Arrival in Cartagena, Colombia
The journey filled with oops, face palm moments, embarrassment, exhilaration, exhaustion, excitement. But I am in love with this city. We are kindred spirits.
Is the test mandatory? Test or No Test
Ethically you should test! Let’s face it, the test is not cheap and if it isn’t mandatory it’s a price tag that is hard to swallow…but Just Do It!
Travel Safety Plan
Planning for adventures is under control but what about travel safety for a digital nomad?
Planning for arrival in Cartagena, Colombia
Groceries and Tours for Days: It’s always tough on arrival day for what to do when you don’t get there until dinner time. First thing is obviously checking into the accommodations and figuring out what you are going to eat for dinner.
So that just happened
When lemons make margaritas! How the worst news is actually the best. 8 hours worth of phone calls and hold times and it turns out that the world has a plan for me and I am loving its plan…hiccups and bumps included.
Forbidden Vancouver Tours
I really truly highly encourage locals to indulge in these tours, not only does it support local businesses but it is also a COVID friendly social activity. The tours are all outside, you get fresh air and exercise and enrich your knowledge of local history. Win Win!
I blame my parents
What if our brains required activation? Instead of the constant activate state that it is. What I mean is that we don’t actually have to turn it on and off. If we had to actually switch it on in the morning and turn it off at night…would we still experience the auto pilot state?
Let the light in
I am not entirely sure the purpose of this post to be fully honest, I just know that I needed to assist my thoughts in escaping from my brain.
Sit tight folks…something is coming
Something is coming…but not yet. So cool your jets top gun…it’s almost time!
Why Malaga…you tell me
Ugh, Malaga, Spain….
Seville is the epitome of amour
You will leave Seville feeling seduced by the intimacy of this moorish influenced centuries old traditional city. This is one Spanish city that is 100% Jackelyn Approved. It’s been decided, this is my favourite city in Spain.
A little TLC goes a long way
I will tell you how I came across this pet food and why I was sold from the start.
Gangsters & Rumrunners in Canada
Why is Moose Jaw Canada’s Most Notorious City? Because this is where gangsters and rumrunners used to operate right under the nose of a shady police chief.
It’s a little thing called being respectful
Etiquette and respect are highly valued in Japan, and misbehaving tourists are increasingly causing frictions. In order not to annoy or offend the locals, foreign visitors should be familiar with at least the basic rules…
Matsushima Bay (松島) Pine Islands
Matsushima has been written about in poetry since ancient times. Its 260 small pine-covered islands arising from the pale blue sea leaves people at a loss for words.
Following Snow to Yokohama
Who did we follow to Yokohama you may ask? Well, we went to go see Snow, the Canadian reggae musician, rapper and singer. His 1992 single “Informer” spent seven weeks at No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot 100. That’s right, the Canadian Vanilla Ice.
Overnight Trip to Nikko 日光
The protector of travellers and children, a series of nearly 100 small stone effigies of the Buddhist at Kanman-ga-Fuchi Abyss. Nikko is a truly diverse destination. Ornate shrines coexist with towering peaks, dramatic waterfalls, rejuvenating hot springs and sublime cuisine.
Day Trip to Kamakura (鎌倉)
What do you get when you cross an 80s inspired rockabilly pompadour with a rat tail in the front over the forehead? Japanese High School boys hairstyles in the 90s. It was the most rad thing ever.
