15 Awesome Taipei Things to Do in 3 Days

Taipei had been on my “To-Go List” for a really long time, and I’m so glad I finally went! I’d heard nothing but great things from people, between the amazing food at the night markets, to the unique cultural towns on the outskirts!

Madagascar Untouched Day 1&2: Antananarivo and Ambalavao

Madagascar has been at the top of my bucketlist for years now. I’m not going to lie, it mostly claimed a spot due to my obsession with the cartoon movie Madagascar, but after doing more research, I came up with a lot of better reasons as well!
