I stumbled upon Curacao in the most millennial way. I was in need of an island getaway with my best friend. We originally wanted to go the Dominican Republic, but it turned out to be over budget for the both of us. I zoomed into the Snapchat Maps feature and browsed random islands–BOOM! My finger […]
Silly me to have realized that I’ve been to Montreal twice now, and besides my photography journey through the Jean-Talon Market, I haven’t written a proper travel post on the city. The city is a magical escape from NYC, that will make you feel like you’re in a European city in less than a two […]
In Dubai you will find international cuisine from all over the world. Whenever I visit, I’m usually spoiled with delicious Biryani and South Asian cuisine. During my last visit I needed a break from the indulgence of meats and strong spices, and I craved a healthy, vegan detox. I found the perfect place: Wild and […]
How I got there: As I mentioned in my Amsterdam blog post, I was able to see everything I wanted to see there in a matter of five days. I decided to re-route my ticket and leave back to NY via London, from Brussels. I booked a €25, two-hour bus ride to Brussels from Amsterdam. […]
I finally had the chance to revisit Rome, Italy. I lived in the city for three years when I was in Middle School, but I was never a tourist in my own city. I rediscovered Rome for the first time, and doing it at 22-years-old was a lot of fun. I stayed in a great […]
The drive to Naranag from Srinagar was a site itself. I stopped at spots along the way because the scenic views made me feel like I was in another world.
Men and women have both grown to fantasize and believe what or how relationships are supposed to be instead of accepting what they really are and working to make them the best they can be.
Barcelona is the cosmopolitan capital of Spain that’s bustling with excitement. It’s almost a three and half hour train ride into Barcelona Sants from Madrid’s Puerta Atocha train station. Take a Renfe train to get to any city in Spain in the fastest amount of time. For me, even tough Barcelona offered more sight seeing, […]
I finally traveled to Spain because for some wonderful reason tickets from NY were only $400 round trip. My first stop was Madrid which was culturally exciting, rich, and vibrant. There’s no shortage of tourist attractions from the Royal Palace to Plaza de Espana, and my taste buds were happy with the pleathora of resturant choices and […]
Staying in a hostel before your 30s is the best thing you can do for yourself. I’m not trying to be discriminatory towards age; I only advise you stay in a hostel before 30 because most people who stay in hostels are college students or young adults. If you feel comfortable talking about “Brad’s ex” […]
So every time I’m bored you’ll either find me scrapbooking, re-decorating bits of my apartment, or shopping for decor items that will add a new flare to my apartment. I’ve been doing this every week for the past three months now. I’ve been finding accents to add into my bedroom, bathroom, living room, etc. I just finished redecorating […]
Located around Philadelphia City Hall, from Thanksgiving through Christmas Eve, the German Christmas Village, a holiday market, comes to town every year. Over 80 vendors gather to sell authentic goods, food, Christmas gifts and ornaments from all over the world in Philly. The food is European, mainly German-based cuisine. I visited the Christmas village to see […]
If you’re living in NYC and need to get away, Philly is a colonial town that reminded me a little bit of France, because of its architecture, and Boston because of it’s charming scenery. An hour’s train ride from Penn Station with another half-hour from Trenton to Philly, it’s worth all the food options and culture. […]
In order to land your dream job and develop a career, you must always continue to brand yourself. You have to do sometimes do everything to network and market your worth, and even if you haven’t had an Ivy-League schooling, or been to school at all, for that matter, there are always ways to sell […]
As a semi-fresh graduate, adulting is finally hitting me hard. The utter realization that I can’t go party every other weekend or go to “day drinks,” is highly depressing. It’s depressing because I’m finally realizing all the things I missed out on in my college years. It took me until senior year to finally start […]
1. We need to stop hating our parents. I’m so tired of hearing the phrases, “ugh you’re ruining my life” or “she’s out to get me,” coming out of teens and millennials when they talk about their parents. We need to realize our parents are just doing what they think is right. You might not […]
https://www.theodysseyonline.com/you-need-stop-limiting-yourself Stop being scared to try something different, or take on two things at once. Hey, you! I hope if you’re reading this you’re doing a multitude of things today or tomorrow. I hope you’re doing something to better your career, to challenge yourself, to give back, and make money. May I remind you that […]
The last phone conversation I had with my father was over planning a trip to Puerto Rico. We were both eager to travel to the beautiful island and when I finally got the chance in June, it did not disappoint. One thing I can still taste is the food. The seafood in Puerto Rico was […]
Have you ever had friends question why you do certain things like, “Why do you do that, “You shouldn’t have done this,” and “She/he said that you shouldn’t have said that”? Do you have friends that make you feel like you need to watch what you say around others? In fact, some even tell you […]
