If you’re planning a trip to Egypt, I’m willing to bet you’re adding a visit to the pyramids of Giza to your itinerary. And for good reason! Just imagine standing in the shadows of these monumental structures, breathing in the dust (literally, ha!) of ancient history. The Giza Complex includes the Sphinx, Giza Necropolis, Pyramids, and […]

So, you took the leap and decided to book a trip to Egypt, awesome! I’m sure you have a lot of questions; I definitely did! I spent 11 days in Egypt in November of 2022. During this time, I visited Cairo, Luxor, and Hurghada. This was such an incredible trip and so different from other […]

Cusco, Peru, is an ancient city that quite literally takes your breath away. I flew into the city of Cusco after spending an incredible few days in the Amazon Jungle. I spent the first half of my Peru trip in Lima and Puerto Maldonado, both low elevations. In an hour, however, I found myself going […]

I’ll be the first to admit, when traveling through Thailand, one of the highest experiences on my bucket list was to ride an elephant. I mean, who wouldn’t, right?!
