Top 10 destinations visited in the past year
The past year was an enormous game-changer in my life. By mid last year, I was only a wannabe traveller, and had not travelled anywhere in over three years – firstly due to lockdowns, and then due to a serious Achilles’ tendon injury. How fun! But, yours truly Courageous Wanderer was persistent in making his…

Never solo, but always on the go
“I never travel alone with my kid, so relying on my husband is a big part of our travel adventures. I do at least one “workation” per year. Typically, my kid spends most of the day with his dad and I split work in a way that lets me spend time with the two of…

How much courage does a solo trip cost?
The time has come! The first reader that approached me with their story of a solo trip! This is a close friend of mine, who shared she was inspired by my story of doing things alone. Just to remind you, alone is not a synonym for lonely – these are two words with completely different…

1001 Nights in Jordan

The Magic of Jordan
One morning, my phone rang. It’s a call from a really close friend. I pick up. The voice on the other end of the line asks me if I want to go to Jordan… Yes! Now, I’ve noticed lately that Jordan has become one of the most popular off-the-beaten-path destinations. In all honesty, I went…

Where I am from
Report this, report that, report everything. Visit a new city, a new country, a new place. Feel the spirit of every part of Earth you find along the way. Tell everybody about the food you tried. Meet the locals – everywhere. Feel all the local customs and traditions. Experience a different life here and there.…

Hidden gem of Europe
The name of this post was intended to be “And I though Europe had nothing left to offer!” – but I changed it at the last moment. The long intro is there to show that in the past year (mostly) I’ve been around quite a number of European countries, and that that part requires change.…
