Venice is more than gondolas navigating the channels! After spending the night in Milan, we headed to Venice in a luxurious high-speed train, Frecciarossa. We stayed in Mestre, which is a mile from Venice. It was not hard to get to Venice. The train and the bus stop just in front of the hotel. After dropping off our backpacks…

Egypt, an unforgettable trip: Hurghada
This is a remade. I erased by mistake. After a long drive from Luxor, we got to Hurghada, a resort town on Egypt’s Red Sea shore. The first impression of Hurghada is like a typical Caribbean resort town but in the middle of the desert. After checking in and getting our room at the hotel, Movenpick…
Duomo di Milano
Duomo di Milano. Milan is one of the fashion capitals of the world. Therefore, the city has plenty of designer stores. Besides the fashion stores, there is a spectacular cathedral, Duomo di Milano. Regardless of your religious practices or preferences, this a must-visit place in the city. The inside of the church amazing, like most Catholic cathedrals, but the roof-top…
Smithsonian National Air And Space Museum
While in Washington D.C, I went to visit the National Air and Space Museum, which is one biggest in the aviation world. If you are an aviation fan, you will feel like you are in heaven. If you are not an aviation fan, you will probably enjoy it as well. I’m not an aviation expert, but I was…
Washington D.C.
Last Labor Day Weekend, I headed to the Capital City of the United States, Washington D.C. Washington will be the perfect place if you want to see monuments and museums for free. This post will be more about the monuments. Our first stop was the White House. The house looked smaller than what I was…
Plotter Kill
I decided to drive for two and a half hours to see this beautiful waterfall that I had found on Google. The drive was not bad at all. It took a little more than two hours to get to the place. I decided to hike up the Red Trail from the Coplon Road entrance….
Buttermilk Falls
After hiking on the wrong trail for about an hour and a half, I found the treasure that I was looking for, the Buttermilk waterfall. One does not usually have to hike to see the falls. They are just steps from the road. If you wanted to go up, there are wooden stairs made by the government that…
Tillman Ravine Trail
Summer is too short to waste time! One of these weekends, I wanted to go hiking, but no one wanted to go. Thus, I decided to go by myself, and it was completely worth it. I had planned to go to Buttermilk Falls in Delaware Water Gap, but I stop in a trail like 2 miles…
George W Childs Park
On my last trip to the Poconos Mountains in Pennsylvania, I had the opportunity to visit two parks: Dingmans Falls at Dingmans Visitor Center and George W. Childs Park. George W. Childs Parks is a beautiful park with an easy trail to hike. The park also has a lot of picnic tables for people to use….
Dingmans Falls
I am continuing with my summer weekend adventure. This time, I head to Dingmans Falls, at Dingmans Visitors Center in Pennsylvania. It is always pleasant to drive to the Poconos Mountains along Highway 15 North. Unlike major freeways, Highway 15 North gives you the opportunity to go through little towns – small towns that you’d never image…
Memorial Day Tradition
For the last five five years, I have been going camping with my friends to Spruce Run Recreation Area. This year was special for a couple of reasons: we got a lake view camping lot for the first time, and the weather was perfect. The temperature was around 91 degrees Fahrenheit (about 33 degrees Celsius), unlike the…
Bushkill Falls!
Finals are finally over. The last two weeks of class were stressful. After the semester finished, I decided to take a relaxing day trip with some friends to the Poconos Mountains, just an hour and twenty minutes from my house. My destination was “The Niagara of Pennsylvania” – that is what it says on the promotional brochure. The…
