In 2016, I decided to take a slightly shorter trip, only visiting three cities, all in the same country, Poland, but despite my less-than-awesome experience in hostels in 2015, I decided yet again to give them another go. EXCEPT I’d shell out the extra cash for private rooms and make sure that all of the hostels had 24 hour security. Hostel Brama: I think I took a cab from the airport to the city but I can tell you that it’s a 10 minute walk from the train station if that’s how you’re arriving. ... VIEW POST

A Traveler’s Guide to the Guinness Storehouse
I thought I should write the ultimate traveler's guide to visiting the Guiness Storehouse Experience in Dublin, Ireland. When I went to Dublin in July 2017, a tour of the Guinness Storehouse was a must. Not because I like Guinness (I don’t) but it’s one of those things that you have to do. Like coming to New York City as a tourist and not going to Times Square. It might be highly overrated, but you’re going to go anyway.
