I LOVE horses, especially magical-looking ones like the beautiful Icelandic “volcano horses” they have at Eldhestar. I got to ride one through an enchanting, possibly haunted little forest on a mountain in Iceland, and tried to take a video but the only way I could was by shoving the selfie stick in my jacket while I held on to the reins… I got some...
by Alyssa Ramos Traveling really isn’t as ridiculously expensive as you think, in fact there are plenty of affordable international trips you can and SHOULD take in 2015. Let’s get one thing clear first – if you suck at planning and that’s why you end up paying a shit ton of money when you travel, than that’s your fault. There IS a...
After you swim in between the crack that separates the 2 continent plates in Iceland, you get to “play” in the Silfra Lagoon (for as long as you can tolerate the cold haha) where there’s all of this fun neon green “troll hair”! Check out my experience snorkeling the Silfra Fissure with Dive.is here : “Snorkeling in Between 2...
This year’s birthday party was definitely the best one yet! It was a Midwinter’s Day soirée that started in the beautiful, sunny, Sunday afternoon at the breathtaking Tinsley Estate in Bel Air, and meandered on through the fiery sunset and into the evening. Gary Reisman captured the festivities, and even brought a drone to get aerial pics of the gorgeous...
Aside from my awful GoPro video skills, this is so cool to see how freaking clear the water was in the Silfra fissure in Thingvellir National Park!! I snorkeled with Dive.is in between the crack that separates the continental plates of Europe and America! If you’re interested, check out my blog post on the experience: “Snorkeling Between 2 Continents in...
Have you ever wondered what it feels like to swim in 2 degree glacier water? Check out my facial reaction when I took the plunge into the Silfra fissure in Thingvelir National Park in Iceland with Dive.is…I can’t remember if it’s the cold water or insanely awesome view of the continental divide that made my eyes bulge! Check out the full blog post...
I have a thing for jumping off things, so was excited to find this little gem in Santa Anita Canyon! It’s only about an hour from LA and has two cliffs you can jump from (this is the less-high/terrifying one) and even a natural waterslide!
See the full details on the blog post! “Hiking to Santa Anita Canyon Falls”
If you’re having trouble organizing your New Year’s resolutions for 2015, consider some of these. But more importantly, if you’re going to make them your New Year’s resolution, make a plan so that you can actually accomplish them. According to Forbes only 45% of people make New Year’s resolutions and only 8% accomplish them. Be the 8%...
by Alyssa Ramos We’ve all been there — inconveniently hungover on the morning that you’re supposed to be traveling. It sucks. A lot. But it’s not like you’re just going to rearrange your social life so you can be bright eyed and bushy tailed on your flight the next morning! You have to cheers with ALL of your friends, multiple times...
I couldn’t help but notice the large array of strange items that were for sale when I was in Thailand (from bags of fish juice, to wooden penises), so I wasn’t really surprised when I stumbled upon these little gems online. Of course my twisted mind saw one thing and led me on a highly amusing scavenger hunt to find more, so I hope you enjoy my efforts in...
