Practicing Self Care + Managing Mental Health ...

I know as much as anyone that it can be difficult to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

5 Reasons You May Prefer Group Travel

Traveling the world is an amazing thing! There is no better feeling (in my opinion) than stepping out of the airport in a brand new destination & being welcomed by new sights & sounds. More often though, I find myself hopping into business mode; find a taxi, barter a price, locate the hotel, where should I eat? etc., & before I know it that feeling is gone. Group travel makes all of these things easy & allows you to make the most of each moment without having to worry about the logistics of where to go next, how to get there & how not to get ripped off. If you are a traveler (or soon-to-be traveler) who has never experienced travel as a group, here are a few reasons why you should try it out!

Is Street Food Safe?

Is Street Food Safe?

Websites boasting 'Eat The Streets' posts will tell you where to get your fix of local cuisine anywhere you want to go, but some locations are, no doubt, questioned more than others. While very few of us think twice about grabbing a hot-dog after the bar from a street stand in the States, so many travelers are warned time & time again to NEVER eat the street food in Thailand, Vietnam, Costa Rica, Bolivia .. you name it. But why? Is there any rhyme or reason to these warnings?
