Can we talk about the elephant in the room? You’re planning your Thailand vacation and getting stoked for beautiful beaches and cheap massages.

The best hummus in Tel Aviv: 9 hummusiyas you have to visit!
If you’ve had one hummus, you’ve had them all. At least that was my mentality before trying hummus in Israel.

Awesome outdoor activities in Gunma Prefecture
I’ve been eating my way through Japan. I made cute bento boxes and ate all the kawaii and Instagrammable foods in Tokyo – especially dessert. Then, I ate wasabi ice cream in Shizuoka, soy sauce ice cream in Ibaraki and tried (and didn’t hate) octopus with a quail egg stuffed in its head in Kyoto. […]

When I planned my trip to Japan, I hoped to see and do as much as possible. I filled my schedule with food and activities and foodie activities. But a girl’s gotta sleep sometime! And sleep I did. I stayed in fancy hotels (ooh la la!), pod hostels (bare bones, but nice), and a businessman’s […]
