Belize is this wonder of a country that sits within Central America but makes you think you’re on a small island in the Caribbean. The warm feeling it gives you from the moment you land is unforgettable. If Belize hasn’t made it to your bucket list of destinations yet, I’ll definitely change your mind! A typical trip for me is about 3-4 days. It may seem difficult to really see a country and have a full experience during that short time, but I promise it’s possible. This was a fully packed quick trip that was full of culture and adventure. Definitely one of my highlights for travel in 2021 ..read more

Still in the mist of COVID, I made a trip to one of the locations that was effected by the pandemic the most but still one of my favorite cities in the world, NYC.

St. Lucia is one of those islands that you always see pictures of and fantasize going to, but never know if you'll really make it. Even in 2021, let me be the first to tell you it is 100% possible. One of the things I love most about traveling to St. Lucia is all of the protocols they have put in place to keep both their residents and visitors safe. Some might think it's "doing too much" or "not worth going to right now," but that's simply not true. St. Lucia has one of the lowest COVID rates in the Caribbean. Clearly they're doing something right. Native Language: English Currency: ECD - Eas ..read more

It's no secret that Mexico is a top location for #quarantinetravel but how can you go about it safely? I'm the first person to say I will continue to travel during this time but it's important to do it responsibly. The majority of countries that US vacationers travel to are 3rd World Countries. Many of those countries depend heavily on tourism to maintain their economy. While I hold this as a big reason to continue to travel, I also acknowledge that many of these same countries don't have the medical support to keep all of their citizens healthy if we choose to come in and not follow protocol ..read more

An area that doesn't get as much attention is Isla Mujeres. A true gem with some of the most gorgeous water I’ve ever seen in my life! With Mexico being one of the few countries allowing American in with practically no restrictions, it’s not surprising that so many of us are folking there. Regardless, it’s important to find the best places to stay, explore and stay safe that won’t break the bank. That’s the name of the game ..read more
