This was one of the best trips I went on with family. We got to go into a cave and see the history behind it. It was a stay for about a week and we stayed in an airbnb . The food and people were amazing. This was such an amazing experience 10/10 I recommend

I visited this town during the rainy season in November. It's one of the most picturesque coastal towns I've been to and it looked even more beautiful in the rain. The beach is stunning and otherwordly. The food was great. I had pancakes and coffee. Locals were pleasant.

I think Idaho is pretty fun but at the same time it gets really boring after while especially in post falls where there really is not much at all I mean sure there's a few good food places but for activities there's not much to do.

Chicago, Solo travel
Chicago was an amazing city to visit! I loved walking around downtown and along the lakefront – the views are beautiful, especially near Millennium Park and the famous Bean. The architecture is incredible and there are so many great places to eat and explore. I also felt comfortable traveling around the main tourist areas, especially during the day. It’s a vibrant city with a lot of culture, food, and things to see. Definitely a place worth visiting!

When ICE isn't here I'd say it's decently safe during the day, be careful traveling here right now if you do not appear / are not white. During the later evenings, especially on weekends, things can get rowdy downtown, so be careful.

Davenport is quite safe. As a lone women I would definitely avoid the west side and downtown areas, especially at night. There are pockets of not great areas all over but they are still pretty safe. For the most part I would say to just mind your business and you'll have no worries at all! People are generally quite kind to outsiders as well. If you are not white, I would say to be aware that people may not be as friendly or welcoming, but as far as I am aware, you are still very safe. There...

There are so many tourists now that it makes it safe to walk. You won’t be walking alone. But this is also the reason it’s unsafe. Leave something out and it’ll be gone within 30 mins. Scams happening all the time around the stadiums and concert venues.

Houston is like any other large city as far as safety goes. Be smart about your surroundings and having valuables out. The city is not really walkable, so driving/Uber is a must. Most of the touristy areas will be fine.

About me
Hii! Im Elizabeth. I go by Elizabeth or lizard 🦎. Im 29 soon to be 30 and newly married to my hub, sean. Im from L.A county and moved because you cant save money in cali. I have adhd and I am very energetic and extroverted and im down for many things. I dont enjoy drinking though so if your personality is barhopping I fear youd go alone as those environments stress me out. But ill go dance! I love nature, boba, asain food, ice cream, book, walks, train rides, music, and more. Ive traveled a lot in the last 2 years. Travel has helped me heal so many internal scars and I think its so important for those who can, to do so. Theres so much to see and I live on only a sand grains portion of earth. Im down to thrift or stay home and bake cookies and Im a huge cat lady. I have 2 fur sons names lucky and yoda. I would love to exchange culture and travel stories, recipes, ect. Connections made while traveling is arguably the best part of the trip. I cant wait to meet you all :)
