ESCAPE TO A MAGICAL WINTER WONDERLAND IN ROVANIEMI, FINLAND
Visiting a place that is in the middle of nowhere is an experience in itself. Combine that with some magic, snow and reindeers. A trip to Rovaniemi feels like you landed on another planet, from the moment you start making your way there. The gateway to the Arctic.
CONQUERING ICELAND'S RING ROAD IN LESS THAN 5 DAYS
Driving around the entire circumference of Iceland was something on my bucket list since my first visit, as I fell in love with the country.
MAKING THE MOST OF A LAYOVER IN HELSINKI, FINLAND
I visited Helsinki years ago and at the time, it turned out to be one of my favorite cities in Europe. I can't help but remember the kindness of the restaurant owner I came across, as well as the amazing shopping I had done.
A FOODIE'S DREAM DESTINATION: GAZIANTEP, TURKEY
If you love food half as much as I do, then you have to add Gaziantep to your list.
Gaziantep was recognized as one of eight cities of gastronomy by UNESCO. The fact that there are only 8 cities in the world that was highlighted and given this title, is enough of a reason to consider visiting. The city is part of the Creative City Network. It is also one of the world's oldest cities.

It’s easy to spot a tourist abroad. Actually, it’s even easier to be that tourist.
You know, that tourist who walks around with a selfie stick, probably dressed in jeans and a I LOVE NY shirt (or a shirt of whatever place it is that they’re visiting), walking around with a map in hand and attempting to take one of those typical tourist photos. You know, the ones where people try to hard to do the same things everyone else is doing. The ones where they capture the picture of them pretending to be pushing the tower of Pisa up, or the one where they’re pretending be touching the tip of the Eiffel Tower?

REASONS TO ADD ALBANIA TO YOUR LIST
From not knowing where to go next, to ending up in Tirana, I was curious to learn more about this hidden gem of a country, located in the Balkans. But how did I end up in Albania in the first place
