While I try not to do too many of these challenges in a row, this week’s prompt was too perfect to pass up. “I’d rather be ___.” I didn’t even have to think twice before answering “traveling.” I guess it’s a good thing I’m off to Berlin in just a few days then, huh? While I’ve…

6 (Not so Expensive) Things Worth Investing in for Travel
I am a budget traveler in every sense of the term. I buy budget airline tickets on sale and will skip meals just to save a few bucks if I find myself in a tourist trap. But when it comes to gear, there are definitely some things that you shouldn’t forgo for the sake of…
6 Things I Regret Packing when Moving to Europe
It’s been almost 2 years since I moved to Germany. I’ve made 3 smaller moves and an international one since then where I’ve really had to examine everything and decide if it’s worth it to keep. Having to be so cut-throat means that there are inevitably things I decided not to keep and so I wanted…
My Travel Makeup; A Product Breakdown and Tutorial
Who the heck wears a face full of makeup backpacking in 94°F/34°C heat?! *cough*cough*Munich* Obviously the answer is me… it’d be kinda weird if it wasn’t since it’s my blog, but whatever… let me explain.

I don’t know when I’ll be back…
In just a few short hours I will be getting on a train with no idea where I’m going or when I’ll be back. I’ve traveled enough at this point that this knowledge no longer terrifies but thrills me. It’s incredibly freeing to not know the details; to have a starting point and just go…
Travel Germany this Summer with Super Cheep Train Tickets
So much has happened since uni let out for summer and yet nothing at all. To sum it up, after about a week of emails, meetings and appointments, I confirmed that my visa will only allow me to work 120 days per calendar year, no exceptions. When I had been issued my visa, I was…

Well I made it through another semester! Aside from one mishap in Risk Management, I think I managed alright. Let me recap this last week for you and share some of my plans for the near future. School’s out for Summer! While one of my classes concluded with a giant presentation last week, I still had…
City Cards – Are they worth it?
This little blurb was originally part of my Backpacking in Portugal post but it was a bit of a tangent and added to an already lengthy post. I thought I would write a separate post on the topic of city cards in general and let you know what I’ve learned and how I feel about them….
A Week Backpacking Portugal!
If you didn’t already know (I only mentioned it a million times), I spring-breaked in Portugal last week! I had such an amazing time so naturally the post is ridiculously long. I apologize in advance but I really did a lot so it was hard to condense. If you want to know how it went,…
