One Day in Dubai

Before I even begin this post, let's give a HUGE shoutout to Emirates Airlines. Guys, I'm not kidding...they are THE BEST AIRLINE I've ever flown. Crazy comfy seats, awesome customer service, insane airplane food (like better than meals I've eaten at actual restaurants; for example: Salmon with saffron couscous, roasted veggies and a lemon cake…

I wasn't really sure what to expect when going to Colombia. All I knew was I found a $139 one-way to Cartagena which was enough for me to want to see it (I mean I wanted to see it anyway, but a cheap flight is a cheap flight; thank you Skyscanner). I did minimal research…

Colombia My Mission

“You Shouldn’t Go to Colombia By Yourself”

I work day shifts at a bar in NYC, and its main patronage are dudes who throw back every ounce of beer in a can during their lunch breaks as they can to face going back to their 9-5s. I understand in a sense; I could never give in to the idea of sitting at…
