I traveled to Turkey for something deeper than just sightseeing — I went to reconnect. Months earlier, during an Erasmus program in Bansko, I met a wonderful group of Turkish friends who instantly made me feel welcome, understood, and supported. Our connection was effortless, and when they invited me to visit them in Ankara, I knew I had to go.
I traveled to Turkey because I wanted to experience their culture through their eyes — the food they love, the places they cherish, the everyday life they wanted to share with me. It wasn’t about checking tourist attractions off a list; it was about friendship, hospitality, and seeing a country in the most authentic way possible.
I also wanted a change of scenery — a burst of color, warmth, and adventure after months of routine. Turkey offered all of that. From the vibrant bazaars and beautiful parks to the spontaneous nights filled with music and laughter, I found myself absorbing every moment.

I was staying at a friend’s peaceful farmhouse in Nes i Ådal, a lush pocket of the countryside northwest of Oslo, when we decided to plan a rugged nature escape. The rules were simple: it had to be something adventurous, scenic, and a destination he (as a local) had never done before.

Silverback gorilla trekking in Uganda has always been high on my bucket list. Although high, it was one that felt far, far away. That was until I looked into it and learned there are fewer than 1,100 mountain gorillas left in the world. They are spread across three African countries: Uganda, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Gorilla trekking offers a glimpse into the world of this endangered species and a chance to contribute to their conservation. Tourism plays a crucial role in funding the protection of their habitat and the ongoing efforts to ensure their survival for generations to come.
Why Uganda? My research led me to decide between Rwanda and Uganda. Of the two, Rwanda is the more popular country for trekking. They have invested more in tourism infrastructure, making it relatively easy for travelers to access the park, obtain permits, and engage in gorilla trekking. As a result, it is also the most crowded place to trek.
The pros for Uganda were that it’s home to about half of the remaining mountain gorillas. This makes the rainforest we trekked a critical sanctuary for the survival of these majestic creatures. It draws fewer people and is a little less expensive. For these reasons, we chose Uganda. (During this trip, I traveled with my sister and her boyfriend. It is a perfect experience to make unforgettable memories with friends and family.)
Nestled in southwestern Uganda is the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. This rainforest’s name reflects its thick vegetation and challenging terrain, making it difficult for humans to access and explore. That’s where your expert guides come into play.
When a dear friend and a fellow lover of Mexico confessed he’d never ventured to Baja (let alone Valle de Guadalupe), my mission was clear. I had to make our one day in Valle de Guadalupe unforgettable.
