First ski in Europe! Broke nose on day 1. Sprained thumb on day 2. Caught flu on day 3. Dolomites were as breathtaking as I imagined they would be. Food, as per usual in Italy, sucked for me. Pasta on pizza on pasta on carbs. Can't girl get a veg around here? Lots of hand talking. Locals only hiking spot. Too many gondolas and not enough lifts. Italians don't think they speak Spanish, but tend to understand it anyway. I'll sit with these guys. |

Escape from reality in a dirt road town. Mosquitos will eat you alive. Use deet 40%, melt your skin away, and still get bitten. Watch sunrise and sunset from the same Caribbean beach where you can see snow capped mountains. Eat locally grown mangos and coconut to your heart's content. Very special spot. |

(It seems my paragraph formatting is being removed due to the length of my comment, so sorry you'll have to deal with the wall of text if you want to read this, haha) Have been in Bangkok for the past 6 months. I've been nomadic for the past 4 years across Europe & the US, and as someone who is used to walking everywhere and greenery, I found it quite difficult living here. I spent my first 5 months living in Airbnbs, which were fine for around $6-800/m, and for the last month decided to live in
