Since it looks like I won’t be doing much more traveling this year (except for maybe the occasional daytrip somewhere nearby), I now have a few moments to catch up on all the travels that have happened so far. One of the trips of 2016 was a ten-day-excursion to the West Coast. I had the chance to visit three lovely cities, for about three days each. Read More »
It’s Monday! A new week, a fresh start and perhaps also a case of the Monday blues. In my pursuit to counterfeit these so-called depressing mood swings, I’ve come up with the following list of travel blogs. I’ve been researching great material for my own travel aroundRead More »
After hiking Breakneck Ridge last year, I made a trip to Bear Mountain less than two weeks ago. It was peek fall season, which means the leaves on the trees have just the right color to symbolize perfect fall foliage on the Northeast Coast. Read More »
Today is Halloween. Hollow’s Eve. Night of the ghosts, deathly spirits, witchcraft and children trick-or-treating. In addition to the spookiness, a perfectly chill and cozy fall week has come to an end yesterday. I therefore thought it would be the perfect time to update you on our Sleepy Hollow adventure we had this past Saturday.
In late October of last year, my friends and I had the amazing opportunity to take a tour during one of the most breath-taking times of the season. The weekend before Halloween, we were led by Chase of Xcelerated Adventures through the hills and forests of Breakneck Ridge. Read More »
On Fourth of July a group of friends and I decided to rent a car and drive upstate for the day. A daytrip outside of the city is always nice and we underestimated how deserted the streets would be on this specific holiday. Which was certainly a great surprise. Read More »
After our shopping and exploration tour we were finally ready for the beach. And boy was it hot that day! I forgot about those dog days which usually happen end of July through beginning of August. During mid-August they were certainly still around and it was a welcome change to hop into the water and cool off. The beach itself had a small wooden path leading to the sand. Read More »
Last month I had the chance to take a quick beach getaway with two of my friends. We decided to venture out to Fire Island – which is part of Long Island and accessible only by ferry after a certain point.
It wasn’t my first time on this island, as I had gone to the Pines back in 2011 (check out the full story here and here). Read More »
Last month I went on a birthday trip to Colombia. It was my first time in South America. Colombia proved to be one of the most diverse and richest countries to explore on that continent (and also the cheapest, for that matter).Read More »
The next and last day was spent at Camden Market, which I really came to love in 2011. After having a delish breakfast in the Soho area, it was off to the bazaar and finding some souvenirs for the peeps back at home (and NY). Read More »
The very next day I paid the British Museum a visit. Just from the outside, as I already had been inside before. From here I strolled through Soho and Chinatown, the latter which I had been looking forward to returning to, since it’s quite picturesque and pretty. Read More »
My first Eurotrip of the year is already two months ago but I forgot to mention my stay in one of the greatest cities of all: London!
After being to the Brit Capital in 2011 already (read more on my first adventure here and here), I had always wanted to return and give this fabulous town another chance to catch up on some of the things I missed out on. Read More »
