Yes, you read that correctly; Jose Cuervo has it’s own tequila train, and it is absolute #goals. It includes unlimited drinks and tequila tastings while it takes you to Tequila, Mexico. Welcome to the best Mexican vacation you will ever have. The genius locomotive experience picks you up in Guadalajara, and spends two hours chugging along while you booze it up...
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...
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!

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...
My number one bucketlist destination was and forever will have been ANTARCTICA! Not only in part because I wanted to reach all 7 continents before I turned 30, which I accomplished last December, but because it’s only of the few untouched areas of Earth that you can still see in a purely natural state! The ride over was ROUGH, as you can see in the video, but...
I have a bit of an obsession with chasing after and checking off my bucketlist items…so much so that I recently decided to get my greatest bucketlist checks tattooed on my forearm! It’s probably the most meaningful thing I’ve ever done for myself other than sending “Future Alyssa” postcards from Antarctica and Kilimanjaro saying how...
For everyone wondering which Antarctica itinerary and company I went with, this post is for you! Here you will find a general outline of the 10 Day “Discovering the 7th Continent” itinerary with the fantabulous Quark Expeditions! I specifically chose this itinerary because it was during the summer (December), it offered paddleboarding and kayaking, and it...
Now more than ever is the perfect time to take an epic, budget Arizona Utah roadtrip! Social distancing is high, wanderlust fulfillment is even higher, and chances are you need this time to get back in touch with yourself and nature! Plus, you can easily do this Arizona Utah roadtrip solo like I did! Trust me, it’s liberating! And if you need gear to take your...
