I didn't tour Switzerland this time, I basically moved into a friend's village - cows at the fence, fresh ravioli, darts in a boccia hall and my first ever lynx. Then the airline lost my seat (the plane existed, my ticket did not) and I got one more day/ There's definitely worse places to be stuck, this wasn't one of them!
Met a friend there who had flown from the states. We had both heard amazing things about this destination, and knew it was not as popular as other Euro destinations, so we figured we would give it a bash!
One tunnel under the Alps and Switzerland turns Italian - palm trees, lasagna by the lake and river water so green it looks fake. Everyone does Zurich and the mountains and never goes south, which is exactly why you should.
We were in need of a getaway that included fresh air, incredible views, and nature. We had heard great things about Under Canvas, Zion and the beauty of this part of Utah. This trip checked every box we needed, and more!

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 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.
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.
We chose this for the beautiful mountains and scenery as well as generally mild weather in March. The trip was technically 5 days but 2 of those were nearly exclusively travel days across the country.
My boyfriend and I wanted to have a special experience immersed in nature in the few days we had available, and decided on Pioneer for it's serene solitude and woodsy mountainous vibe.
