I've been holding on to some news for a few weeks now because the timing wasn't quite right to post about it, but the time has come and I'm excited to share it with you all! Things in my life were getting quite repetitive and monotonous. I began to feel trapped in my daily routine.... Continue Reading →
How Layovers Become Future Destinations
Layovers are one of the most frustrating and time-wasting parts of travel, right? Not always! For the improvisational traveler or backpacker, layovers and transfers can become quick adventures to help you get even more out of your travels. Naturally, this doesn't apply as much to travel by plane as much as travel by train or... Continue Reading →
Answering Your Questions- Part 3
-If you could go back to one place you visited, where would you go and why? I had a really hard time with this question because I saw so many cities in such a short span of time (24 cities in 17 days!) I feel like I could return to any of the places I... Continue Reading →

Part of me is extremely glad we skipped the Ring of Kerry because had we not, I probably would not have gotten to see the Dingle Peninsula at all. It... Continue Reading →
Tea, Sandwiches, Soup, and…Ancestral Castles?
This was by far one of the most personal experiences I had on the trip so you may have to bear with me a bit. In my last post, I talked about Emerson and the invisible eyeball in transcendentalism. This time was a little different but I'll dive into that a little later. The majority... Continue Reading →
A Jog Around Scotland
So I realized today that posting about each individual day would actually take me quite a while to catch up and may not be the most interesting thing to you as the reader. I decided to try to group the days into cohesive clusters in order to catch you all up a bit faster. I'm... Continue Reading →
Edinburgh
Hey all welcome back! I apologize for the lengthy pause between posts but Edinburgh is one of the coolest places I've ever been and I wanted to do the city justice by making sure my post properly portrayed how I feel about it.
