The Mighty 5: Utah’s Spectacular National Parks

The five National Parks are: Zion, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Canyonlands and Arches. I was very lucky to be able to visit all five this past summer. My visit was during July (2018) and after spending a year living in Orlando, I thought I’d adjusted quite well to the heat. I was wrong. During my time in Utah temperatures were around 35-40 degrees (celsius) and visiting these National Parks in the heat is something you need to be prepared for, whether…

5 Reasons Why Philadelphia Is My Favourite City In The U.S.
When I first added Philadelphia to my East Coast itinerary I initially only did so because I really wanted to see Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. I hadn’t researched the city at all; I made the huge assumption that Philadelphia was just full of crime and honestly thought there was nothing here. Well I was wrong on so many levels, a quick search of Trip Advisor and I found tons! In less than 48 hours the city had me falling in love with it. A Rocky Start It all started with a more than memorable greyhound bus journey… I booked our greyhound from D.C. for 10:30am. It’s about 3-4…

Camping Overnight Inside Monument Valley
Day 5 of my G Adventures tour saw us saying goodbye to Moab and hello to a 3-hour bus ride. We started our day with a visit to Arches National Park and after a sweltering hot morning we started our journey to Monument Valley. This would be our last full day in Utah. It had been amazing Utah is absolutely stunning. Halfway through our journey we stopped at a small town called Bluff. Here we had soft serve ice cream from the Bluff Historic Fort. I had to eat it so quick because it was around 45 degrees today. “I’m tired, I think I’ll go home now” Driving along the…

A City Girl Hikes: The Grand Canyon’s Rim Trail
A City Girl Hikes: The Grand Canyon’s Rim Trail In July this year I returned to the Grand Canyon for a second time. This time I was spending two nights here camping with my G adventures group. On my previous visit back in April, we were on a day tour from Las Vegas. So had minimal time here, considering the 3-4 hour drive either way. So this time around I got to experience far more. Upon arriving to the Grand Canyon, Lindsey our tour guide insisted we put paper bags over our heads. I started to wonder if it was because I was makeup-free today, but no, it was for…
