The Best Weekend in Abaco

For the entire year, I had been longing for an out island vacation. However, being busy with work, friends and the random things that come up in life I didn’t plan a trip and thought I would probably do it for my birthday or later on in the year. October or later seemed too far though, so one hot summer night, mid July I messaged my friend (when I should have been sleeping) about going to Abaco, Eleuthera or Exuma for the August Monday holiday. The next morning, I woke up to her saying that Abaco sounded great. In my disbelief, I asked if she was serious because I was serious and I was ready to book everything right now — and did! We booked flights and found a cute Airbnb in Marsh Harbour that same day. We had such a fun time and I’m so happy we went. Here’s everything we got up to.

Exploring Europe: My 3 Day Paris Itinerary

I finally visited Paris, the city of love! Well…technically, this was my second time in the city but my first “real” visit. As a child, I visited Paris for about 2 days, but didn’t get the opportunity to explore because my parents made me stay in the hotel. I remember walking to a mall nearby and having McDonald’s; so much for embracing French culture right? On the night we were supposed to leave, our flight was postponed to the following day due to some mechanical issues and the airline paid for us to stay in a hotel overnight. In the hallway next to our room was a glass window, I remember being so excited to see the Eiffel Tower lit up and I’ve been dreaming of seeing those twinkling lights up close ever since.
