Paphos was our first trip together, so we were looking for something affordable for the end of October. We wanted to travel during the low season, but still hoped to find a place warm enough to enjoy the sea. That’s how we ended up choosing Paphos and it turned out to be a great decision!
Everyone tells you to skip Panajachel and stay in San Marcos or San Pedro instead. I based myself in Pana for three days, took the boat out every morning, and got the painted houses, the art galleries and the best view on the lake without packing up once.
A birthday gift. A weekend getaway. A first-ever trip abroad. Turns out it was all three! The otherworldly “Land of Fire and Ice” inspired my soul to pursue traveling the world. My long-awaited return to Iceland would be equally special, sharing my favorite country with the special lady who stole my heart. Geothermal hot springs, roaring waterfalls, black-sand beaches, dramatic landscapes, and adorable puffins made this short holiday one for the ages.
Beautiful place for a couples' road trip! We decided to plan our own trip rather than do the usual Dubrovnik and coastal route, and had a great time. We were even lucky enough to have a friend in the area who was able to show us around some local spots. https://couplestravelstories.ca/7-day-itinerary-croatia/
The rare chance to board down an active volcano brought me to this underrated Central American gem. Wild Pacific waves, motorbiking around a volcanic island inside a freshwater lake, and soaking up the sunshine at a laid-back surfer hub made the week-long adventure unforgettable.
Everyone treats Antigua as the place you sleep before you climb something. I gave it seven days, watched Fuego erupt over the rooftops before breakfast, and got my first earthquake in a three-story bar at midnight.
I went to school here and lived here for a period of time! I wanted to share some of the best spots in this cute, quirky town that has been the subject of songs.
I was called to officiate some basketball games at the camp, with the camp’s basketball team “Dream team” playing against two other teams from Lilongwe city.
Visiting the refugee camp was enlightening and thee was a lot of learning. Aside the basketball, the communion with the people was exquisite.
Everyone skips Coban on the way to Semuc Champey. I gave it two nights instead, walked into a 450-year-old procession by accident, and did the whole route on local buses for a quarter of what the shuttles charge.
Ever heard of artistic serenity? Yeah, that’s what I was looking for. Cultural ancestral inspiration into my soul, to forge on. Initially it was just a trip to a national park, and ended up being diverted to a full vacay. An unexpected adventure.
This was my second time traveling through the Balkans, a region I absolutely love. After exploring Albania, I continued my journey to Ohrid, North Macedonia, to discover one of the oldest lakes in Europe and experience this beautiful part of the Balkans.
My husband and I went on a delayed honeymoon here and made it a trip down the Portuguese coast to surf, relax, and be in the warmth coming out of Scottish winter!
I decided to go on a solo trip for my birthday (again, big surprise!) and wanted to go back to Colombia. It became a second home to me after my first time there and I was so excited to see the families I met in the surrounding islands and make new life long friends like how I did back in 2025. Cartagena is the kind of place where you can't stay a stranger for long, and I wanted to spend my birthday somewhere that already felt like mine.
Victoria is a great easy getaway from Seattle. It has the most restaurants per capita of any city in Canada and is within a short drive of the world-renowned Butchart Gardens.
