Hi there! My name is Skye and I travel around the world with my 12 year old daughter Riley. We are from the East coast of the USA and we try to take about 2 trips a year. Since I am a single mother safety is super important to me, BUT I try hard to never let fear dictate our adventures. So while we have had lots of fun I am always researching obsessively before we go! My daughter has dubbed our journeys “cautiously adventurous” and I think that is a perfect description and we have made it safely through 9 countries so far! So, I was determined to go to Marrakesh, Morocco! I had read a book a few years ago where the city was featured and I had my heart set on it ever since. However, as soon as I started saying that is where we were going to head I was told so many times how dangerous it was going to be and how two American females traveling alone couldn’t possibly make that trip safely.So I spent hours debating the trip. In the end I’m so glad we decided to go! Many people over look Mar...

Seven Days across Georgia I will always remember 27th of December as the day we fulfilled yet another travel dream. Years of waiting, hunting for affordable plane tickets and five hours on the bus and we were finally there-the heart of Georgia -Tbilisi.  We have left our backpacks at our flat and started strolling through the city. First impressions-mad drivers, amazing architecture and our first 'SUPRA'( dinner ). By accident we have found a small, inconspicuous looking restaurant, owned by an older Georgian Couple. Using first, English (not a word was useful), German, body language and finally Polish we have managed to order something to eat. What we did not know at that time was that this place would become our second home during our stay. The food, the ambiance and charm of its owners created something that I would call an ultimate dining experience.  Where to eat, what to eat and most def try CAFE NIKOLAZI, ANTON KATALIKOSI ST.34, TBILISI 0105, GEORGIA *Khachapuri -bread ...

Hi there, I'm Sophie. This year has been crazy and travelling hasn't been easy, but luckily I was able to escape the craziness for two weeks in July. I'll be taking you on a trip to Spain in this post.  After our trip to America had been cancelled, we decided to search for something a bit closer to home. We eventually booked an adventurous holiday in Spain and we would be driving through France to get there. We drove about four day sand we visited lots of beautiful cities on the way. Day 1 As we left the big cities for the Pyrenees, we knew we were getting close to our final destination. We drove through the mountains on narrow roads with hair pin turns. Not the best if you get carsick easily, but I survived! We drove through the little village Bourisp and stopped at a small bakery. They had the best snacks for on the road! Later on we drove through the tunnel of Aragnouet-Bielsa. In this tunnel you cross the border of France and Spain. Our final destination was coming ve...

Santorini is a Greek island known for its rolling cliffs studded with beautiful white houses, incredible sunsets and unrivalled views of the Aegean Sea. Santorini is far from being one of the largest islands in Greece and yet, it’s reputation for glowing views of endless blue and white attracts over 2 million tourists annually. I’ve been part of that large number on two separate occasions - in 2012 and 2018 - and already, I cannot wait to return. When planning a trip to Santorini, you want to be really careful to do your research into the area you want to stay in because not all of the island looks like the pictures you’ve seen on the front cover of every travel magazine. In fact, the blue and white houses on tall cliffs stand almost exclusively in Oia only and so, if living within that view is part of your Santorini dream, much of the island’s accommodation won’t be helpful to you. I say this from experience, having stayed in multiple parts of the island. Personally, my stay in Firost...
