Mauritius is a beautiful island off the east coast of southern Africa that definitely needs to be on your bucketlist! I chose to visit it as part of my 2019 bucketlist quest to see the World’s best, and wasn’t disappointed! The scenery is similar to a mini-Hawaii, with lush mountains and a few waterfalls, plus endless clear blue beaches.The people are friendly...
Madagascar Day 6: Leaving Mikea and Learning More About Sapphire Sales Mikea Lodge, Madagascar Our stay in Mikea was short but oh so sweet! To be completely honest, I didn’t sleep much because my lucid dreaming was out of control due to the constant stimuli inside the tent, but the daytime experiences were worth it. (That was random of me to say but it means...
Before I start with my recap of our fourth and fifth day in Madagascar, I just want to say that I know my writing formatting is way off on these posts. I never write this long of titles or sentences (at least try not to), so apologies if the content has been somewhat hard to read! Moving right along! Here’s the main highlight days of the tour that Wau...
We woke up in Ambalavao, Madagascar at 6am to stunning views of textured mountains aglow with golden light from the rising sun. It was like getting presents on Christmas morning since we couldn’t see what was around us when we arrived at night! After a quick but delicious continental breakfast at the lodge complete with Citronelle tea, we set off for another 10 hour...

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! For me, I wanted to travel to Madagascar because of its rareness and ruggedness. I knew fully well that it would require a...
Continuing on with my 2019 bucketlist of traveling to some of the World’s most rare and unique islands, was a trip to Bazaruto archipelago off the coast of Mozambique in Africa. Initially I added this destination to my island bucketlist because I really wanted to see what I call the “Mashed Potato Sands” that swirl along the bright blue shore in certain areas, but...
Samoa has been on my bucketlist for quite some time now, and I’m beyond fulfilled after finally traveling there! Chances are if you’re reading this you already know where it is and what’s mostly there, but for generality, I’ll start from the top! For starters, there are two “Samoa’s” and they’re separated by the International Date Line; one that’s it’s own...

Of course, nothing screams summer music festival more than the one and only Coachella. The California sun is shining down on you and some of the world’s best artists are performing and...
If you’re looking for an exotic vacation destination that’s way more epic than the usual choices, check out Rarotonga in the Cook Islands! The Cook Islands don’t get as much publicity as they should in the U.S., and in my opinion it’s because the New Zealander’s and Australians like to keep it their own holiday secret! That’s...
