I live in Yogyakarta, and these are the 15 places I send every visiting friend to: the royal palace and old city first, then the great temples, beaches, caves, waterfalls and volcano just outside town. Each card says who it suits and one thing to know before you go. Planning a trip? Ask me anything in the comments. Temples are best early, before the heat. Bring cash for markets.

from someone who's done about 20+ long haul flights, these are the things that get me through

Looking for toddler friendly animal activities? Here are some reccomendations in the NJ/NY area!

I grew up living 5 minutes away from Jim Thorpe, and it is such a wonderful place. I have places listed here but there is SOOO much! So much that in all my years I haven't ventured into absolutely everything the town has to offer! Broadway street is the streets with all your shopping needs! Wine and Spirits, Handmade Crafts, Charm BAR, Witchy things, Harry Potter cafe :) Definitely check this place out and make sure to research, because events are happening all year round!

Spent two years wanting to travel alone but kept chickening out because every scenario in my head ended badly. Finally booked a solo trip to Portugal and obsessively researched what to bring — turns out the right gear makes you feel ten times braver. If you're a woman who keeps almost booking that solo trip, this is the stuff that got me out the door and made me wonder why I waited so long.

Tokyo is HUGE - there is so much to see so feel free to dig into all the favourite things and attractions I experienced, amazing food and a unique culture that encapsulates individuality where many people do things alone - something I was really fascinated by and quite frankly wish was more common back where I'm from! I've listed mainly the things I myself experienced and some things I wish I could have!

These are the small gadgets that save me hassle in airports and hotels, from trackers that find lost bags to chargers that replace a tangle of cables.

Columbia is South Carolina's capital and a big college town, so you get a fun mix of University of South Carolina fans and state government folks.

Here's where to eat, stay and explore.

We’ve been lucky to have traveled to Santorini and Mykonos, and while I thought they were awesome, it felt like they were swarming with Americans trying to get the perfect selfie and overpriced restaurants and hotels. We did a lot of research and decided to travel to Sifnos, and it did not disappoint – everything I hoped for in a Greek island. Incredible views, wonderful people, delicious restaurants, gorgeous beaches. It was a bit of a journey to get here (fly to Santorini and 2.5 hour ferry, or fly to Milos and 45 min ferry) but we definitely hope to be back! Here are some of our faves.
