There are so many reasons to visit the Azores right now and that’s just one of them.

This is a sponsored post. As a young female solo traveler who likes to take risks, I was never worried about any health risks while I was traveling because I always had the mentality that “nothing would happen to me”. I was so confident about this that I wouldn’t even buy health insurance and my…
After backpacking a month and a half in Colombia, my biggest recommendation is a place that I’d never heard of until I got to Colombia – La Guajira desert. There are so many things to see and places to visit in Colombia so it’s hard to choose if you have a limited amount of time…
