Joshua Tree Travel Guide (24 Hours)
Bearing the high heat and blazing sun, I found myself driving three hours east to the desert on my first solo trip to camp out in Joshua Tree. I was very excited to spend the next 24 hours experiencing new adventures and learning about one of the most popular parks in the United States, but also nervous for camping and the ever-rising temperatures. From the minute I arrived to the minute I started making my way back to Los Angeles, I knew I was going to return to Joshua Tree as it only took a day to fall in love with the park, the town and all it has to offer.
RIU Resort Montego Bay, Jamaica
It had been a couple of years since I last stayed at a resort, and it happened to be with the same girls I traveled to Jamaica with!

Let’s unpack some highlights and details about RIU Palace Montego Bay.
Economy Seat Items To Make Your Flight More Comfortable
As much as we would love to be comfortable in business class getting served fancy drinks and delicious meals, usually our trip budget or miles can never cover flying luxuriously or very comfortably…sometimes extra legroom is still not the most comfortable although still better than being cramped. Below I have listed a few items I like to keep in my carry-on or personal bag to make my flight enjoyable (or even bearable) no matter how long the flight time is.
Hotel on the Beach in Positano: Covo Dei Saraceni
In Positano, almost all the accommodations are situated on top or in the middle of the hill where you are constantly climbing up and down stairs. We chose to stay at the beautiful beach front hotel, Cavo Dei Saraceni. As beach vacationers, we couldn’t be happier with the hotel as it has the most gorgeous view of the town, a pool and inches away from the beach.

Ultimate Travel Guide for Corfu, Greece
The Ionian Islands are not usually the first islands people think of when traveling to Greece. While Mykonos and Santorini take all the popularity, I believe the most stunning islands in Greece are in fact, the Ionian Islands. Corfu, also known as Kerkyra, must be the most scenic, beautiful, and adventurous island of them all. From day trips to uninhabited islands, partying until the morning, or cliff jumping into the clear waters, Corfu is a giant playground for everyone to enjoy.
TSA Precheck & Global Entry, Are They Worth It?
The post discusses the benefits of TSA Precheck and Global Entry statuses for frequent travelers. TSA Precheck simplifies security procedures within the U.S., saving time and hassle. Meanwhile, Global Entry facilitates faster processing through Customs when returning to the U.S. from abroad and includes TSA Precheck. Both statuses have a validity of five years. Application processes for both are described, with Global Entry process being lengthier. TSA Precheck costs $80 while Global Entry is priced at $100. However, certain credit cards offer cover for these fees. Whilst the programs have occasional inconveniences, they largely benefit regular travelers.
