I averaged about 20k steps a day in Kyoto and this I averaged about 20k steps a day in Kyoto and this day wasn’t any different 😅 When I planned to explore Arashiyama, I didn’t realize just how much walking was involved, and trust me, this is not the trip for dainty sandals or pretty-but-painful flats 👀

Thankfully, I packed smart. I wore my @allbirdscanada sneakers on all the busy days and it was easily a 10/10 decision. Lightweight, breathable, and shockingly comfy even after hours of walking — sore feet where?? 

Arashiyama is a full-day experience, so be sure to come prepared! A few must-do’s:

🎋 Stroll through the iconic bamboo forest
👟 Explore the town and don’t skip the street food!
🐒 Hike up to the monkey park
🛶 Go down the river on a boat ride
🍵 Join a traditional tea ceremony

This was one of my favorite days in Kyoto, made even better by the fact that my feet weren’t crying by the end of it. @allbirdscanada, you understood the assignment 👏🏾

A 14hr travel day isn’t too bad when it’s a di A 14hr travel day isn’t too bad when it’s a direct flight and everything just goes right🌟

Let’s talk about what I loved the most about this trip:

1. Did I mention it was a direct flight? Before booking my flight, I actually didn’t know this would be an option when travelling to a place that’s 15hrs ahead, so this was a pleasant surprise! 10 hours, no flight delays, no luggage concerns. Loved it!

2. The food was actually good? One thing about me is that I absolutely cannot stand airplane food. I’ve done 10 hour flights where I only ate pretzels and nuts because the food simply made me want to vomit 😭 So when westjet brought out a meal that looked and tasted decent, I said oh? And then the second meal was pretty good as well — so thank you to whoever created the meal plan for this flight!

3. Ok I know I’m not the one who gets a lil itch when you get on a crusty looking plane 😅 It immediately ruins my mood for the rest of the flight. So it was a relief to get on this plane and see that was incredibly clean and looked veryy brand new👏🏾

Now I’m not going to lie, Ive had one bad experience travelling with them, but this trip felt different and hopefully future trips match this energy!

I guess making these look nothing like your averag I guess making these look nothing like your average healthy drink is definitely one way to lure us in and it worked cause I’ll be going back! 🥤

They’ve opened up several new locations in calgary over the past few months and a few more in canada!

This gelato experience was a great start because if you know anything about @righteousgelato, you already know they’re one of one, so of course I had to go in there and see how they’re making the good stuff 👀 

[Went home with 4 pints not 6!]

Stay tuned to see what other gems I discover in the city this summer!

This was different from any other market l’ve be This was different from any other market l’ve been to in the best way 👏🏾This is Souq Wagif, Doha’s iconic
market place that speaks volumes about the culture and history there ✨

Here are some things to do while you’re at the souq:

🛍️ Shopping & Culture
- Traditional Markets: The alleys are filled with stores selling spices, textiles, perfumes, and handicrafts
- Gold Souq: Several shops sell intricate gold jewelry, and we all know Middle Eastern craftsmanship is top tier!
- Souq Waqif Art Center: Explore various galleries and exhibitions, celebrating Qatari creativity.

🐪 Animal Encounters
- Camel and Horse Stables: Visit the camels and horses, this was definitely a highlight for me!

🥘 Food
- Local Cuisine: Enjoy traditional Qatari dishes like machboos and harees at various eateries within the souq.
- Parisa Restaurant: Experience Persian dining here - the setting is truly stunning

I was there past midnight but most of the stores were closed! Plan to go during their regular hours to get the most out of your visit.

The way I would alwaysss ignore those routes with The way I would alwaysss ignore those routes with the long layovers and scroll RIGHT past it because I just wanted to get to my final destination quicklyy! But this time I thought l’d try something different. Instead of seeing it as an inconvenience, I saw it as an opportunity to visit a new country and ended up in one of the most beautiful places l’ve ever been to
Of course passport privilege plays a role in being able to do this, but also, some places offer visa on arrival, which makes this option a lot more accessible!

Tip: Some international airports offer tour services for people in transit, so look out for those as well! I used @discoverqatar for a group tour on my way to my final destination, but on the way back I got a private driver via the airport’s car rental service.

okay let’s talk about it!! cause idkk, I feel li okay let’s talk about it!! cause idkk, I feel like some of you are being a little bit dramatic 👀

personally, I absolutely love this drink, but honestly if you don’t get it from the right place, you’re definitely going to hate it cause it’s not a pleasant taste by nature. you gotta add some razzle dazzle to it and it has to be done right✨ @tsujiri_alberta never misses, so I’d definitely recommend! give it a try and let me know what you thinkk 🍵

but first let’s chat, is matcha for you or did you try it and think absolutely not? ⬇️
