Wanted to take a hike so I booked the cheapest one way flight from NYC with a mountain.
The Scottish Western Isles - particularly Isle of Skye - tend to show up on everyones bucket list. They are wild, rugged, otherworldy, and a nature-lover's playgorund. Being so close by, we decided to take a trip when our best friend from the States visted us here in Scotland.
I wanted a break from my studies. School had been overwhelming and I just wanted something different. A quiet space to reset the mind and soul. So I decided go on a trip, to paint and enjoy the scenery. To relax and recalibrate.
I travelled to Kenya on a volunteer experience for 2 weeks and worked at an orphanage, but while I was there I was able to travel and experience so much of the culture. 4 of the days were spent doing travelling and experiencing Kenya
I traveled to Switzerland because I wanted to have a different kind of trip, focused on nature, hiking, mountains, and lakes. Visiting Switzerland had been a dream of mine for a long time, and I was excited to finally explore its beautiful landscapes in person.
Paphos was our first trip together, so we were looking for something affordable for the end of October. We wanted to travel during the low season, but still hoped to find a place warm enough to enjoy the sea. That’s how we ended up choosing Paphos and it turned out to be a great decision!
Everyone tells you to skip Panajachel and stay in San Marcos or San Pedro instead. I based myself in Pana for three days, took the boat out every morning, and got the painted houses, the art galleries and the best view on the lake without packing up once.
Beautiful place for a couples' road trip! We decided to plan our own trip rather than do the usual Dubrovnik and coastal route, and had a great time. We were even lucky enough to have a friend in the area who was able to show us around some local spots. https://couplestravelstories.ca/7-day-itinerary-croatia/
The rare chance to board down an active volcano brought me to this underrated Central American gem. Wild Pacific waves, motorbiking around a volcanic island inside a freshwater lake, and soaking up the sunshine at a laid-back surfer hub made the week-long adventure unforgettable.
Everyone treats Antigua as the place you sleep before you climb something. I gave it seven days, watched Fuego erupt over the rooftops before breakfast, and got my first earthquake in a three-story bar at midnight.
Everyone skips Coban on the way to Semuc Champey. I gave it two nights instead, walked into a 450-year-old procession by accident, and did the whole route on local buses for a quarter of what the shuttles charge.
Ever heard of artistic serenity? Yeah, that’s what I was looking for. Cultural ancestral inspiration into my soul, to forge on. Initially it was just a trip to a national park, and ended up being diverted to a full vacay. An unexpected adventure.
My husband and I went on a delayed honeymoon here and made it a trip down the Portuguese coast to surf, relax, and be in the warmth coming out of Scottish winter!
I decided to go on a solo trip for my birthday (again, big surprise!) and wanted to go back to Colombia. It became a second home to me after my first time there and I was so excited to see the families I met in the surrounding islands and make new life long friends like how I did back in 2025. Cartagena is the kind of place where you can't stay a stranger for long, and I wanted to spend my birthday somewhere that already felt like mine.
