I have USAA for my bank account and they are usually absolutely fantastic! ATM fees are waived and I have never had any issues getting out cash. That all changed when I attempted to get out some money for the rest of my trip. I tried 5 different ATMs and they all failed! I googled…

First Full Day in Hong Kong
Once again, hanging out with a local means some days are just another day to hang out and enjoy each other’s company. Leslie took me to Wan Chai Market which is full of street vendors selling everything from turtles to cell phone cases and everything in between. I found a super cute pair of shoes…
Taipa Village
Just behind the glitz and glamour of the Cotai Strip is a tiny little town called Taipa Village. Macau was a former Portuguese colony and returned to China in 1999 making it a melting pot of food influenced by both cultures. Taipa Village is the perfect little area to get a taste of the history…
I’m in Vegas…I Mean Macau
After a glorious night of sleep (10pm-11am) I felt like I was ready to take over the world! Let’s be honest, I was still feeling jet lagged and could probably have slept for another day. Leslie and I got our day started and headed to lunch at Festiva in the adjacent hotel. This was no…
It Seemed Like a Good Idea…
I was heading to Maui and looked at a map and thought to myself, Maui is on the way to Asia, let’s find some good airfare. Good airfare was found but the route was out of hand! Note to self, check the route prior to purchasing the ticket. After a glorious 8 days in Maui…
Tigers and Deer and Safaris oh my!
A sunrise call time to jump on a safari was much easier to wake up for than I thought it would be! Everyone had said, don’t expect to see a tiger because it does not happen all the time. So, we loaded into our jeeps and were off on our morning safari to Ranthambore National Park….
Driving From Agra to Ranthambhore
After the come down of excitement from seeing the Taj Mahal, I was completely happy and not expecting anything else from the trip and just going with the flow. We got on the bus for the 7 hour journey from Agra to Ranthambhore which I was not looking forward to as I had already finished…
A Drive From Delhi to Agra
Jetlag is no joke! I woke up bright and early with energy to go to the gym and rocked a workout (I am not a morning person) before a 4-5 hour bus ride to Agra. The thing about these tours that I find pretty great is that you get to see so much in such…
A Quick Trip to India starting in New Delhi
I am not usually the type to go on tours since I like to take my time places and experience things on my own. But when a 12 day tour to India comes up for about $1000, you take the trip! I have traveled with Worldspree before when I went to China and had an…
Gili Islands
Although Bali is an island, there are plenty of other islands to visit within a few hour boat ride. I took a couple of days to visit the Gili Islands and see what all the talk was about. I visited the main island, Gili Trawangan and spent two days just relaxing. I booked a hostel in order…
