Brazil

How Cheap Is Brazil?

I had heard Brazil is cheap, but just how cheap is it? I visited Rio de Janeiro and Foz do Iguaçu in January 2023, which is prime high season. As if January wasn’t already an extremely busy time to visit, I was there in early January, so also had to deal with the influx…

I Stayed At An All-Inclusive in Punta Cana… By Myself

Da Nang: Vietnam’s Hippest Beach Town

In the North, be expected to see what you probably imagine China looks like (rice terraces, a lot of green, smoggy, humid), verses the south is a bit more tropical (think…

Philippines

Coron vs. El Nido

I wasn't sure if I wanted to go to both Coron and El Nido, as they are both in Palawan and I have heard that they are both fairly similar. I ended up seeing both and am glad I did, because despite the similarities, they have some vast differences too. When you go to the Philippines,…

Planting Coral with Coral Gardeners

I had heard about a small organization called Coral Gardeners through a high-profile instagram account I follow (@gypsea_lust). She is notoriously known for posting pictures of her flawless perfect body with beautiful landscapes, but what really caught my eye was when she had planted coral in an effort to save our planet. I was immediately curious and…

What exactly is Tahiti?
