I decided to take a quick trip to San Francisco on my way to visit my parents a few weeks ago, who recently moved to the Los Angeles area. Besides visiting some friends and getting a feel for the area on my own, I really didn’t have a set agenda for coming to the bay [...]
Where to start?! The past few days have been incredible. While I’m thankful to be sitting on a plane to Texas, I’m just blown away by what I was able to experience recently. Taylor (or should I say Heleen) and I ended up spending the last leg of our trip in Punta del Diablo and [...]
Hola, me sscchhhaaamo Helen.
Hi, this is Michelle’s dear friend and travel partner during her time abroad in BA. I apologize for the length but considering this is my debut (and only) post, I advise you to read on. My name is Taylor, as most of you well know, but while I’m South of the equator [...]
This post is dedicated to my lovely friends from Austin who have quite accurately equated my facial expressions to Jasmine on her magic carpet ride. I can’t argue this. Every time I interact with a local, or South American for that matter, Taylor quietly sings “A Whole New World” behind me, in hopes of enhancing [...]

experiencing a trip like this with her at where we are in our lives
is truly a blessing. Maybe I’ve [...]
These past few weeks have come nothing short of exciting. All these changes and life transitions are scary, yet thrilling. It’s tough leaving an awesome four years of college, but it’s also exciting to enter into a brand new chapter of life.
Exciting news #1: I had my last day at the coolest job any student [...]
Over my last Christmas break (as a student), my parents took my brother, sister, sister’s boyfriend, and me to the beautiful island of Kauai, Hawaii for 8 blissful days. We stayed on the south side of the island at the luxurious Marriott Waiohai Beach Club Resort on Poipu Beach. It was a trip I’ll remember [...]
Upon reviewing my blog, I realized I haven’t really touched much on the place I’ve called “home” the past few weeks, Ajijic. This little pueblito that sits right on Lake Chapala is a really well-kept secret. Everything about it screams traditional, Mexican culture, from the architecture to the people. Surprisingly, there are quite a few [...]
