Yoga in Ahangama feels like everything else in Sri Lanka right now—it’s growing fast. More restaurants, more cafes, more coworking spaces… you can really tell the south coast is blowing up, especially all those little beach towns. Even just in the span of a year and a half, the change has been wild. When I…
Right now in 2025, I still think it’s the perfect time to visit Ahangama. It’s not quite as popular (or hectic) as Mirissa or Weligama, but it’s getting close—and that sweet in-between stage means new cafes, cocktail bars, and restaurants are opening all the time. I don’t know what it is, but from my experience,…
Before heading to the island you should know that Caye Caulker is tiny. At just 1.5 square miles, the whole island is walkable, and with no cars (just golf carts and bikes), life moves at an easy, sun-soaked pace. But don’t let the size fool you—where you stay can make or break your trip. When…
Caye Caulker is the kind of place where you can’t help but fall in love with the laid-back vibes, the turquoise waters, and, of course, the unforgettable snorkeling. I’m not exaggerating when I say this was the best snorkeling I’ve ever done! Located in the Belize Barrier Reef, it’s seriously epic. We booked our tour…
Before this most recent trip to Peru, Carae and I had already been to Cusco once before. On both visits—first in 2022 and then again in 2025—we made sure to stay at least a week, the first time almost two. That gave us plenty of time to explore different areas, try a ridiculous number of…
Amsterdam is one of those cities people love visiting all year round. In winter, the canals light up with Christmas decorations, and if you’re lucky, you might even see people ice-skating on them. In spring and summer, the city turns green, tulips bloom everywhere, and the outdoor cafés fill up fast. People come here for…
Hey, it’s Oliver. I get asked all the time about where to stay in Amsterdam, so I thought it would be easier to just put everything together in one guide. Whether you’re coming for the first time or just looking for a fresh perspective, I’m here to help you navigate the city’s neighborhoods, hostels, hotels,…
Caye Caulker might be tiny, but when it comes to diving, it packs a serious punch. Sitting right off the Belize Barrier Reef—aka the second-largest reef in the world—this little island is a dream for divers. Whether you’re into wall dives, shark encounters, or just cruising through coral gardens, this is one of the best…
Finding the perfect place to eat has always been a double-edged sword. On one hand, I spend hours reading reviews, scrolling through menus, and overanalyzing Google ratings like it’s my job. On the other hand, I almost always end up at the best spots. So was it really wasted time? (Absolutely not.) Me and my…
Backpacking through Mexico and Central America is one of my greatest joys—and also one of the biggest pains in the ass. Last year, I went on a girls’ backpacking trip with some of my best friends. We knew we wanted to explore Quintana Roo, but then we saw this dreamy little island in Belize, Caye…
