Travel, eat, repeat.
Going to Iceland without going glacier hiking is like going to Cancún without going to the beach – you’ve just gotta do it! In order to make the most of this once in a lifetime opportunity, I signed up for the Glacier Experience with Arctic Adventures. Arctic Adventures is one of Iceland’s most well respected adventure companies. […]
Snorkeling in the Silfra Fissure was one of the highlights of my week in Iceland. It is the only place in the world where you can swim between two continental plates. The fissure separates North America from Eurasia and is one of the most coveted diving destinations on the planet. Divers love it because the underwater […]
Looking for an unusual day trip from Amsterdam? Why not Naarden! Naarden is a 17th century fortified town about 30 miles east of Amsterdam. It’s known for a well preserved 17th century star-shaped fortification system that entirely surrounds the city center. If you ask me, it looks more like a snowflake than a star, but […]

I love Amsterdam, but let’s be honest, this ain’t summer! Last year I was totally spoiled with Spanish sunshine and a couple weeks ago I was desperately craving some Vitamin sea. Rather than bitch about the rain, I booked an impromptu ticket to Ibiza. After visiting the majority of Spain’s most popular destinations, I can honestly say Ibiza’s […]

Though it may not impress the hipsters in Kreuzberg or the trendsetters in neighboring Prenzlauer Berg, Mitte seems to have it all. Here, abandoned graffitied buildings sit adjacent to modern contemporary homes. Sprightly young families sip on freshly […]
If a restaurant is only going to do one thing, they better do it well. Dada Falafel does exactly that. Like any falafel joint, for just €4 you can get a falafel sandwich to go, but a true falafel enthusiast will grab a seat on the sunny terrace and enjoy. How to order If you’re in a hurry, […]
A real blogger would’ve been at the opening of the new and anticipated Moco Amsterdam a month and a half ago, but let’s be honest, I’ve been busy. Doing what you ask? I don’t know? Drinking excessive amounts of Heineken in Vondelpark and binge watching Mindy Project season four on Hulu, perhaps. Today, I finally made the […]
Between the Singel Canal and the Prinsengracht Canal are nine tiny streets known in Amsterdam as De 9 Straatjes. In addition to great bars and cafes, shopping on the Nine Streets is outstanding. There is a great assortment of eclectic concept shops, designer boutiques, gift stores and art galleries worth checking out on an afternoon in the […]
