The Perfect 10 Day Japan Itinerary: Osaka, Kyoto, and Tokyo
Japan has always been on my bucket list of places to visit, and it has etched itself into a special corner of my heart with experiences that exceeded all of my expectations. During my 10-day trip, I was captivated by the enchanting blend of traditional and modern elements. The food was absolutely mouthwatering - every meal was delicious. Japan's reputation for politeness and a deep culture of respect proved true, as we encountered world-class customer service everywhere we went. The country is incredibly clean - even Tokyo - which is surprising for its size. I could go on with how much I love Japan, but it is truly one of those places that you need to experience yourself to fully understand and appreciate it.

Discovering Portugal: A 2 Week Journey through Lisbon, Porto, Madeira and Lagos
A decade ago, I took my first solo journey to Porto and became captivated by its charm, rich history, incredible views and magnificent architecture. The enchanting city left me yearning for more, promising a return.
Last year, the opportunity to revisit Portugal unfolded and this time, I had the opportunity to share the beauty of the country with my boyfriend. Our Portuguese adventure took us from the historic cities of Lisbon and Porto to the adventurous island of Madeira. Finally, we reveled in the laid-back vibes of Lagos. From city exploration to coastal escapes, our vacation was an unforgettable cultural experience at every turn.
What made this trip truly memorable was the warmth and openness of the people. We befriended locals who enriched our experience, turning a visit into a genuine connection with the culture. Portugal, with its charm and hospitality, has become more than a destination; it's a collection of memories and friendships that has earned its spot as one of my all-time favorites. I fell in love with this country for countless reasons and my hope is that you, too, will discover its magic on your own adventure.
