My Trips

50% blog, 50% photo journey. See highlights of trips I’ve taken and perhaps use them as inspiration for your own adventures. Or learn from my mistakes and benefit from my recommendations. They’re also perfect for armchair travelers! ✈️ 🌏 ⛺

Egypt

March 2023

5 Egyptian cities over 13 days while circumnavigating almost 2000 miles. This whirlwind tour was equal parts exhausting and exhilarating. From tombs to temples to trains, we experienced many ancient sights and treasures.

Jordan

February 2023

I spent 6 days traveling across the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in the Middle East. Copious amounts of baklava were harmed in the making of this trip, but I have not a single kilo of remorse! And the Treasury in Petra illuminated at night was a bucket list experience. ❤️

Portugal

September 2022

10 days, three major cities and their surrounding areas, and 3 friends. We tasted our way through Portugal and these were our adventures!

New Zealand

March 2019

My brother and I spent three weeks traipsing around the two islands getting to know the Kiwis and their small slice of heaven nestled in the South Pacific. Plus, we figured out a loophole to being single on Valentine’s Day: fly west and skip the entire day! 😂 We departed SFO at 22:45pm on February 13th and landed on the 15th after crossing the international date line.

Ireland

October 2017

I spent 13 days road-tripping around the Southern half of Ireland with friends. The Irish drive on the left side of the road and don’t believe in road shoulders, so driving can be a bit stressful. There are abandoned castles all over the place, and you’ll likely stumble upon one you weren’t even expecting.

Isle Royale National Park

September 2017

I spent two consecutive summers making the 6 hour voyage across Lake Superior to camp, hike, and explore one of Michigan most remote and magical places.

Iceland

May 2016

Two trips for two weeks each exploring the land of fire and ice. Lots of waterfalls, mountains, and geothermal pools.
