10 Reasons to Spend a Weekend in Philadelphia

December 8, 2016August 22, 2020 / Yale Wanders / Leave a comment

Growing up outside of Pittsburgh, I knew Philadelphia as a city rich with American history and home to rival sports teams (#GoSteelers!). It wasn't until I moved to New York that I started spending weekends in Philadelphia, first for races and then because I enjoyed the city so much I wanted to explore more of it. … Continue reading 10 Reasons to Spend a Weekend in Philadelphia

#Take12Trips: November

November 30, 2016December 23, 2016 / Yale Wanders / Leave a comment

Paraphrasing one of my favorite quotes- the bad news is time flies, but the good news is you're in charge. I feel like yesterday was just October 31, I can't believe it's already the last day of November! Before I talk about this month's travel, I do want to acknowledge this was a tough month for … Continue reading #Take12Trips: November

Weekend Getaway: Pittsburgh

September 22, 2016August 22, 2020 / Yale Wanders / Leave a comment

“Pittsburgh. One of the most underrated cities in North America. People who’d never been there thought of it as a graveyard of abandoned steel mills, but it’s a beautiful city.” -Steven Burst I’m never surprised when Pittsburgh makes headlines for being a great place to live or visit. But, I do feel a surge of … Continue reading Weekend Getaway: Pittsburgh

#Take12Trips: August

August 27, 2016November 29, 2016 / Yale Wanders / Leave a comment

Much like June and July (sensing a trend, yet?), I stayed local. The truth is I don't like traveling in the summer. It's when cost to travel to most destinations is highest, in part because everyone travels at this time of the year. Even though I stayed local this month, I had every intention of checking … Continue reading #Take12Trips: August

#Take12Trips: July

August 2, 2016November 29, 2016 / Yale Wanders / Leave a comment

Can't believe it's already August! Even though I'm over the hot, humid, sticky weather, and excited for a fall filled with travel, I can't believe how fast summer is flying by. Like June, I stayed local for most of the month. Instead of leaving the city for the long holiday weekend in the beginning of July, I opted … Continue reading #Take12Trips: July

One day in Milos, went for a sailing adventure ⛵️
Mandrakia Point was my favourite colourful fishing village on Milos 🌈🌊
Whether you stay in Plaka or elsewhere on the island, the beautiful capital of Milos on top of a rock formation overlooking the sea is worth exploring.
My favourite beach in Milos was Firapotamos, a beautiful sandy cove with old boat houses that line the shore.
If the name Milos sounds familiar, it may be because this is the island where the Venus de Milo was found. Today, there’s a replica near where it’s believed to have stood.
Fyriplaka Beach was one of my fav swim spots in Milos.
