Welcome to the incredible city of Paris! From movies and TV shows to books, plays, and musicals, Paris is easily one of the most iconic cities in the world.
Visiting Meteora: Clifftop Monasteries With A View In Greece
I can’t remember how Meteora first came onto my travel radar, but it only happened a couple months before I was due to start my trip to Greece last year (yes, I was just a tiiiiiiiny bit late to make the connection between the old Linkin Park album that I loved in high school and this famous world landmark).
Best Beaches in Kefalonia (+ Other Must-Dos)
Kefalonia (Cephalonia) was the 4th and final island in my 4-week Greek island hopping adventure in summer 2019.
Unlike the other 3, I didn’t even know this island existed before I started doing my research on the Greek islands.
Things To Do In Crete: A Crete Road Trip Itinerary
Filed under Travel Oopsies: That time I booked one (non-refundable) Airbnb for my entire stay in Crete without realizing it was a 3 hour drive from all of the things I most wanted to see on the island.
Best Beaches in Crete: The 10 Crete Beaches You Must Visit

Kefalonia, Greece.
Gorges du Verdon: Is This Really the South of France?
I don’t know about you, but when I think about the south of France, I picture hilltop villages, lavender fields, herbs and fresh fruit, castles, and the French Riviera.
If you described to me a 15-mile-long gorge with an accompanying milky neon aqua-colored lake, I’d assume you were waxing poetic about Slovenia.
Who’s Who of Provençal Towns: 13 Of The Best Villages in Provence, France
Anyone remember their high school superlatives? I never got voted in for anything, which I was quite happy about (cause y’know, can’t put homegirl in a box). But if I had to give my 17-year-old self a title, I probably would have been the Most Determined (to get the hell out of my hometown and make it into a top college), or Most Serious (a far cry from the goofball I am today, but back then I had no time for LOLs, chats, or fun).
