Destinations

To kick off my late summer travels, I flew down to Nashville, Tennessee, a city I’ve been wanting to visit ever since watching The Thing Called Love with Sandra Bullock …

Read what I have been up to in the past month, where I traveled to, what went well and what went wrong, and where I am off to next!

This week I had the best layover ever: 12 hours in Istanbul! I got to catch up with my friend Katie, eat yummy Turkish food and to check out a cool neighborhood I hadn’t been to yet.

I am looking back on my travels over the past four weeks, what went well and what didn’t, lessons I’ve learned this month, what’s new with Globetrottergirls and what’s next for me.

This past week was all about temple hopping as I explored the ancient cities of Sri Lanka’s cultural triangle. The most remarkable sight: The Jetavanaramaya Stupa!

I spent my last week in Cambodia on the glorious beaches in the south. Otres Beach remains my favorite one, and I enjoyed a few wonderfully lazy beach days there.

We finally ticked a huge item off our travel wishlist – the Uyuni Salt Flats in Bolivia. The best surprise was that the 3-day jeep tour through the Altiplano was about way more natural beauty and adventure than we had expected.

This week’s Polaroid features one of the most imposing peaks of the Andes mountains: Cerro Fitz Roy in Patagonia, Argentina. Check out this spectacular mountain!

Singapore surprised us with stunning architecture, vibrant city life and an eclectic mix of cultures. Marina Bay Sands was one of our favorite buildings – and this is why…

Who knew that French baguettes were so popular in Cambodia? Even though the French left over 50 years ago, there are daily baked baguettes in the markets everywhere. Ooo la la!
