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.
Most of all, I traveled to Turkey because I knew it would be meaningful. And it was. It turned into a trip filled with unforgettable memories, delicious food, heartfelt conversations, and the kind of cultural richness that stays with you long after you return home.
The 2025 Healthcare Professionals Cruise to Cozumel wasn’t just a “nice vacation”—it was a necessary reset. Our nurses, doctors, techs, therapists, and caregivers have been carrying heavy emotional, mental, and physical loads for years. This cruise gave them permission to step away from the alarms, the charting, the double shifts, and the “Can you just...?” texts, and step into rest, ocean air, and joy. Between turquoise water, unbothered naps, good food, and grown-folks laughter, they had space to breathe, reconnect with themselves, and remember they’re more than their badge.

Thailand has always been one of our favorite getaway destinations, especially since it’s just a short trip from where we live. Whenever there’s a long weekend, we find ourselves drawn back to this beautiful country—its perfect mix of shopping, culture, nature, and warm hospitality makes every visit special.
One of the things we love most about Thailand is how budget-friendly it is. You can indulge in amazing food, explore stunning sights, and experience luxury without spending a fortune. It’s a place that feels both modern and deeply rooted in tradition, where skyscrapers stand alongside historic temples, and vibrant markets buzz with energy. No matter how many times we visit, Thailand always has something new to offer, which is why we never miss a chance to return!
