Lake Geneva, Switzerland // FLASHBACK FRIDAY
Switzerland is most revered for its beautiful mountains, but you know what? I think I prefer its lakes.
I had one of my rare Perfect Days frolicking around Lake Geneva during my 2 week London/Switzerland trip in late summer of 2008.
Kickin’ it in Colorful Cartagena, Colombia
My recent trip to the Colombian coast began and ended in Cartagena. We spent the rest of it getting to Tayrona National Park and back, which took more time and effort than one might typically spend during an 8 day vacation.
The Oregon Coast // FLASHBACK FRIDAY
Aaaaaaand as further proof that the west coast is the best coast: the gorgeous Oregon coast.
Oregon’s beaches might not be ideal for swimming since they’re so cold, but they sure are pretty.
Tayrona National Park (Parque Tayrona): Everything You Need To Know
A quick google search will tell you that Tayrona National Park is beautiful, gorgeous, stunning, insert any superlative here. It didn’t take much convincing for me to allot nearly half of my time in Colombia to this tropical oasis.
Best of London – Photo Gallery
The ‘Best of London’ photo gallery below is a collection of images I took during my 2.5 weeks there last summer. I was based in South London and spent much of my time sampling London’s coffee shops and, oh I don’t know, writing up a storm for this here blog.
Monument Valley // FLASHBACK FRIDAY
I’m going to Utah for 4 days next month and I’M SO EXCITED!! It’s not often enough that I get to escape the big city and hit the open road. Current plan is to rent a car from Salt Lake City, belt out some tunes with the windows down, and head down to Canyonlands and Arches National Park.
Beach Hopping at Tayrona National Park
This is not a blog post highlighting the top 5 must-sees, or how to budget for a tropical getaway.
Instead it serves one simple purpose: to show you how incredibly BEAUTIFUL the Colombian coastline is, and inspire you to visit Tayrona National Park someday.
I Didn’t Love Bruges, Belgium // FLASHBACK FRIDAY
Ever visited a place that you had such high hopes for, only to find that it’s not all it’s cracked up to be?
After watching the movie In Bruges, I fully expected to love this Belgian town.
Insta-Colombia: Colombia By Instagram
Shortly into the new year, my friend Nicki and I decided to book a cheap flight to somewhere warm and exotic. At a near-laughable $365 roundtrip during mid-February, Cartagena won out.
