Your Escape Guide To Gili Air: Indonesia’s Tropical Paradise
If you’re looking for the best beaches closest to Bali, look no further than the Gili Islands just off the coast of Lombok in Indonesia. Of the three islands, Gili Air is my favorite, and this guide to Gili Air will show you why. I’ve also stayed on Gili Trawangan and Gili Meno. Gili T is now too much of a party scene for me, though you can get away from this on the north side of the island. Gili Meno is gorgeous, but a little too quiet for me. Gili Air is just right. A bit bigger than the other two makes for a little more to explore, and…

Bali Bliss: Unique Things To Do In Ubud
Ubud, just an hour away from the airport in Bali, is most people’s favorite place to base themselves on a trip to Bali. However, it can be very easy to heed the call of “transport?” and get caught up in leaving Ubud every day. While, I highly recommend seeing the sights around Ubud, you’re missing out if you don’t take at least a few days to explore this cultural heart of Bali. Spending time in Ubud instead of doing a tour every day is also a great way to make sure you come back from your vacation rested and relaxed rather than feeling like you spent every day in a…

Where To Travel In The USA Based On Your Personality Type
If you’ve never been to the USA, deciding exactly where in the United States to travel to is overwhelming. So, here are my recommendations on where to travel based on your personality type: 1. The Surfer For surfers and beach lovers, you absolutely must go to Maui, Hawaii. Maui has some of the most gorgeous beaches in the world. The water is warm year round, and the island is small enough that it’s easy to get to any beach in a short amount of time. Maui is also one of the top destinations for windsurfing and kite boarding. If you go from November-May, there’s a great chance you will also get to see…

Your Isla Mujeres Travel Guide
Isla Mujeres, a gorgeous island just off the coast of Cancun, is one of the prettiest beach destinations in Mexico. While I thought the beaches, especially North Beach, were absolutely stunning, it still didn’t capture my heart as much as Zipolite did. While I will say the beaches of Isla Mujeres are prettier than those of the Oaxacan coast, I prefer the Oaxacan coast because it is much less touristy than Isla Mujeres. Isla Mujeres is full of souvenir stores full of items made in China. And the owners stand outside as you walk down the street begging you to come inside their stores and restaurants. This gets rather annoying…
