At the end of my trip with my two bags in my authentic Icelandic Lopapeysa! Sorry for the extremely long title of this post, but I really wasn't sure how else to name it. This really is all about the things that you SERIOUSLY DO NOT want to forget to bring with you if you visit Iceland in the summer months! Side note: Iceland is an amazing and extremely different culture from that of the United States (for starters: it's super safe. They have an average of 2 homicides per year) and for that ...

5 Things You Don’t Want to Forget When You Go to Iceland in Summer!
What I Packed For 5 Days in Iceland
Greetings, fellow travelers! (From my cat, Playbill, AND me!) I'm leaving in a couple of hours for Reykjavik! FINALLY! OMG. I never thought this day would end. I have my reservation at the Blue Lagoon already made for after I land tomorrow (with transportation from the airport and to my accommodation after!) and then I'm doing a tour of the Golden Circle on Friday which I've also already booked. I'm thinking I'll spend the rest of my time walking around Reykjavik, going to the cat cafe, ... VIEW POST
The Most Expensive Place I’ve Traveled To (So Far)
Since I'm going to Reykjavik in a few days, I'm starting to mentally prepare for the sticker shock when I get there because one of the number 1 things you'll read on the internet is how expensive it is. But I have lived in New York City for almost 15 years and New York City is SUPER expensive so I'm hoping that will temper my shock but I'm bracing myself. But I thought I'd write about what it was like when I visited the most expensive place that I've ever been to: Norway. I looked it up ... VIEW POST
Power to the People: Protests in NYC vs. Budapest
You may have heard that last week was the Women's March in major cities (and probably not major cities) across the United States. As far as I know, they were completely safe and no one was arrested. I took part in the one on the Upper West Side of New York City and marched downtown. To be quite honest, it was a very short march. But it's always nice to band together with people who are as outraged by outrageous policies are you are. The internet cannot provide that kind of camaraderie (sorry, ... VIEW POST
My One Night Travel Romance in London, England
As soon as I left my hotel on my first full day in London in 2017, I immediately beelined on the tube to the stop that I used most frequently while I lived in London as a student. Above is the first or second photo I took on my trip because I was just that excited. This is the story about the closest thing I ever got to a Rom-Com situation while traveling. It happened during my second week studying abroad in 2007 and I will never forget it. (Spoiler alert: It didn't lead to anything but it ... VIEW POST
Five Things I Want To Visit in Munich, Germany
A very sunburnt and soon-to-be-drunk 22 year old me at the Hofbrauhaus in 2008. I visited Munich for three days back in 2008 and I LOVED it. I'm shocked that I loved it as much as I did because I consumed a crazy amount of beer while I was there (to say I probably don't remember a lot of our first night is an understatement). To that end: it's a miracle I remember any of it at all. But as I've gotten older and smarter and learned more about history, Munich has been up there with Berlin and ... VIEW POST
