What was the most important thing you have ever forgotten on a vacation? My answer is my DSLR camera. It is inevitable- I ALWAYS forget something! I thought this was the biggest mistake I had ever made. Luckily, I was wrong. Forgetting my “fancy” camera actually forced me to have a blast while using my iphone camera to take pictures at the Chinese Lantern Festival located at the Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens in North Carolina. I had SO MUCH FUN playing with the different settings on my phone which I wasn’t to familiar with. The results…. some really unique snapshots of handmade, life-sized (or larger) sculptures called “The Wild”. Travel around the world with me …. (more…)

I literally just returned from a trip to Iceland hours ago. I don’t even know where to start… Words alone can not describe the dramatic and majestic splendor of the landscape I experienced, in conjunction with the inherent respect and awe for the smallest details of the nature. I have traveled to 20 countries so far, and Iceland- by far, is one of the most beautiful and inspirational places I have ever been to. I traveled with my husband and 5 other close friends around the Ring Road which circles the country. Albeit only a 10 day journey, a mere fraction of the lifetime you can spend in Iceland and still not see it all, we got to see and experience such a variety of what the country has to offer. I know one thing for sure as I try to process what I saw on this amazing trip…. Iceland- I will see you again soon. Ég mun sjá þig aftur fljótlega….. Here’s our 10 day journey around Iceland, aka Niceland…..

I recently traveled to Denmark… ALL OVER Denmark. I have to admit that it is one of the most beautiful and interesting places I have ever been. I only had 10 days on my solo adventure to the country, but in those 10 days, I truly feel as though I got such an authentic taste of the culture and saw so many amazing sites. The country is quite small covering 16,574 sq. miles. The compact size, plus the AMAZING public transport system, allowed me to travel from Copenhagen in the east, to Ribe in the west, then all the way to Skagen and Grenen, at the far north of the country. Along my route, I saw and did many things that I believe might be some of the most breathtaking and fascinating things I will ever see in my lifetime.
