Inspiring others to see the world
So you’re finally crossing Iceland off your bucket list. Congratulations! Now what? Luckily, Iceland has prepared for tourists that aren’t sure what to do, where to go, or what they want. After some research and a few trips to the magical land myself, I’ve compiled a list of the best apps for Iceland travel.
There is an age-old question of all travelers going anywhere: to rent a car, or not to rent a car? If you’re planning a trip to Iceland, you probably already have a loose itinerary in mind and are now just looking at logistics to carry out all your adventurous plans. If you need to decide whether to rent a car or take a tour bus in Iceland, you’re going to need all the facts.
There are two well-known mountain-dwelling trolls in Iceland named Gryla and Leppalúði. The 13 sons of these two trolls are the sons of Christmas, so Christmas in Iceland has 13 “Santa Clauses”. But these sons of Yule lads are not like the jolly old St. Nick that Americans know and love; they are mean and mischievous Yule lads.
November 1 is All Saints Day in Spain. Each year, people gather together to remember their loved ones who are no longer with us. Cemeteries are filled with people celebrating, not mourning, deceased relatives. People cover gravestones in elaborate floral displays, candles, and gifts as they celebrate their memories. It’s a beautiful holiday!
Epcot breaks stereotypes when it comes to traditional foods of countries around the world. In addition to all the permanent and temporary countries in Epcot during the International Food and Wine Festival, there are celebrity chefs, television show tapings, demonstrations, seminars, and tastings. It can be overwhelming if you walk into it without knowing what to expect!
I’ve noticed that when people tell me they’re traveling to Spain, it usually includes only a Madrid or Barcelona trip. While big cities are great, they don’t capture the essence of Spain. I’m here to entice you to either skip or add on to a trip to the big cities and discover the white villages of Andalusia.
Wouldn’t it be great if everyone could be a travel expert? Do all the right things all the time? No one wants to intentionally be disrespectful, rude, or offensive, but sometimes we make mistakes. I’ve compiled a list of travel faux pas during my travels to share with you so you can go into your next trip prepared!
Everyone who travels inevitably makes mistakes. Most of the time, we spend our time trying to avoid disastrous travel mistakes. Sometimes, the best memories come out of wrong turns and mishaps. If everything always went perfectly, it would be much more boring. Throughout my travels, I’ve learned that some mistakes are good to make.
Have you ever wondered how people who travel often tend to fly first class or stay in five-star hotels? With all that traveling, how do they find the extra money to vacation luxuriously? If you know what to look for, like earning miles and points for every day activities, you can travel luxuriously on a budget too.
During my travels, I’ve come across a lot of travel apps and websites that have made my travels much easier, and I want to share my secrets to help YOU travel more and more easily too! If you have a trip scheduled, whether it’s somewhere you’ve been 15 times before or it’s your first time, check out some of these travel apps to see how you can make your experience better.
