I apologize for not writing a post in a very long time! My work dragged me away from blogging and instead tied me to a desk where I spent my time slaving over books and consuming an obscene amount of coffee. (And to think I thought those University days were over!). However it was all worth […]
I absolutely love planning a vacation. Reading blogs on the top things to do, best hotels to stay at and restaurants to dine in, and then going there to make my own little reviews.

The shiny skyscrapers perfectly complimented the bright-blue water dazzling in the sun. We stopped at Navy Pier, right […]

During my recent stay in Mykonos, my sister and I had the most wonderful day (if not a little too windy) wondering through the cute town of Mykonos. The compact seaside town is filled with little, winding alleys, stylish boutique stores and cafes. It felt like we we exploring a blue and white themed make-believe village, […]
