Sometimes you just need a little break from your normal surroundings. Over the last couple of months I’ve been juggling work, studying, classes and trying to make time for my personal life. So a break from my normal routine was very much-needed. Philly is so close to New York (1.5 hour drive) that you could actually…

Bermuda: 22 miles of Paradise
Jetblue was so good to us in 2016. One sale or deal after another. So I was able to snag a good deal to Bermuda ($198 RT). So you know me “Ms. Book it now and figure it out later”…that’s exactly what I did! I knew nothing about Bermuda, only that they had pink sand beaches…
Dallas,TX: Foodie edition
Sooooo I finally made it back to Dallas (after my canceled trip in July), I wasn’t really sure when I could squeeze it in but I made it work. So remember that tip I gave a few post back about taking a few days off in advance?…well I did just that. I booked sometime in…
Long Beach, New York
Not all getaways have to be far! Long Beach is literally 45mins to an hour from Staten Island. About two months prior we were looking for places to go for Memorial weekend; we were hoping to come across some kind of flight deal but that didn’t happen. Then we started looking into Atlantic City- hotel…
“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…
Hollywood & South Beach Miami, FL
Build your travel squad! In March myself and 15 other people took a quick trip to Florida to celebrate my brother’s 21st birthday. We made it a four-day weekend/vacation. The group consisted of family and friends from different parts of New York, Pennsylvania and Texas. This trip was in the works for many months (the idea…
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…
