Five-day Getaway in Trabzon, Turkey

Trabzon is one of Turkey's beautiful cities. It is located near the Black sea and has land border with Georgia (Batumi City).  Its breathtaking nature, nice weather,  friendly residents, and variety of great food are only few of the reasons why its tourism starts to boom. Trabzon is a charming city in the black sea region. Uzungol Waterfalls Me and my friend decided to visit Trabzon in May 2022. To make the most out of the five-day trip, we planned our itineraries ahead of time. In most of our trip together, we don't put too much itineraries in a day so we still own our time. Trabzon's climate is cold throughout the entire year so we prepared more layers of clothing. Day 1:   Arrival and Strolling the city center. We flew via Turkish airline from Muscat to Trabzon for 4 hours and 20 minutes. It was raining when we arrived past lunch time. Trabzon's airport is not as big as the other airports so it will not take time to queue in t...

MY BUDGET FRIENDLY TRIPS TO 30 COUNTRIES

Enjoying my first travel experience, my dream of exploring the world did not stop there. As of January 2023, I have been to 30 countries and I can't wait for my next travel adventures.

Not all my travel experiences are good, but every trip is worth remembering. Mine, as much as possible, are all budget-friendly trips. I am usually availing of promo airfares and my hotel bookings are mostly in inexpensive accommodations. I plann...

Majestic Morocco

At Ourika Valley in Marrakesh The beauty of Morocco is very impressive and a six-day visit last November 2018 is quite a short stay to get the most out of the trip. Despite the short vacation, my friends and I enjoyed our DIY, mostly city-based trips in this majestic country in the northern tip of Africa. We arrived in Casablanca after traveling for eight hours and thirty minutes from Doha via Qata Airways. Casablanca is a port city and the business capital of Morocco. A relaxing city tour is possible within the day.  Our first stop is the Notre Dame de Lourdes Catholic Church , one of the two catholic churches in the city.   Casablanca is also home to the largest mosque in Africa, the Hassan II mosque , and we can’t help but admired this Muslim-worship place when we paid a visit. We also strolled the Morocco mall , the biggest shopping mall in Africa and one great stop for shopping experiences. Both high-end brands and ...
