Possibly the Best Paella Cooking Class in Barcelona

January 3, 2020 by mvg417

This is the story of my first overseas travel cooking class with Just Royal Bcn in Barcelona learning to cook paella. One of my favorite things to do when traveling to a foreign country is trying local dishes.  I haven’t exactly done a poll, but I’m assuming that’s what most people would put as their […]

Yellow Hostel Review – My 1st Day in Rome w/ a Hookup Story

September 20, 2018 by mvg417

Again with my all too honest travel stories. The first time I ever stayed in a hostel was in Rome.  Plenty of websites had said that The Yellow was the best party hostel in Rome, so I was back and forth with the idea.  This was going to be my first time doing solo travel, […]

Everyone has their […]

Solo Traveling Date in London | The One that Got Away

July 5, 2018 by mvg417

This is my first time writing a more personal travel story so bear with me 🙂 I’m willing to bet that most, definitely not all, solo travelers are single.  One of the reasons you are able to hop on a plane and travel to faraway places is because you have more free time and don’t […]

San Diego – Travel Blogging Live

June 7, 2018 by mvg417

UPDATE – This was a failed experiment.  I think it will be easier to live blog while I’m traveling solo and not when I’m hanging out with my brother that I only see a couple of times per year.  I just don’t want to be rude and waste my time on the phone. June 6 […]

May 2, 2018 by mvg417

How I Got Obsessed with Travel – My First Solo Backpacking Europe My first “big trip” was a 10-day solo backpacking trip through Europe.  I haven’t left the country since 10 years ago when I went to Puerto Rico for spring in college.  I’ve always liked “traveling” but this is the first major experience that […]
