To be honest, I was very apprehensive before I embarked on my first real tour experience, sailing the Greek islands with Medsailors. A university friend, Haley, and I wanted to explore some more off the beaten path islands, and we found this trip that seemed to tick all of the boxes. But I’m so used […]
Hippie Paradise in Minca
I had a very specific itinerary for my nine days in Colombia. How much of that itinerary did I follow? The first night. After that, everything went out the window including a few prepaid hostels, a flight, and some tours. I didn’t lose too much money due to the cheap cost of travelling in Colombia, […]

Colombian Football Fans are Terrifying and Amazing
In my first post about my amazing trip to Colombia, I promised a story about tear gas – and here it comes! There’s also another story in here about the worst bus ride in the entire history of bus rides. While I was wandering around Medellin, my friend Theresa was industriously making plans for our […]
Alone in the Most Dangerous Neighborhood in Medellin
Colombia. When I told travellers my age I was going here, they couldn’t stop singing its praises, telling me how much it has to offer. When I told anybody in my family, or any of my older coworkers, they first confirmed that I did, in fact, mean the Colombia in South America, and then asked why […]

The Time I Got Robbed in Italy
Perugia. The name of the town in Italy’s Umbria region conjures up two things for me. The memory of what was possibly the happiest and most idyllic time of my life; days by the pool and evenings by the fields, drinking wine and eating homemade Italian food. And the very different memory of reaching into my […]
My 12 Favourite Hostels in Europe
EUROPE PREIKESTOLEN FJELLSTUE: NORWAY I’m writing about the Pulpit Rock hike in Norway again?! Seriously Bethany, shut up about it already. Anyway, in my post all about the hike I talked a little bit about where I stayed, but it’s just amazing. Sitting in the lounge, watching the sun set (which didn’t happen until around 10:30PM) […]
