Morocco Adventure
In 2019 my Mom got the amazing opportunity to visit Morocco. Here’s the story. Mindvalley University, one of my favorite annual events was doing a new thing call Adventure. A group of people would sign up for a week long trip in exotic places. The food, transportation and experiences are all planned and included in the ticket. One of those exotic places was Morocco. Now, my family and I are nomadic travelers but… we hadn’t been to Africa yet. So, few weeks after hearing the news she set off to Morocco. While I was in Edinburgh working on my novel for Nanowrimo, my Mom was riding a camel in the…

Young Achiever Group 3
For the past 8 weeks, I’ve searched for Young Achievers and their incredible stories. I want to share with the world what I’ve discovered and break the mindset that we have to be a certain age to live our dreams. During the process of writing these posts, I was amazed at how many Young Achievers are out there. At a young age, I never knew any of this was possible. I not only learned that it is, but that it’s possible for anyone, even you. Ed Sheeran If you haven’t heard of him, you’ve heard his work. Edward Christopher Sheeran is a world renowned English singer and song writer recognized…

Denmark Travel Diary
Out of all the places I’ve been, Denmark is definitely one of my favorite countries in Europe. The country of Denmark, consisting of 443 different islands creating an archipeligo, is a jolly wonder. It’s one of the happiest countries in the world, ranking just above Norway. My family and I visited Copenhagen, the capitol of Denmark. It is a city which attracts millions of visitors each year and used to be an old sea town named Havn (Harbor). But being small the town experienced numerous pirate raids. So Bishop Absalon, an advisor to the king, built fortifications to protect the city. As the years passed, more and more merchants came…

Joke Time! 🧊 🚲
It’s Joke Time! Are you groaning? How can you groan when my own, DIY homemade jokes are so good? Here’s my latest joke. What does a Yeti ride to get around the Himalayan mountains? An Ice-cycle! Wasn’t that such a good joke? Thank you, it’s one of my best. Now, here’s a bit backstory about the Yeti. The creature is said to live in the Himalayan mountains near Mount Everest. I recently saw the movie Abominable and although this joke didn’t originate from it, I really enjoyed the movie. Stay tuned to see my post about the Abominable movie and more jokes.

Into the Unknown
For the past 3 years my family and I have been nomadic travelers visiting 20 countries including Greece, Switzerland, Norway and way more. Today our journey starts once again. Where will we go? What will happen? I don’t know. But if I stay open to the possibilities, I’m sure magic will unfold. Trust in the path before you. So let’s see how this plays out… Like the award winning song Into the Unknown from Frozen 2, there’s a voice calling us. You just have to listen and go with the flow.

BrickCon 2018
BrickCon, the renowned LEGO exhibition in Seattle Washington is where hundreds of thousands of LEGO fans of all ages come together in community, celebrating the LEGO brick. LEGO masters from all over the world come to show off their epic master pieces that can just make your jaw drop. It’s amazing. I remember the first time I went to BrickCon in 2016 at 11 years old. I love LEGO’s and while at BrickCon, I felt like I was in LEGO heaven. All around me there were big and small creations. Cities, castles, movie scenes, statues, space ships, battles… (gotta catch my breath) the whole experience was incredible. So in 2018…

Norway Travel Diary
Norway, such a magical land with stunning views, landscape and nordic history. Norway is such an incredible country. Part of my heritage is actually Norwegian so that could be one of the reasons I like it so much. Who wouldn’t? With a long history of vikings, kings and fairy tales, it’s a true wonder. Fun facts: Norway came first place in the World Happiness Report in 2017! It has the lowest crime rates in the world and super clean bathrooms! One of the many famous sites in Norway is Pulpit Rock. It was the ending scene for the epic helicopter chase in the movie Mission: Impossible Fallout. This precarious cliff…

Young Achiever George Matus
George Matus, inspired by his love of flying has created a revolutionary drone company called Teal, raising over 2 million dollars catching the eyes of drone flyers everywhere. On top of that, he’s only 22! I recently stumbled upon this young entrepreneur in my search for Young Achievers. Let’s dive into his story. “I was worried, initially, that age would be a factor, age did not turn out to be a factor and actually, it can be a benefit in some ways.” George Matus Born in 1997 in Salt Lake City, George Matus fell in love with flight after flying a radio-controlled plane at age 10. Since then, he flew…

Prague Travel Diary
With its impressive gothic architecture, incredible landmarks and a history stretching to 1306 BC, the city of Prague has been widely known as the Golden City, The Heart of Europe and The City of 100 Towers. Let’s go see what this is all about… Prague is the capitol of the Czech Republic, it’s the 13th largest city in the European union, home to over 1.3 million people and the largest castle in the world. That’s quite a mouth full for just a city. Prague’s first settlers were Celtic and named the area Bohemia after the Boii people. After the fall of the Roman empire the Slavik tribes moved in. The…
