My first time in Chicago ✨️

I now understand the reference that people say all the time: "it's a cleaner New York City." I totally get it now. I love the skyscrapers and the overall architecture in this city. It is indeed surprisingly clean and not so busy to the point that there's no space on the sidewalks to walk.

People in this vibrant city adore sports, you can tell. Now, regarding food, what an incredible experience I've had so far.

Having breakfast at the was a good idea, and walking by the and around the area was lovely. The bars & restaurants overlooking the water are adorable. It reminds me of Europe.

Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

🌺 Exploring Barranco, Lima's Bohemian gem ✨ Dive into a day of vibrant culture and charming streets with these recommendations:

1️⃣ Start with a stroll along the Puente de los Suspiros ("Bridge of Sighs") where legend has it that if you hold your breath while crossing and make a wish, it just might come true. No, you won't magically feel the romance in the air but it's cute to see.
2️⃣ Indulge in local flavors at Barranco's food market – from ceviche to churros, taste the essence of Peru. Believe me, street food is amazing here.
3️⃣ Get artsy at the Jade Rivera gallery, where his vibrant works come to life. I found out about him while in Lima and wow, he has amazing pieces.
4️⃣ Lose yourself in the colorful streets, lined with graffiti art and hidden gems waiting to be discovered. So much of my camera roll were graffitis for quite a long time!
5️⃣ Wrap up your day with sunset views at the Barranco cliffs – a breathtaking end to an unforgettable day. I walked down to a mirador where you're able to see the beach and relax/have a conversation.
6️⃣ Don't forget to treat yourself to some locally-made ice cream with exotic fruit flavors like lucuma and maracuyá – a sweet ending to your Barranco adventure. 🍨🇵🇪

Barcelona equals art & beauty 🎨

It was a great surprise to see how artsy, full of life, and gorgeous is 🫶🏼

It has mountains, the beach, nightlife, amazing drinks and food, and an overall laid-back vibe. A second visit is definitely in the books for some time in the future 🤩

That time when I decided last minute I wanted to go to 😍

You don't need to depend on other people/tours to go where you want to visit. If you do your research and plan accordingly, you will be able to do things on your own 😉 I'm so glad I made the decision to go. I had an amazing day going to the top landmarks: Pena Palace, Castelo dos Mouros, Sintra National Palace and even had time to have a delicious lunch (obviously I had cod 😂) and tried their Ginja. It's a sweet liqueur made from Morello (sour) cherries soaked in a distilled spirit called aguardente.

Talk about adrenaline before starting a tour. That's what happened this time around 🫣 but that's a story for another time. This post is about my Valladolid-Cenote-Chichen Itzá adventure.

I learned a great deal about Mayan culture! It was a full 12hr day of learning, observing, and picture taking. 😍

Our stop in was short but so nice. Now part of the Pueblos Mágicos, this city is worth of a longer visit so I will definitely be back. We stopped at San Servacio church and walked around the Parque Francisco Canton. Then, stopped at a for some swimming, lunch, tequila tasting and tried a marquesita for the first time.

Towards the end of the day, we finally got to ✨️ Honestly, I must say I was waiting for something more special, some unique vibe. Even though I didn't find it, it was still a great time. Our guide was incredible, explaining everything to us. The details about the structure, the surroundings, and civilization.

Overall, this trip was one to remember!

📸 Pictures:
1. Discovering Chichen Itzá
2. Learning the local language
3. Sitting down at the double chair in Valladolid. According to the tradition, single girls would come here looking for conversation and hoping for a match.

We made sure that the drink package money was well spent ‼️🍷🍸 Turns out that having a #Bachelorette on a #cruise is not a bad idea at all! #bacheloretteweekend #MSC

🦝 That time in Costa Rica when a coati decided to crash our pit stop! We were changing clothes by the car, and this little guy (or girl?) came over, sniffing around like it owned the place. 😂 –Scroll down for Spanish– - The good: Coatis are super curious and adorable creatures. They’re common in Costa Rica and often fearless around humans. It’s a fun and unexpected wildlife encounter! 🐾🌿 - What to beware of: Don’t feed them! Coatis can get aggressive if they associate humans with food, and feeding them disrupts their natural diet. Also, keep your belongings zipped up—they’re sneaky and love snacks! 🚫🍎 We learned quickly when we realized he was after our fruits. We had no idea, no one warned us. 💬 Have you ever had a wildlife encounter like this? Share your stories in the comments—I’d love to hear them! —— 🦝 Esa vez en #CostaRica cuando un #coatí decidió interrumpir nuestra parada. ¡Estábamos cambiándonos al lado del carro y este amiguito (o amiguita?) apareció oliendo como si fuera su casa! 😂 - Lo bueno: Los coatíes son criaturas súper curiosas y adorables. Son comunes en Costa Rica y no tienen miedo de acercarse a los humanos. ¡Un encuentro salvaje inesperado y divertido! 🐾🌿 - Cuidado con esto: ¡No los alimentes! Los coatíes pueden ponerse agresivos si asocian a los humanos con comida, y darles de comer altera su dieta natural. Además, mantén tus cosas bien guardadas—¡son astutos y les encantan los snacks! 🚫🍎 Nosotros aprendimos rápidamente al darnos cuenta que estaba oliendo nuestras frutas. 💬 ¿Alguna vez has tenido un encuentro con la vida salvaje como este? ¡Comparte tus historias en los comentarios, me encantaría leerlas! —— Follow @CovaTravels for travel experiences, itineraries & tips.

I can't believe I hadn't been here! 🐶😺 -- Scroll down for Spanish-- This place is so cute. The Dogs and Cats Walkway is located right next to the Frost Museum in Downtown Miami, and it has dogs and cats sculptures by different artists. They're all unique and entertaining to see. Plus, if you scan the QR code, it takes you to the behind the scenes of creating the sculpture. Pretty cool! Check it out next time you're in the area 😉 --------------- Este lugar es muy lindo.

–Scroll down for Spanish– When in Costa Rica, make sure you try a #Caldosa 🤤 It's a very common Costa Rican snack, that consists of a bag of #Picaritas (barbecue-flavored corn chip) filled with scoops of ceviche, shaken a little. You eat it with a spoon. My review 👉🏼 To be honest, I had zero expectations, and wow it was delicious! Probably the favorite thing I tried while in #CostaRica 🇨🇷 📌 Mercado Central in #SanJosé, CR. —— Cuando estés en Costa Rica, no dejes de probar una #Caldosa 🤤 Es un bocadillo costarricense muy común, que consiste en una bolsa de Picaritas (chips de maíz con sabor a barbacoa) rellena con porciones de ceviche, agitadas un poco.

When stars align and you're in #Paris the day of la #FeteDeLaMusique 🎶 I've never lived something like this, I want to come again some other time to have this experience again! 🙌🏼 People of all ages are out and about, enjoying the #SummerSolstice in their own way. The younger crowds would be jumping around, while the more experienced people enjoy the live music while sipping wine and sitting down at a terrace. La #FêteDeLaMusique is for everyone! Would you join me next time? 🇫🇷 #MusicParty #LiveMusic #France #Travel #FemaleTraveler #SoloTravel

One thing I like to do when I land in a Latin American country is taste local fresh fruits. In this case, it was in the form of a juice 😋 📌 The Mercado de San Pedro in #Cusco is a covered market with stalls that sell everything from produce, meat, clothing, chocolates, local delicacies, and more. I rushed to get here because the market was about to close, and this was my one chance to visit. Luckily, the woman in the video still had her juice stall open, and she was kind to make me an original combination. 🥭🥕 Oh, and you see that part of her asking about a friend? Yes, in Latin America, it is still not so common to see a #Female #SoloTraveler around town 🤷🏻‍♀️ #Peru #LatinAmerica #FemaleTraveler

Ya quiero que llegue el próximo viaje para volver a sentir la misma curiosidad por lo desconocido, por los momentos que viviré, y que por siempre recordaré 🫶🏼✈️

The question I get asked all the time when I say I went to the #GreatWallOfChina 👇🏼 "Was it espectacular?", "Was it wow?" 😲 Depends on who you ask. Although it was so amazing to be there, it wasn't an out of this world experience. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Let's just say that I was impressed but didn't get goosebumps. #TravelWithMe #Asia #TravelStories #WorldCruise #China #GreatWall #MurallaChina
