I’ve been wanting to write this post for awhile now, especially considering how much fun I had writing Love and Travel Intertwined nearly two years ago. Music has always been a huge part of my life, as I’m sure it is in your own life as well. It’s been a constant part of my journey, whether it was playing the flute [...]
Reflections
Bohemian Changes and Stages
As Bohemian Trails quickly nears its two year blog-versary, I couldn’t be more proud of what it’s become. Blogging began as an outlet for me and soon turned into a real career. The last year alone took me to Europe on three separate occasions, South America, the Middle East and the Caribbean. I needed this time to explore who I [...]
I am an AFAR Ambassador
AFAR has been one of my favorite magazines, if not my favorite, since its launch in 2009. While compared to other travel magazines that have been around much longer, I found AFAR at the perfect moment in my life. The first time I ever traveled abroad was in Spring of 2008 during my semester studying and working in London. Up [...]
Religious Reflections
I’ve probably never written about religion on Bohemian Trails before but in the spirit of Easter, here goes. While I consider myself more of a spiritual person than a religious one, religion has always been a part of my life. Up until college I attended Catholic school and therefore studied the Bible on a daily basis. Yet, it wasn’t until [...]
Bohemian Trails Gets Hitched
I’m not sure how or why it happened but somewhere along the line I got everything I ever wanted and so much more. In all honesty, I’ve been mulling over whether or not to make this announcement at all. I know other writers who quickly shared their happy news with their readers, and while I admire their boldness for doing [...]
Finding My Trail of Personal Inspiration
You might have noticed that I’ve been posting less frequently than usual – and that’s true but for good reason. For one thing, I haven’t traveled anywhere in the last two months so I don’t have my normal stream of content flowing. Secondly, I just got married! (more on that in a later post). Anyway, while I’ve been taking things [...]
5 Boho Cities I Did Not to Connect With
As much as I love being an avant-garde traveler, there are certain cities that I just don’t seem to connect with no matter how hard I try – and they are truly fantastic cities. I’m willing to give these places another shot in the future but as of now, here are 5 cities where I’ve been hit with a case [...]
My 2013 New Year Resolutions
It’s hard to believe that it’s already 2013 but I’m hoping it will be as great or even better than 2012. This past year was one for the records – I traveled to three continents, went out of my comfort zone and met people from around the world who in some way or another, have taught me a life lesson. [...]
My Five Favorite Travel Memories from 2012
2012 was a year full of wonderful changes and unexpected surprises. Travel-wise, I started the year off with a trip to Miami which was quickly followed by Norway, Texas, Colombia, Israel, Palestine, Finland, Germany, UK, France, California, Norway again, Austria, Dominican Republic and last but certainly not least, Ireland. Whew! I’m officially exhausted. A mix between press trips and personal [...]
Falling Under Girona’s Spell
Over the past few years, I’ve had two failed attempts to visit Barcelona. Both times life got in the way my plans changed. While I knew that Barcelona was not in the cards for me, I didn’t want to leave Europe without at least seeing Spain. Before heading back to the states I decided to visit a friend from high [...]
My Tropical Travel Bucket List
With winter about to rear it’s ugly head, my mind has been on much warmer destinations. Don’t get me wrong; I love watching snow fall from the comfort of my humble East Village apartment but once the romantic snow melts, I’m not such a huge fan of wet streets and cold wind whipping past my face. That being said, here [...]
My Trail Toward Travel Writing
People often ask me how old I am and it’s not because I do or don’t look a certain age but because my career has streamlined into a variety of industries within a short time span. It’s always funny to see a person’s confused face after hearing that I double majored in Psychology and English/Communications and now I travel around [...]
