Just a Girl and Her Travel Blog
I was inspired to travel by my family. I remember riding in the car along the winding mountainside in Southern California with Papa (my granddad) simultaneously driving and pointing down a deep ravine scaring the bejesus out of us. I can feel the long-healed bumps and bruises earned from a terrible experience of us ice [...]
Yesterday, I drove to Atlanta to go on food tour of Inman Park! Food Tours Atlanta is a locally owned company that takes you on tours of Inman Park and Ponce City Market, both of which boast wonderful history, culture, and food! I went on the Inman Park Tour simply because I studied Inman Park [...]
I don't even know where to begin. It's strange being here. I'm torn between feeling perfectly normal and horribly out of place. The range of emotions I've felt has gone from crying for joy to frustration to disgust to loneliness to content. Here's how. I landed yesterday morning at 8.15am. Getting off the plane and [...]
Picking up where we left off on the New England Road Trip. We planned day two to be a bit more relaxed than day one. There wasn't as heavy a rush to leave first thing in the morning due to a long drive. We set off around 9.00am towards Plymouth. Now we didn't really know [...]
We arrived in Boston late last Thursday night. We were all beat from long days of work or school, so we got our rental car and headed straight to our Air BnB in Roxbury. The next morning we were on the road bright and early headed to Maine. Kimberly had researched different places for us [...]
My friends and I returned home LATE Monday night / Tuesday morning from our four day road trip of New England. We had a BLAST! We visited Maine and Massachusetts and drove through New Hampshire. Our original plan of visiting Rhode Island and touching Connecticut was thrown out the window - we had some unexpected [...]
Back to typing up old diary entries from previous travels! Current 2017 thoughts on my super sassy, over exaggerated self from 2012 will be in bold and purple. July 3, 2012 I have gotten into a bad habit of getting distracted and leaving my journals unfinished. Also, I have finally gotten tape to put everything [...]
I was looking through pictures from my trip to Egypt the other day, and I was reminded of the shear beauty of the River Nile from the sky. The $140 I forked out for a 4.00am wake up and hot air balloon ride was more than worth it! I saw the sun rise directly over [...]
Last month, my dad and I took a day trip to Chattanooga, Tennessee. Looking back on it, we should not have decided to go on the Sunday of Labor Day weekend, but hindsight is always 20/20. We live about 2.5 hours south of Chattanooga, so we set out around 11.00am thinking that we would be [...]
So, my friends and I are going to New England! We are most excited about the trip. True, we will miss the peak of the leaves changing, but that's not a big deal. It also gives us an excuse to go back again someday. 🙂 So what are we going to do? Below you'll find [...]
