20 Movies That Will Give You The Travel Bug
As a film lover and travel enthusiast, some of my favorite movies to watch are the ones that involve travel. Whether it is actually a movie with travel as the main focus or one that just shows off a beautiful destination in the background of the plot, any movie that makes you want to grab your passport and buy a plane ticket can be found on this list. Sometimes when traveling is not in your cards, watching a movie can help transport you somewhere else. Table Of Contents: Soul-Searching / Spiritual Journey Travel Movies: 1.

How To Pack A Fun Capsule Wardrobe
One of the ways to make your packing easier and more sustainable is by curating a capsule wardrobe. By definition, capsule wardrobes are typically minimalistic and neutral, but that can sometimes block you from expressing yourself through your clothing. If you’re like me, you love putting together fun outfits that show off your creative style, and capsule wardrobes can prevent that from happening. However, that doesn’t have to be the case. I have provided some tips on how to pack a fun capsule wardrobe. “A capsule wardrobe is a minimalist collection of clothes that can be put together in different ways to cover a variety of outfits and occasions.” Capsule wardrobe.

22 Ways To Make Travel More Eco-Friendly
Earth Day comes around every April 22nd to remind us to take care of this planet we call home, and in honor of this holiday, I would love to share 22 ways to make travel more eco-friendly. The tourism industry can be very harmful to the planet with the amount of pollution created and resources used, but that doesn’t mean we should stop traveling. It just means we should all do our part to travel in the most eco-friendly way possible if we want to be able to keep traveling forever.

The Perfect Happy Hiking Playlist
Most anything becomes a lot more enjoyable when you have the perfect playlist to listen to in the background. That’s why I have created playlists for almost every mood I could possibly be in. When it comes to hiking, I think it’s best to have an overall happy playlist, something that makes you feel grateful to be out in nature and that puts a little pep in your step. A hiking playlist is especially useful if you are someone who hikes alone. Hopefully, this playlist consists of the perfect mix of songs you already know and love, as well as songs that you will come to know and love. You…

Not Your Typical Travel Bucket List (USA Edition)
I am sure you are very familiar with bucket lists and have seen handfuls of travel ones in your life. If that is the case, then your typical bucket list probably goes a bit like “Visit the Grand Canyon” or “Travel across Europe” which is understandable because who wouldn’t want to do those things? However, what about all the oddities the world has to offer that you don’t get to hear about often or even at all? In this post, I would like to give the weirdest parts of the United States the spotlight that they deserve in what I call “Not Your Typical Travel Bucket List (United States Edition)”…

The Van Gogh Immersive Experience: A Guide
My most recent experience and newest recommendation is the Van Gogh Immersive Experience that has been popping up around the country. This exhibit is the latest way to showcase art, with the main event being a giant room where the walls are covered in projections in order to make you feel like part of the painting. After learning that it was coming to Atlanta, I immediately bought tickets. Not really knowing what to expect, I was a little worried that the tickets I had just paid for were not going to be worth it. Is sitting in a room full of projectors really going to be all that great? Well,…

The Time I Got Into The Atlanta Super Bowl For Free
In 2019, I was a freshman at Kennesaw State University near Atlanta. This was the same year that the Super Bowl happened to be coming to Georgia. While I thought this was a super neat coincidence and knew I would enjoy the experience if I could go, I had no intention of spending that much money on a ticket. Like I said, I was a college freshman. If I had thousands of dollars laying around that I could use on a Super Bowl ticket, I would not have had to take out a loan for school. However, I did end up getting to go to the Super Bowl for free,…

How Not To Hike Stone Mountain
Stone Mountain located in Atlanta, Georgia is a famous mountain with a great view (if you can make it to the top). I had always heard it was especially beautiful if you could wake up early enough to reach the peak by sunrise. After hearing about it, I really wanted to try it out. After all, I sure do love my Georgia hikes. However, I am the complete opposite of a morning person, and it was also difficult to find someone who would agree to do such an early hike on a random day. Therefore, it took me a very long time to finally make the journey. Then I had…

16 Dollars For a Drink and Some New York Trauma
Recently I went on a trip to New York City with my boyfriend. I was beyond excited as I had been to New York before with my high school and had fallen in love with the city at first sight. However, most people know that New York is not a walk on the beach. It can easily be one of the most chaotic vacations you will ever take. It almost does not feel right to even call a trip to NYC a “vacation” because I do not think that there is ever a moment where you are truly relaxed. This is honestly one of the reasons I love it so…
