Destinations

It’s right after the Passover weekend that I landed in Tel Aviv. A modern, vibrant, bustling city with impressive… traffic. ►►►

I spent a week in Alaska at the end of June / beginning of July. I set foot in the Land of the Midnight Sun on June 28, just a week after the summer solstice. ►►►

I recently treated myself to a 5-day stopover in San Francisco as I was traveling to Alaska for a wedding. As my plane touched the Californian ground, San Francisco was already in full-on celebration mode. ►►►

During my recent visit to San Francisco, I stayed at the Pacific Tradewinds Hostel. I spent 5 days – and as many nights – in this hostel, upon the owner’s invitation. ►►►

Before going any further: yes, free walking tours (sometimes named simply “free tours”) are REALLY free. For a backpacker, these free walking tours are numerous gifts wrapped in a single “package”… ►►►

In about 48 hours, I will touch ground in California. In San Francisco, to be exact. And in one week, I will be flying out from the Golden State to the Last Frontier, the Land of the Midnight Sun… Alaska. ►►►

Often considered a “second class” European destination, Poland has everything it takes for an authentic experience… that will spare your wallet! ►►►

Guatemala, “the land of trees” in the Mayan language, will satisfy everyone, from the adrenaline-crazed adventurers to the most relaxed, slow-paced tourists. ►►►
