7 Things You Can’t Miss in Vienna
I have now visited Vienna three times – what a lucky duck. The city is filled with historic buildings, creme-filled pastries, and a certain magic that is hard to describe. Vienna is a great weekend trip from Prague. I specifically returned multiple times to sort out my Czech visa this year, but more on that at a later time.

Recollections en Route: I Moved to Prague!
…well almost.
Personally, my life was “inconvenient” at its worst during 2020 and 2021, which sadly not all can say. I contracted COVID-19 twice. Once in July 2020 (when it was linked to shame and disregard for the public), and once in May 2022 (when we collectively as a globe decided we were all just kind of over it).

Recollections En Route: Updates + I’m Back!
This is the longest I’ve gone without posting on the blog… EVER… and I have mixed feelings about it. On one hand it felt like I needed to take a break. Constantly worrying about creating content and keeping up with the {travel} Joneses took its toll on me. Social media ran my life and I started losing focus on the entire reason I started blogging in the first place. On the other hand, writing and creating on this space has always been an outlet for me.
