Aloha! While planning our trip to Hawaii we had a really hard time deciding which ones of the 9 islands to visit first, but we knew from the very beginning that Kauai was going to be one of them.
It takes just a quick search on Google for photos from this island to have you convinced in seconds that this is a place you really must visit!
If you feel like living in a real life fairytale for a few days and start believing that magic does exist, go visit the enchanted land of Cappadocia in Turkey.
Full disclosure: I always get hungry when I write this kind of articles!
Chris and I are both huge foodies so when we research a travel destination we always check out where and what to eat too. We always, I mean ALWAYS try the local food. The best way to experience a destination is by visiting its famous landmarks, meeting the locals and trying out the traditional dishes.
Who here has a bucket list of travel destinations or travel experiences? I certainly do!
One thing on our travel bucket list, which we can tick as done, was to drive on the famous Route 66.
Aloha! Hawaii has been on our bucket list for a while, so what better time to visit than now!? All we knew about Hawaii was basically from movies and that it is far far away, so a lot of research took place before we decided on which islands to visit. There are 8 major islands in Hawaii, 7 of which
you can explore.
In our travels so far we discovered that the things/places you least expect impress you the most. We would have never imagined that the desert in California would be this impressive, that it is defined by more than sand and wind, and that it actually holds some unique and incredible life, like the Joshua Trees.
Chris has always been fascinated by the hustle and bustle of a big city, so I have to give it to him that visiting Hong Kong was purely his idea. I did not know what to expect from this concrete jungle but I was left in awe by this intricate cityscape.
To be honest Sri Lanka was never on our travel bucket list, however while planning a trip to the Maldives we had a layover in Colombo, so we decided to extend it and give Sri Lanka a chance.
Our trip to Sri Lanka was on a very tight schedule because we wanted to see the most important sights and we only had a very short time, due to this we had to change locations almost every day, sleeping in different hotels or resorts.
Maldives has been very high on my bucket list, so when we decided to go there for my birthday we wanted it to be perfect. We had in mind the full Maldivian experience, with the lovely over water bungalows and the perfect blue water.
Some might hear of the Caribbean blue...Some might see that it is true...
Our trip to the Caribbean was a very spontaneous decision. We had a few vacation days left so in the spur of a moment we got the plane tickets, booked our accommodation and one month later we were in the Dominican Republic.
