Oaxaca – The Hip Neighborhoods
Today was another day of exploring the city of Oaxaca and its’ neighborhoods. After yesterday’s long tour, we just wanted to take it easy and walk around the other attractions we wanted to see. Walking past vendors of crickets is not unusual, as these are eaten as a snack by vendors. They have different flavors,…

Iceland Origins – Reykyavik
We spent around 1 week road-tripping around Iceland in 2018 with Sarah’s family, and I finally have the time to work on the Iceland trip blog!! I will be dividing the blog post per day, so they will be a little long and will primarily include photos as I don’t want to bore you all…
Montreal – The City
We started our day with a fruit fest breakfast at the Airbnb as we realized the excessive amount of fruit we bought the previous day. We took the metro straight to Downtown for our first stop: The Barbie Expo. Ariela was very excited about the “underground train” which she first rode in Toronto. This expo…
Montreal – Jour 1
We started the day with a 2.5 hour drive to Montreal. The drive is easy and beautiful, passing many nice green lush areas. We were warned many times about drivers in this side of Canada, but holy moly, they drive bad over here. Aggressive, without patience, some super slow, and others thinking they are on a F1…
Toronto to Ottawa
After spending a couple of nice family days in Toronto for Sarah’s family event, Simon’s Bar Mitzvah, we went on a nice road trip to Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec. The following post will just be about the road trip section of our vacation. Ariela loves to fly! So the whole airport experience is probably always…
A Stop in Charlotte

Bogota
Many people warned us that we should not visit Bogota, but we still wanted to give it a chance and see for ourselves. We arrived at night and went straight to the famous restaurant Andres Carne De Res, this craziness of restaurant inspired by Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy, where each floor is uniquely decored from…
Salento And The Coffee Farms
And here we go to the next Colombian stop. The town in Salento, located at the famous coffee region of Colombia. Unfortunately, there was a storm happening and the plane deviated 20 minutes before landing. We ended landing in Bogota!!! but after a couple hours waiting at the terminal, we were in the air again…
San Cristobal De Las Casas: Part 2
We continue our Chiapas adventure with the second part of San Cristobal De Las Casas Sightseeing. We had a delicious breakfast at the hotel before embarking on our last day at this beautiful town. We walked to the main church in the town. The Guadalupe Church was built on top of the hill in 1834….

Oslo
We continued our day in Oslo with a visit to the very under-the-radar National Museum. But this museum houses no less than the second most famous painting after the Mona Lisa. You know which one it is?? The Scream!! by Edvard Munch is here. The painting had a couple people looking at it, which was…
Happy Constitution Day, Bergen!!!
Our flight to Bergen arrived really late, but we were still able to see the mighty Norwegian Fjords from the air. We were so lucky to choose the hostel right above the loudest hostel in the city so since we couldn’t sleep we walked around to see the excitement but didn’t last long because we…
Where The Lights Go To Die
We started our morning with healthy fried chicken for breakfast in one of the restaurants in our hotel. It was delicious! We purchased tickets in advance for the Neon Museum,.Founded in 1996, the Neon Museum is a non-profit organization dedicated to collecting, preserving, studying and exhibiting iconic Las Vegas signs for educational, historic, arts and…
Lisbon: The City Of Fado
After a short flight from Casablanca, Morocco to Lisbon, Portugal where Sarah got lucky enough to get all the rows for herself, we finally arrived back in the old continent. After renting a car which took around 3 hours ( for some reason everyone was renting a car!), we headed to our beautiful hotel in the…
African Hollywood
Back on the road again, with Sarah and Eitan providing scintillating company. We made a stop at the particularly photogenic Kasbah Taourirt. The el Glaoui clan controlled one of the major southern caravan routes to West Africa and were given extensive power by the French during colonial rule in exchange for keeping the southern tribes subdued….
FEZtival of Colors
Fez’s medina is an overwhelming assault on the senses. Around every corner, there is something new to intrigue the visitor … except that the “something new” is usually something very old, in that it’s being done as it’s been done for centuries. So, join us for a pictorial reenactment of our Fez exploration. This guy…
Postcard Sunset
The first day we visited the more authentic, less touristy part of Santorini. Today we are heading north to Thira (or Fira) and Ia, the second largest city. We began our day stopping at a Greek bakery to buy a diabetic-preferred breakfast. Some Loukoumades and a Kataifi, basically sugar on top of more sugar soaked with sugary syrup. Delicious…
