2017. It is beginning of a new
yea,r so I thought we would do a
wonderful collaboration of ideas and
inspirations of destinations that you
should go visit, because I have two
amazing other female travellers Raya
from Rayawashere and Kristin Sarah from
Hopscotchtheglobe. So between the three
of us I think we've been to some pretty
wicked places. So we are going to talk about that
hopefully inspire you with your future
plans. At the end of 2016 I went to Greenland and
it absolutely blew my mind I had no
expectation that it really know much
about the country and went there and I
was just so blown away by the beauty. I felt so
cleaner. It cleansed my body
with the freshest air and the most
delicious fresh water really clean food
and also I felt like it cleanse my soul.
Might sound a little cheesy but I did I
felt like a new person when I got back
I loved nature, I loved being outside
you have to go to Greenland. Patagonia, I love
Patagonia, yes, so I went there this time
last year and was one of the most incredible
experience I've ever been to. It was actually far less
difficult than you think to get down
there. It's the bottom of Argentina
and Chile and local do it all the
time. Biggest tip though is to
with bring warm clothes because even
though you're traveling in
January-February and its their summertime
it's still cold and you're still wearing
like toques and gloves and hats but the
mountain views are absolutely spectacular
I so highly recommended. All of like
South America is kind of like really
cool. But Patagonia....
My first place is Morocco where I went
think over a year ago, but that was
the first time I went that was like a big
culture shock for me because it was so
Before then I've done Europe and all American stuff
but Morocco... as soon as you literally
drive from the airport, I was like wow this
looks like a different world and it was so
beautiful and also everywhere you look
it's picturesque beautiful you can take
photos everywhere
the food is good. There are tiles
everywhere. You're just gonna get like 500
instagrams
specifically if you are here in Europe
is so easy to fly there and cheap to get
to, so highly recommend Morocco. I am
going to recommend Belize. Belize I've
been to a couple of times it's one of
those destinations that i think is a
little underrated people go to Mexico
all the time but Belize is so close to
Mexico you can even combine the two
destinations the water is some of the
like most beautiful turquoise blue I've ever
seen
there's a lot of under underwater life
so if you love scuba diving or
snorkeling is great and just put
laid-back chill vibes if you want to
relax and chill, eat good food and go scuba
diving and just being in the water
Belize is the place to go. New Zealand. I always
recommend New Zealand, especially if you are
first-time traveler because it is so easy
to travel and so easy to get around
and there's the hop on hop off buses that
whole infrastructure, hostel chains
there's is buy and sell for travelers looking
to buy fans, and like buy cars for
like share road trips if you're going by
yourself you can easily just jump on
another vehicle. There is also like dozens and
dozens of tourist activities and
attractions, plus amazing nature. You can
get like all four seasons, so you can do like
volcanoes, you can do winters, you can do beaches
you can do everything in New Zealand. So it is a
good place to a road trip. Oh, yea. My second place
will be Bali where that was like so
high my list forever and I went once
last year and then I was like we have to
go against our back a few months later
and it's it's so beautiful the food is
out of this world like so many amazing
fresh vegan restaurants everywhere and
it's hot which I love. There is monkeys
everywhere
the culture is great but it's still like
not too big of a culture shock like
you feel comfortable and easy to get
around and there's lots of traveler so
lots of people to meet and it's a great
place. Its like a spiritual place and it's
surfing, just everything. Bali is so high I
think on everyone's list, like places to go
or places to go back to. I'm going to
throw this one out there. It's
little different and not many people I
know personally have gone. Paraguay was
one of m first trips, and if you are looking for a
cultural experience specifically in a
place where you can spend at least a few
weeks I would recommend Paraguay the
culture there is very different than any
other place in South America the people
are incredible
it's very much a country about people in
community so that is what you're looking
for
Paraguay is the perfect choice. Depends
on how you feel about it, but China. First time I went to
China was in 2010 and it was
like one of the most craziest experiences
I've ever personally done so different
than anything I've experienced. Then I
went back again a couple times, once in 2014
once in 2015. It has changed so much, become so
much easier for tourists to get around
to travel in and cheap. China in general
is really really opening up to
tourists and it's becoming a lot
more, like there is a lot more knowledge out
there, and English, English knowledge too,
to help you get around and it's just some
amazing incredible places and history
in general, there is so much to see
oh yeah, and just amazing buildings yeah
My third place I would say it's Cuba which
is harder I guess for different people to
get to it than others but that's all
changing right now but go as soon as
possible because it is kind of about to
change drastically but we went about a
year and a half ago and it's it's like
time travel. Going to Cuba was literally
traveling in time there's the cars and
no one really speaks English which I
love because it's actually like the
country just what it is. And then
your and after seeing it's not made for
you, like you know a lot of other tourist
destinations are. So it's just dance
salsa like all day, every day, the
music you right yeah on the streets, and
music like every restaurant has live
music, that's one of the best like
performances I've ever heard ever. It's just
yeah it's just Cuba. Go to Cuba. Have you guys been to Cuba?
I have, but I haven't been outside the resort and
I know
it's a totally different experience. So now because
we are travelers, where do we want to
go in 2017? Like a destination of
choice for 2017? I'm going to say
Ethiopia and this was just like kind of
recent realization someone
mentioned it and like, click,
I need to go there and I really want to
experience the tribes in Ethiopia, like
spend a minimum like one week just
living with them, seeing what their daily
lives are like. I think that would be
used a really cool experience.
Destination, oh, man, this one has been
on my list forever, maybe I'll so it this year but India
I want to go to India. Yes, girl, yes. I'm just
it's been my number one on my list for so
long and I just haven't gotten around to
it, maybe 2017 is the year that
is gonna happen but just the culture, I
love the food already, I love the culture, and I just
know there is so much to offer, for me
personally and as a traveler so like
that's very high top of my list.
Mine is kind of recent, but Madagascar.
I really want to go especially after
watching planet Earth, that is like what really
sparked it for me, but I guess knowing that
was it like, over ninety percent of the
plants and animals in Madagascar are only in
Madagascar. So its almost like its own
world, like its own little island full of
these like crazy beautiful amazing
creatures and yeah I think it just
sounds so different from anywhere else
I've ever been and I want to go experience like
the nature and the animals . I love animals.
So I want to go and see all the cute animals.
Galapagos is also kind of similar like a
different world and animal lovers
yeah. You would love the Galapagos.
My list is so long, guys, you can't keep telling me
these things do add to the list.
Great thing about travel is that
the adventures really never stop, there is
so many different places to see, things to do
Those are some amazing
recommendations for you, guys and gals

thinking of going travelling in 2017
