So, you want to spread your wings and chase after your wanderlust? Thinking about backpacking across Europe? Or maybe South America? Maybe you’re going everywhere!

But how do you start? How do other people do it? How much planning is involved? Is it for me???

Today I am joined by a fellow travel girl and friend, Scarlett. She is a fellow Winnipegger, a travel enthusiast and has been way more countries than I have! Jealous? Maybe... One of my favorite memories is when we met up in Edinburgh, Scotland one evening and went on a Ghost Tour. We both happened to be backpacking through the UK at the time, and our paths crossed.

Together, we will share the basics of what Backing packing is, what it entails, some tips, and how you can make it your own kind of travel journey. Let’s begin!

I got lasers shot into my eyeballs! And I'm going to tell you all about it.

I had lasik surgery on April 30th. It was something I had been thinking about for at least 5 years, and seriously considering it for the last 2 or 3 years. It's a bit crazy how I ended up finally saying 'yes, I'll do it' and taking the plunge!

Basically, I just went to an eye clinic (here in Egypt) because I thought there was something wrong with my right eye. One doctor checked, said everything was normal with my vision (or as normal as it could be with near-sightedness) but I wasn't convinced so they took me a specialist.

If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you will know that we spent a lovely week back on the Red Sea! This time, in Sharm El Sheikh!  I am here to tell you everything about it, and how it can be a wonderful beach getaway holiday for you too! Get your swim suit, and let's dive in, shall we?
