I’m Alyssa Ramos, a full-time, self-made, solo traveler who’s been to over 85+ Countries, all 7 Continents, 7 World Wonders, 7 Wonders of Nature, plus I recently climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro and dove the Great Barrier Reef!
I created this life of full-time traveling completely on my own, and my goal is to give you as much information and inspiration as possible to make travel happen for you too!
Has your wanderlust been fueled for the best things to see in Scotland lately? Have you been daydreaming about the green cliffs, charming flower-framed storefronts, and Goldendoodle-looking Highland cows you’ve been seeing on social media? Or maybe it’s the sexy characters on the Scotland-based show Outlander… Whatever your reason, it’s time to start...
Image via Flora & Fauna ICYMI, a record number of fires have been raging in the Amazon rainforest for the past three weeks, threatening life as we know it on earth. These fires are burning so intensely that local cities are completely engulfed in a dark haze. Meanwhile, NASA has reported that the fires are so large, they can be seen from space. In fact, Brazil’s...
You see so many incredible sights while traveling, but there’s something especially breathtaking about seeing or experiencing natural phenomenons. Don’t get us wrong, there’s no denying how amazing man-made sights like the Eiffel Tower, the Great Wall of China and the Pyramids of Giza are. Because they are incredible sights that everybody needs to experience. But...
Yup. That definitely looks like a butt! You may be wondering why I’ve dedicated an entire post to explaining the Seychelles “Butt Nut” (AKA the Coco de Mer) but I really couldn’t help it. I’m absolutely fascinated with these giant coconuts that only grow in the Seychelles and look like human genitalia! I even bought one for $360! Before...
You’re welcome in advance for this Seychelles travel guide! I’s everything I WISH I could have read and known before I went! If I knew what I’m about to tell you, I would have spent more days on La Digue for sure. I also would have planned my activity logistics better! I spent way more time on the main island of Mahé, and also driving around it than...
You’ve probably seen some insane homes around the world while traveling. From beautiful villas in Bali to seaside cottages in France to massive mansions in the Hollywood Hills. You might think you’ve seen it all, but we’ve found some even more insane homes from around the world that you probably haven’t seen yet (and definitely need to see). These homes will...
Doing a Vancouver to Banff road trip had been high on my bucket list for years ever since I first saw those stunning photos of Lake Louise. (Be sure to check out my camera gear suggestions if you want to be sure you capture the amazing lake colors!) Of course, back then I had no idea that the stunning Gatorade-blue lake was called Louise, or that there were several...
Did you know that I pack for trips largely depending on what colors to wear in my travel photos that I know will stand out the most in the destination I’m going to? It’s a trick I’ve been doing for years to make my travel photos pop! Whether it’s a full dress or an easy accessory! Many people comment on my photos how they love that pop of...
Ahhh summer, the time for doing lots of travel, chilling by the pool and for picking up a couple of side hustles. Now you might be wondering why you would want to pick up a side hustle in the summer? A recent survey found that nearly half of all-American workers take part in the gig economy, earning an average of $1122 per month from their side hustle. With that...
Between Botswana ending its five-year ban on elephant hunting and giraffes being considered for the endangered species list, there’s good reason to be concerned about wildlife conservation in the face of climate change, poaching and overpopulation. Yet there are conservation success stories to tout, too – and eco-conscious wildlife tourism certainly plays a part...
