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…
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…

If you’re anything like me, food is one of the best ways to experience a new place—and Berat did not disappoint.

During my time in…
Shkoder is known as the gateway to the North of Albania; it’s the perfect place to base your adventures in the rugged landscapes of the Albanian Alps and explore the cultural heritage of this ancient city.

Albania only recently came onto our radar a few years ago, as we started to see the stunning beaches and stunning landscapes of this Balkan country popping up on Instagram. We started asking, is Albania worth visiting? As we started to research, we decided it absolutely was! So we started booking our flights and planning…

Okay, maybe that’s a little dramatic, but we really didn’t have the best time there—and that’s probably because our expectations were way off. Don’t get me wrong—the beaches themselves are stunning. We’re talking turquoise…
