Vida Nómada: Me Siento en Casa cuando puedo Desempacar

Espero que mi toallita para la cara de La Sirenita distraiga del resto de mi desorden; no tengo mucha privacidad donde me estoy quedando y el lugar para poner mis cosas es el suelo. Justo ahora estaba organizando mi equipaje lo mejor que pude, ordenándolo contra el pedacito de pared que decidí iba a ser… Continue reading Vida Nómada: Me Siento en Casa cuando puedo Desempacar

Nomadic Life: Home is Where I can Unpack

I hope my Little Mermaid facecloth will detract attention from the rest of my mess; I don’t have much privacy and the place for my stuff is, well, the floor. Just now, as I was trying to tidy up my things as neatly as I could against the wall I’ve claimed as my own, I… Continue reading Nomadic Life: Home is Where I can Unpack

Vida Nómada: Persiguiendo Cascadas en el Amazonas

Creciendo en los 80s y 90s, siempre me dijeron que podía hacer y ser lo que quisiera, y me lo creí. A mi generación siempre nos dijeron que el mundo era nuestro, que podíamos llegar a la luna si es lo que queríamos, que todo era posible; siempre nos dijeron que los únicos límites que… Continue reading Vida Nómada: Persiguiendo Cascadas en el Amazonas

As 2015 comes to a close here in Belém, on Brazil's north-east, I sat by the Amazon River to think about the past year and all the amazing places I was lucky enough to visit. I've been so blessed to do what I love and spend it with the people I love this year, so… Continue reading Best of 2015 Travels

Nomadic Life: Chasing Waterfalls in the Amazon

Growing up in the 80s and 90s, I was always told I could do and be anything I wanted, and I believed it. We, as a generation, were told to reach for the stars, that the sky was the limit, that the world was our oyster, that it was at our feet, in the palm… Continue reading Nomadic Life: Chasing Waterfalls in the Amazon

Nuquí: Whales

Desde la primera vez que visité Nuquí, en la costa Pacífica de Colombia, me enamoré de su arena negra y su selva color esmeralda reflejada en las aguas cristalinas de los ríos y el mar. Pero entre los meses de junio y noviembre este rincón mágico del país es aún más especial, siendo el lugar… Continue reading Nuquí: Whales

Mi Vida Nómada: Encontrando el Camino desde Manaus

Había estado tratando de escribir algo sobre Manaus en las últimas semanas; algo de esta extraña y loca ciudad de concreto que no logro entender pero que me ha encantado desde la noche que llegué. Ubicada en el medio del Amazonas, Manaus tiene 2.5 millones de habitantes y se extiende por más de 11,000 km²… Continue reading Mi Vida Nómada: Encontrando el Camino desde Manaus

My Nomadic Life: Finding the Road from Manaus

For a few weeks now I'd been trying to write about Manaus, this strange, crazy, concrete jungle of a city which I can't quite figure out but have loved from the night I arrived. Located in the middle of the Amazon Rainforest, Manaus is home to 2.5 million people and spreads out over 11,000 km²… Continue reading My Nomadic Life: Finding the Road from Manaus
