A Little About Me:

Aspiring world traveler. I like to immerse myself in the customs and mingle with the locals when I travel. I am a sucker for scenery, and trying new foods.

    Things To Do
    Edit

    I absolutely loved Dubai. Tour the red dunes sands, ride the camels, and take a day trip to Abu Dhabi. Totally worth the trip and experience. I booked the Red Dunes trip through OceanAir Travels via AirBnb booking. The cost was $43/per person and included transportation to and from hotel, Dune Bashing in the Lehbab Desert, riding camels, Dune Surfing, and delicious food. Well worth it. https://www.airbnb.com/experiences/105242 Our Abu Dhabi experience was also less than $50/person, and including transportation to and from hotel, and a visit to Shayed Mosque, Marina Mall, and the Presidential Palace. https://www.airbnb.com/experiences/395953

    Relaxation
    Edit

    Tulum exceeded my expectations. We didn't partake in the usual sightseeing that we usually do, however the nightlife and relaxation aspects were A1. Definitely recommend. Make sure you go to the main beach area. It is very hippy-ish. You can rent cabanas and have drink and food on the beach. There are also plenty of bars, shopping, massage parlors, and restaurants. Visti Gitano bar. Great experience, as well as great drinks. The drinks were a little pricey, however good. If prices are a problem, go to the hole in the wall bars beach side, where you can get shots for $1 apiece. In the local city make sure to eat at the local food trucks and via rhe street merchants. You can get a really good meal for less than $5 USD

    History
    Edit

    Paris was full of rich history. Must see's the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, and Palace of Versailles. Tip: Get to the Louvre an hour or so before opening time. I was the 3rd person in line and was able to get a front row view of the Mona Lisa. The Louvre typically opens at 9am. We arrived between 745-8am. You can pass the time by getting great pictures. Everyone heads directly to the Mona Lisa, so if you can look for those signs immediately, or ask one of the security guards outside. We also did a dinner boat cruise. The scenery was amazing. you can expect some pretty good food (the best food i had on the trip), and a full bar. Cost was around $77 USD/person. https://www.viator.com/tours/Paris/Seine-River-Cruise-Bateaux-Parisiens-Sightseeing-Cruise-with-Dinner-and-Live-Music/d479-5836DINNERCRUISE
