Egypt is a place that I get a lot of questions about, and recently I received one that led me to prepare this post. It made me realize that I had guides on safety and how to plan a trip, but didn’t share a guide on the best things to do when you visit Egypt. Now, of course, this isn’t…
No offense Rick Steves or Lonely Planet, but when I’m planning a trip, I don’t use guidebooks. The thing about them is, everyone is reading the same guidebook. So everyone goes to the same places. And I find that they’re very corporate. They usually just share all the same big ticket attractions and tours that have paid their way in.…
It’s time to let your inner basic girl shine because today’s post is all about flower fields. While they might be over for this year – sorry I didn’t get to this earlier to allow more time for you to get there, I’m hoping this can help you prepare for future years. Here’s my guide on checking out the sunflowers…
Jordan Lake has just about everything. Beaches, camping, hiking trails, bird watching, boating, and a whole lot of gorgeous nature. Best of all, since it’s only an hour away from Fayetteville, it makes for a great option for an adventure day in the sun and water. Here’s my guide on where to swim at Jordan Lake with everything you need…
Even though I moved to the US in 2013, I’ve never actually been to a 4th of July event. I haven’t deliberately avoided them, it’s just that each year I’ve either been working or traveling and missed the whole experience. Is that grounds for being arrested for treason? Who knows, but if it helps my case, it all changed this…
If you saw my post last week but feel a little overwhelmed about what to pack to go off the grid, I hope this will help! Here’s my guide on what to pack for glamping at Glamping Unplugged. I’ve written it based off my experience at that specific glamping site, but I’m sure you could adapt it to wherever you…
When you watched George of the Jungle, did you ever dream of living in his treehouse? Well, here’s your chance. Sort of. Today I’m sharing a solo adventure I recently went on which was an off the grid glamping experience. It’s got unique accommodation, nature, and a healthy balance of relaxation and adventure. If you plan to go glamping in…
“I’m here for Andre.” That’s what I said when I walked into the Rankin Museum of American Heritage. You see, when I moved to North Carolina, I didn’t know much about it at all. I wouldn’t have been able to point to it on a map (though I had a guess it was up north somewhere so even my guess…
Are you ready? I have another World’s Largest thing for you today. And it’s another one that is right here in North Carolina. If you’re in the Fort Bragg area it makes for a perfect day trip whether you’re on a solo adventure like me, heading out with friends, or have family visiting and want to take them somewhere unique.…
I’m excited to share this one with you today because it’s a hiking area with a unique twist. You’ll be able to hike around a diverse range of settings, share the space with lots of wildlife, and even see a historic water powered mill. Here’s my guide on how to plan a day trip to Historic Yates Mill County Park…
