Looking Up: Striking Architecture Around The World
After seeing photos of famous cities empty and almost deserted as a result of halted travel lately, I couldn't help but think of my favorite reason to travel, the best part of exploring any city. Architecture. Even when people aren't around to fill streets or marvel at impressive landmarks, cities and their architecture remain. Architecture [...]
Berlin in Bloom: Germany’s Capital Through My Lens
Hey readers, Berlin has always been high on my travel list, but the timing to go never seemed right. The first few things that always came to mind -- besides its undeniable place in history -- were its gritty night life and alternative culture and art.

The Algarve, Portugal
Standing on the cliffs of Sagres was a breathtaking feeling. Watching the massive waves meet the coast, it was easy to see how people thought this was the end of the world.

Trekking through lush jungle, surfing in [...]
Singapore: The Urban Jungle
George Town, Penang
George Town, Penang is a quirky show of Malaysia's artistic and culinary pride. Ask anyone and they'll say this city reigns supreme as far as street food and street art are concerned. The island may only be three hours from the Thai border, but it retains a character all its own, not to be mistaken with [...]
Cameron Highlands: A Green Escape
There's a place in Malaysia where vibrant green hills extend as far as the eye can see, and high altitudes and cooler temperatures lift the cumbersome tropical heat off your shoulders. In Malaysia, there's no such thing as seasons, but this is as close to fall as you're going to get; there's respite from the searing, [...]
