Photo Highlights from Maui

I had always heard great things about Maui and Hawaii in general so my expectations were already pretty high. Yet, I don’t think it sank in until my plane began its descent into Kahului Airport and the vibrant green valleys that make this island so unique began to appear. From that moment I was totally hooked

Lapland: The Ultimate Winter Wonderland

Two summers ago I got the chance to spend a few days in Lapland (Finland to be exact). While I’ve never visited Lapland in winter, I can only imagine how beautiful it looks with all the fluffy white snow all over the place. If I were to go back to Lapland in the wintertime, here

Fashion Guide to NoLIta

Maui Culture Reflected Through Color

Long before arriving to Maui I wanted to do a post about how the island’s culture is reflected through color. Granted, I knew very little about Maui but all signs pointed toward blue skies, green valleys and flower leis in all shades of the rainbow. All this turned out to be true, but I also

Feeling Like a Superhero on Maui

Dr. Seuss totally nailed it with his famous “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” story. Little did I know that a weeklong trip to Maui would have be going just about everywhere…including to the bottom of the ocean floor. It’s no secret that I’m a Disney fanatic but I’m also a superhero fan as well. Here

My Gritty and Glamorous Dubai Wish List

So I’m going to start this post off by saying that no, I’ve never been to Dubai. It’s not that I don’t have any interest, but the opportunity has never come knocking at my door. However, I recently attended a travel event here in New York and had an interesting conversation with a fellow writer

Boho Guide to Québec City

Québec is truly a bohemian city. I had always heard as much but then again, you can never know for sure until you visit yourself. I found it to be a city of contrasts that somehow manages to form a unified whole. For example, the romantic cobblestoned streets found within the walls of Vieux Québec are

An Unexpected Friend in Faro

Sometimes I look back and think, “Wow, I was really brave.” Despite being a well-traveled 26-year old (at least I think so!) some of my most daring decisions and memorable experiences happened before I became a travel writer by profession. During my semester living in London, I took every opportunity to travel. One of my
