Ali Real Travel Budgets Slovakia 2

When our friends Gillian and Jason confirmed that they would spend a couple of nights in Bratislava, Slovakia as a break in the middle of their cycling journey from Prague to Budapest, I quickly made plans for me and Andy to meet up with them. Not only was it a chance to see our friends, […]

Uganda Safari: Lake Mburo National Park

Ali Travel Tips & Stories Uganda 0

The last park on our Uganda safari was Lake Mburo National Park. We drove into it in the afternoon a bumpy ride out of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, and Peter took us on a game drive right away. He told us there was only one lion in the park, so chances were not high for seeing […]

Uganda Safari: Bwindi Impenetrable Forest

Ali Travel Tips & Stories Uganda 0

That name alone sounds imposing, doesn’t it? Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is in the southwestern Uganda, and it was definitely tough to get to. This area is known for gorilla trekking, and since it’s a much cheaper option than neighboring Rwanda, it’s becoming a more popular choice for travelers interested in seeing gorillas up close. It […]

Best Christmas Markets in Germany…and Beyond

Ali Life in Germany, Travel Tips & Stories Austria, Germany, Poland 2

I really hate cold weather. But despite this, I love Christmas markets. I’m not even much of a holiday person, but the Christmas markets in Germany are so much fun! I’ve made it a point to get to a bunch of them over the years, and while there are still a few gaping holes in […]

Uganda Safari: Queen Elizabeth Park (south)

Ali Travel Tips & Stories Uganda 0

After spending two days in the northern part of Queen Elizabeth National Park, we were ready to head south to continue our safari. I didn’t really know what to expect, besides that our itinerary said we’d be searching for tree climbing lions. It turns out even getting from point A to point B can turn […]

Uganda Safari: Queen Elizabeth Park (north)

Ali Travel Tips & Stories Uganda 4

When my friend Katie messaged me to ask if I was interested in joining her in Uganda less than three months before the trip, my knee-jerk reaction was to think, no, there’s no way I can go to Uganda right now. But why not? After I took a moment to think it through, I realized […]

How Much We Spent in Alicante, Spain for One Week

Ali Real Travel Budgets Spain 0

Alicante was the last stop on our trip to southern Spain. It’s another coastal town popular with beach goers and has an active nightlife. I didn’t know much about the city before we started planning this trip, and I was pleasantly surprised at how lively it felt. It still wasn’t one of our favorites for […]

How Much We Spent in Cartagena, Spain for One Week

Ali Real Travel Budgets Spain 0

Working our way along the southern coast of Spain, our next stop was Cartagena, Spain. I had wanted to visit for awhile because it looked pretty, and to be honest, I wanted to visit the Licor 43 factory. Andy and I found an apartment and spent one week in Cartagena getting to know the city […]

Ali Real Travel Budgets Spain 0

While planning our month in Spain, Andy and I reached out to some friends we’ve only known online who live in southern Spain. We wanted to finally meet them in person, and this seemed like the perfect opportunity. Based on where I thought they lived, I suggested we meet up in Almeria. It turns out […]

How Much We Spent in Granada, Spain for 2 Days

Ali Real Travel Budgets Spain 2

Andy and I weren’t really planning on going back to Granada on this trip. We visited a few years ago when we were staying in Sevilla for a month, so we didn’t feel like we needed to return. But we wanted to meet up with friends of ours who live in a village nearby, and […]
