Here’s my practical travel guide on solo female travel in Dublin. I’ve added where to stay, what to do, how to plan the trip, and…
UPDATED FEB 2020. London has it all. Not only does it have the easy to love three P’s – palaces, pasties, and parks, but it also has museums, lots of fun touristy sights, multicultural cuisines, and convenient public transport. It’s a great destination for anyone whether you are traveling alone, with friends or enjoying a family getaway. If you’re pinched…
UPDATED FEB 2020. April is a great time to visit Ireland because the flowers are blooming, there are fewer crowds, and the sheep have cute little babies that will make you swoon!

I love that you can explore just about anything from lakes, mountains, waterfalls, hikes, or snow adventures in winter. Here’s a look at what’s on offer with this guide to hikes in the…
UPDATED FEB 2020. I’ll be honest, when I first came across the website for the Thermal Beer Spa in Budapest, I thought that it was a touristy rip-off. I was also a bit skeptical of soaking in a tub of beer. Isn’t that yeast? All my spidey senses told me that it seemed like a bad idea. For some reason…
UPDATED FEB 2020. Budapest is one of the quieter cities in Europe with a lot to offer. The range of thermal baths were the first things to catch my attention. I’m a real water baby so I appreciate any time that I can get in the water! I was quick to realize though, that it is a city with a…
UPDATED FEB 2020. I have to say, I thought it would be easy to do a ‘where to stay in Budapest’ style post where I compared two different hotels. But, it turned out harder than I thought.
