Santo Domingo was my dream. I loved exploring the Colonial Zone and wandering down the streets that were lined with colorful buildings and houses. The streets were bustling, there were people wandering around, and it was full of life. When you travel to the Southwest Dominican Republic, odds are you’ll be flying in and out of the international airport in Santo Domingo. So the city is a great place to end your trip. I suggest spending two nights in the city…
You might think that because the Southwest Dominican Republic is a bit off of the beaten path, it might be hard to find decent accomodations there. But that is definitely not the case.

There are certain countries that I have traveled to, but I don’t feel as if I have actually seen the country. Dominican Republic was one of those places. That is, until now.

When I visited, I spent two weeks exploring. During those two weeks in Japan I just scratched the surface. In fourteen days I traveled to five different cities. I did touristy things and I wandered around the streets getting lost (which is the best way to see…

I was happy to explore a new country, one that hadn’t been on my radar before this opportunity presented itself. I was also excited to get back to Asia. But, I like to be as real as possible with you. I did feel a bit isolated because of the language barrier and…
One of the first things that I do when I decide on a new destination is figure out whether or not I’m going to get my fill of street art. When I found out I was going to be in Taiwan for two weeks, and Taipei for a large majority of that, I knew I needed to scope it out. I spent hours on google and Pinterest, but unfortunately, I was unable to find much. Luckily, one of my favorite things…
