DISCLAIMER: please forgive me, I am not the best writer, but I try my best to entertain!

I love to travel, and I feel like I grow and learn so much no matter where I venture to, so I thought why not share my adventures with my friends and family, while I have a little fun of my own :) I will attempt to share my experiences, while also offering tips and tricks for my fellow travelers!
