Traveling Alone
I believe that everyone should go traveling alone at one point in their lives because it really is a different experience to traveling with your family, friends, for work, or with school. For some people, traveling alone can be a daunting idea because they might feel that it is unsafe, or they may not be comfortable being alone, especially in a different country. For anyone traveling even with a group there are precautions that should be taken but I never once, as a solo female traveler, felt unsafe in my travels. For those who may feel uncomfortable being alone I think it is important to push ourselves outside of our comfort zone and experience something that is completely our own. This summer I traveled to a little island off the coast of Spain called Menorca as part of a five week European adventure. Each part of my trip was amazing in its own way, but Menorca was the only place I traveled to by myself.

Temple Hopping in Thailand: Must Do's!
Wat: a term given to Buddhist or Hindu temples in Thailand, and other parts of Southeast Asia. Thailand has an abundance of wats (with all respect and for scaling purposes only, one may refer to them as the Starbucks of Thailand). Many of them are "must-sees" for their ornate architecture and more so, for their highly coveted sightings of monks in orange robes. But it can be tricky to pick and choose which of the many wats are worth visiting, especially if you're a backpacker on a tight schedule.

Worst Exotic Car Crashes in History
We all know how beautiful foreign and exotic cars are, but the prices are what really frightens us. As much as we adore these cars through the internet and dream of getting our hands on one... we'd have to sell a organ for one. And if we happen to buy an exotic car, we basically give it more love and treat it better than a child. There are people out there who do own our dream car and do treat it as how we personally would. But then there are exotic car owners who somehow get into accidents.

10 Reasons I Love Target!. Top Story - January 2018.
I'm obsessed with Target. No, seriously, Target is my answer to all things in life. Need a shirt? Go to Target. Need bread? Go to Target. Need meds? Go to Target. Fake eyelashes? Shampoo? New pans? Pillows? Rug? Toys? TV? Bras? Diapers? Kids clothes? Xbox? GO TO TARGET! I love Target so much that I would consider getting that damn Target dog or giant red entry ball tattooed on my body if it meant I could spend more time at Target.

Do You Hike?
Do you love to hike? Do you hike alone? With friends? Or with family? Hiking is like a exercise. Some don't think so. If you really think about it, you're climbing over fallen trees, climbing moderate mountains, walking down trails and all such of stuff. To some, like serial killers, it's a place to murder or bury a body. Me? It's a nature palace where I can smoke ganja and not get judgement from animals and spirits that roam there. I also, before I became a mother, used to swim in the river, nude, in an isolated area. Nature is a very kind place.
