Unfortunately, I have taken a trip in the past 2 months *insert crying face and broken heart*. Fourth of July weekend I was supposed to go on a 5 day getaway to Dallas, Texas with my family for Princess Ava’s first birthday and then….my flight was delayed then officially canceled due to the weather. But…
Florida: 3 days, 3 cities & 3 beaches
Last minute birthday trip! Just when I thought I would be in New York for my birthday Delta Airlines blessed me with a sale..$104 round trip to Miami. Now me loving Miami, there was no way I would pass up this deal. My cousin Koko and I booked the flights about 3 weeks before my birthday,…
“How do you find these deals?”
Everyone has an addiction, something that brings him or her some kind of feeling whether it is good or bad. Mine happens to traveling and experiencing new places and things; so I am constantly researching flights, vacation spots, and anything else that would remove me from my normal routine of going to work and staying…
Traveling the Caribbean…via Carnival Cruise
Recently I was going through my pictures and found some amazing shots that I had taken. My wanderlust began with cruises that I went on from 2007 through 2011. So let’s dedicate this post to how it all began. Over 25 family and friends were in attendance for each cruise, which was pretty dope and I…
Sheikh Zayed Mosque (The Grand Mosque)
During my Abu Dhabi & Dubai, UAE trip I mentioned that we went to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, but i did’t go into much detail in that post. I think it’s only right that I go into a little bit more detail and elaborate on this experience as well as share more photos…

Dallas, Texas
Visiting family is always a great reason to travel! My cousin moved to Dallas, Texas a couple of year ago, and I’ve been saying that I would go down to visit. Then when she had her daughter last year July, i was determined to finally go. I started looking up flights and low and behold Southwest was…
San Juan, Puerto Rico
Schedule random days off of work even if you don’t have anything planned yet! In August I requested a few days off for a long weekend; I wasn’t sure if I would use them or cancel it; but I just wanted them just in case. Then about 3 weeks before those days I found a…
Interact with the locals
Get connected! It’s one thing to go visit different countries and cities abroad but it’s another to get insight and see how the locals live and hear some of their stories. When I go on my trips, especially abroad I definitely look forward to interacting with the locals. I like to hear about their lives…
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Weekend Getaway! The Made in America music festival was a great way to end the summer and kick off the fall. It takes place Labor Day weekend in the city of Brotherly Love-Philadelphia. My friend and I actually made this a four-day weekend. We drove down to Philadelphia early Friday afternoon; it was only about…
