Mexico City has so much to offer to the on-slot of new tourists it’s been receiving as of recent, but one of the most notorious attractions that shouldn’t be overlooked is Museo Frida Kahlo in the neighborhood of Coyoacán. The Blue House served as Frida’s home from childhood till death, as well as her art studio, healing […]

Breath of Fresh Air(bnb)

If you’re a hospitality & tourism nerd like me then you’re probably aware of the controversy that surrounds Airbnb… and if you’re not, well I don’t blame you it’s not the normal type of news that makes headlines. I could go on for days* about the arguments for and against the homestay website and while […]

Middle Eastern Munchies

To wrap up things in the UAE, we took an *abra ride across the Dubai Creek into Deira where we meet up with Frying Pan Adventures for our Middle Eastern food pilgrimage! I’m not very familiar with many Middle Eastern dishes and what is travel worth if you don’t experience the local cuisine?! *Side note: I […]

A Broad Range of Artwork

It’s not Braude, it’s BrOde said Hermione Granger, I think. The Broad is the newest addition to Downtown LA’s museum offerings – just look for the building that resembles swiss cheese! It opened only three years ago and has a stunning collection of all forms of art. It’s even with a work of art – the curvy […]

Try the World (From the Comfort of Your Home!)

Subscription boxes are such an addiction. I mean, who doesn’t like surprising themselves with gifts in the mail that they forgot about?! It really is the latest craze, and I’m all for it. My latest favorite subscription box is actually one I wrote a Career Research Paper on and gave a presentation to my class […]
