday is in November), I booked it for December.
That’s alright. I have another trip to book for November anyways 😉

❗️I almost didn’t make it to my accommodation in Guatemala❗️
It was such a journey trying to get to where I needed to be. And it almost didn’t happen. In my latest vlog, I document what happened and why I almost didn’t make it 😩

Green Tortoise Hostel in Seattle: Is this the place to stay?
If you’re looking to solo travel to Seattle, Washington, don’t be surprised when you see how expensive accommodations are. It was crazy how expensive a hotel room was in the downtown area of Seattle.…

Do you like winter travel?
I've been trying to get out of my comfort zone and travel more during the winter or to locations that have a winter season.
I don't like the cold but I love traveling during off seasons and practicing my photography in a wintery setting.

I'd love to see your sunset pics!
I love a good sunset! The play on colors with the shadows and colors of the scenery are incredible.

The first one on the left is Jim Thorpe during a snow storm in January 2024. I tried to get out of my comfort zone and work on my winter photography.
Second is my time in Iceland in December 2024. This view and the lighting was beautiful, even with the cold temps.

In a couple of months, I'll be visiting Norway for the first time! I'll be there for about 5 days, so not a lot of time.
If you have any recs on things to do, restaurants, and activities that would be appreciated! I'm flying into Oslo but would like to see at least 1-2 other regions if possible.

I'm thinking about creating a new Instagram account that's dedicated to showcasing my photography.
Just pictures from my travels. No itinerary, tips, or anything like that attached to the images. Just a page dedicated to travel views and landscapes, and my progression in photography.

After traveling to many beautiful locations in Vermont, my birthday trip came to an end.
Vermont is such a beautiful state and I’d love to return to visit some more places! Possibly in September or October when there’s slightly warmer weather and more fall foliage 🍂🍁

Vermong Day 5:
We went back to Woodstock to get some B-Roll for my freelance work, which was nice!
Afterwards, we went to Quechee Gorge Trail to see the gorge. Then, we visited White River Junction. Finally, we went back to the resort to eat dinner, and enjoy our company before leaving.

My friend and I drove to Burlington for a day of exploration!
We parked our cars and got to it. Church St. is a must when visiting Burlington, the Fleming Museum (free to enter), and the waterfront for a beautiful sunset.
We finished off the day at Pascolo Ristorante for dinner.

While planning for a solo trip to Iceland, I wanted to do this trip primarily on a budget so I could save money.
This meant:
. staying in a hostel
. buying snacks/water at the store
. walking/bus instead of taxis
. bringing 2x amount of money I thought I'd need
. travel during the off season
