When a little while ago I joined my friends on a spontaneous short trip to the north of Spain, I didn’t know much about the Basque Country, except that people there wore cool hats. Right before landing, the first look out of the airplane window let me know that this part of Spain would be totally different from what I had expected. Beautiful green mountains, tiny …
“If you start digging a tunnel to the other side of the world, you’ll end up in China.” Logic right? The earth is round, and that was where characters on TV normally ended up when they started digging. The whole idea has some minor flaws, in addition to being technically impossible how could China be the other side of the world for both Americans and Europeans? Apparently I’m not the only …
One upon a time there were two girls who yearned for an island adventure. One where they could walk barefoot along the beach, sip rosé in the afternoon sunshine, chase seagulls and boys with yachts, watch the sun come up and forget the the real world exists. Porquerolles beckoned:
The romantic village filled their hearts and minds as they slowly settled into the island rhythm imaging where they would live and …
“When I fly, people forget everything they thought they knew about impossible.” -Seanna Sharpe
Is anything really impossible? I personally think it is a silly word that gets used entirely too much for the good of anyone.

Norway and I have a somewhat difficult past. About a year or 2 ago I had a flight booked to Oslo at 8am but coming home drunk at 5am I never made it to the airport in time. Then, a year later, I was given the opportunity to visit on three different occasions within a matter of just a couple of months but never managed to squeeze it into my …

Sometimes it would be nice to have eyes in the back of your head – to catch funny moments you might have missed or really get a birds eye view on the world. What if I told you that there was a way for you to get 360° vision without hours of cosmetic surgery and ending up looking like some sort of futuristic cyborg? Introducing the ball – a throwable …

Early Saturday morning my sidekick Kellie and I jumped into her car to drive to the West side of O’ahu, one of the 8 Hawaiian main islands, to a little marina tucked into the corner of a beautiful piece of land. Ko’Olina Marina, first opened in 2000, is home to various catamaran sailboats where guests from nearby resorts come to inquire about snorkel tours and surfing trips. This unique spot …
I can’t believe that I’m about to admit this but for many years now I’ve been a collector of seriously ugly holiday souvenirs. My collection boasts a wide range of magnets, corkscrews, snow globes, pin badges, ash trays (despite the fact I don’t smoke), shot glasses and thimbles. Oh and if it has glitter on I’m guaranteed to buy two. The last item to enter my collection was a present …
