It was so nice to meet up with our Creative Photo Academy group in the Seoul airport for the flight to Hanoi. We got into Hanoi at night and went straight to our hotel. After some good sleep, it was time to explore! Our first day in Vietnam was a rainy one, but honestly, I […]
Read more "Vietnam Day One – Hanoi Walking Tour"My fever broke around lunchtime on our third day in Seoul, so that was a relief! We revisited our list of things we wanted to see in Seoul to see what was a must-see and what we weren’t super attached to. We ended up narrowing it down to the Namsangol Hanok Village and N Seoul […]
Read more "Seoul Day Three – A Village and A Tower"Our second day in Seoul was where things started coming off the rails a bit. Either due to dehydration, jet lag, or a combination of both, I woke up with a sore throat. Not great. This was also the day that we had the most planned after taking it a little easier on our first […]
Read more "Seoul Day Two – A Palace, A Typhoon, A War Memorial, and A Cold"Our first day in Seoul was Mike’s birthday! Mike got to pick what we did and he picked so many fun things! We started the day by walking down the Cheonggyecheon Stream which was right next to our hotel. It was so peaceful to walk down the banks of the stream. It was also kind […]
Read more "Seoul Day One – A Stream, A Cat Cafe, and Shopping"After Mike and I went to see the foxes, we decided to go check out the wildflower bloom in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. It definitely did not disappoint! We saw some beautiful flowers and some great scenes! My favorite part was the moonrise we saw over the mountains. We also learned about a new desert […]
Read more "Anza-Borrego Desert State Park"Our last day in Tanzania was bittersweet – Mike and I had been gone for almost two weeks and we were ready to go home. But the experiences we had were absolutely incredible, once-in-a-lifetime moments. We knew we would miss it. Luckily, we were able to go on one last game drive that morning. And […]
Read more "Tanzania – Our Last Day"Our last full day in Africa was incredibly eventful! We had a beautiful sunrise (our first of the trip!), and our first game drive started by watching a cheetah enjoy the catch of the day (a baby wildebeest). We ended our day watching honeymoon lions – more on that later. In between, we followed a […]
Read more "Tanzania – Day Four in Lake Ndutu"Our trip to Serengeti National Park was highly anticipated by our group for one reason – elephants. We saw a group of elephants in Ngorongoro Crater, but they were too far away to get good pictures of. Since then, we hadn’t seen any other elephants. Everyone was hoping that we’d see a huge herd of […]
Read more "Tanzania – Day Three in Lake Ndutu and Serengeti National Park"Our second day in Lake Ndutu brought less rain, which was great for us because that meant a lake crossing could take place! We started off the day with cheetahs and lions and ended the day watching one of the jeeps get pulled out of an aardvark hole. We also got to see two vultures […]
Read more "Tanzania – Day Two at Lake Ndutu"It’s hard to think that anything would top Ngorongoro Crater. However, we were going to spend the rest of our trip in Lake Ndutu. Aside from a day trip to Serengeti National Park, we were just going to be on game drives around Lake Ndutu. We were told that this was “cat heaven” and boy […]
