10 Travelling Tips

Image
I like travelling a lot, if you ever get to see around this blog you will see some of my trips re-cap.  Unfortunately I don't get to do it very often, only when I have enough money to do it and time... but I've done it enough to make a list of tips that may be helpful in case you want to make a short trip and keep it in your budget! 1. Find a bed I believe the most important thing when you already know you are going to travel is to find where to stay! Even though you could do it at the moment of your arrival, is always more comfortable to do it while you're at home.  There are very good booking sites, but the one i personally like the most is www.hostelworld.com because it offers very good quality places with very accessible places! Also, if you know to which airport, station, or place you will be arriving it offers hostel localization in a map so you can select those closer to your arrival place or close to a subway station and you don't have to walk ...

Moment App – Results

Image
So, my last entry was about this Moment App, which again I’ll leave you BuzzFeed’s video that made me download it in the first place. So, my predictions were that maybe I use my iPhone around 2 hours and I pick it up from 60 to 80 times a day. Here are the results from the 1st day. Actually downloaded the app on January 26 (Enero 26) but it was at night so I started counting from the next day. So, it was almost the same amount I predicted... 127 minutes equal 2.12 hours, but I picked it up only 26 times... so probably some of those 26 were heavy usage pick ups haha.. I continued using the app for the following week and here are the results of the next days... why? because I thought the first day it was going to be "not very real" since I knew the app was counting my time on the phone, but by the 2nd day I totally forgot about it, and so I remembered yesterday when I was thinking about what my next entry would be about :) ! This is my week phone usage, in minutes!...

Moment App

So I downloaded in my iPhone the Moment App.. which it is supposed to track how much I use my phone during a certain period of time... I'm going to guess that in 1 day I use my phone a total amount of time of 2 hours... and I pick it up... around 60 to 80 times a day =O Thats my guess... Later on I'll post my resoults :) I'll leave you with this video from BuzzFeed where I got the idea to try the app !! Click here for more information on Moment App .

Thinking Out Loud

Image
First of all, as the title of this entry says is dedicated to the song Thinking Out Loud from Ed Sheeran; as I began listening to it I found that is a very nice song so… I thought to write something about it… First of all… here’s the song.     So calm and nice… right?   As I was listening to it this morning, I thought Ed Sheeran may be this generation’s John Mayer… I was a fan of him some time ago, I still like him but I haven’t heard from him in a while, well not that I have looked too much for it; but anyway, I feel they have a similar vibe.   This song talks about love, well no… more like falling in love… and talks about how different is when people falls in love… some for a limited time and others for much longer, but in the end we all get to experience this state at least once in our lives.   Is funny because I regularly don’t agree with overly lovely men or too romantic men; but oh well, it happens once in a while. He’s cute and unreacha...

Twenties Expectations [My Take]

Image
I stumbled upon a very interesting post in tumblr about "What to expect when you're expecting to ACTUALLY enjoy your Twenties" ... It is a comic-like post about realities some of us live when faced with the start of our twenties. At the moment, I'm 27 years old... so I actually already passed some of this situations but it only makes it funnier because I did live them... So here it is. I have had only 2 real boyfriends in my life, and only 1 was actually formal... and it also ended a long time ago at the beginning of my twenties... maybe 20 or 21. So ever since then I've been pretty much single, I may have had some fleeting relationships that were neither long nor significant... But other people around me, in my same age or sometimes younger are discussing marriage or children and I'm like "what!? but there's so much still you have to try and live!" but... is fruitless.  I've gotten to used to the single life that I'm ...

Planes para el presente... Sueños para el futuro

Image
Me considero una persona afortunada por tener expectativas e inquietudes para motivarme a hacer lo que muchos, a veces, no se atreven... Lo difícil de querer realizar mis ideales y objetivos, es que muchos de ellos implican un gasto... no es necesariamente algo malo, pero obviamente no soy millonaria ni siquiera rica... y este tipo de situaciones implican un esfuerzo definitivamente mas grande que tengo que hacer... Aun así, trabajo muy duro y gano mi dinero para poder cumplir mis objetivos. Me he propuesto, que este año 2014 será el ultimo año en el cual destinaré gran parte de mi dinero en viajes, y por esto mismo, como ultimo viaje estoy organizando uno a Japón! Aun y cuando fui una vez antes en 2013  y no me gusta ir dos veces al mismo lugar, Japón tiene una magia muy especial que quiero vivir una vez mas! El año pasado viaje con una muy buena amiga; y este año decidí hacer el viaje con mi hermana menor Luisa, quien también comparte el gusto por la cultura japonesa, y...

Lovely ramble ❤️

I always wanted to write about love... Love is a touchy subject for me for a lot of reasons... which, if I'm honest enough I may be able to list most of them... I'm really not used to having a love life... not because I didn't want to but because I'm rather scared of what might happen to me and my feelings. Experiences are what makes a person, and my experiences in general have been great... but in love matters I've actually have little experience... because I haven't permit myself to actually feel something towards someone else in a romantic way. It sort of sounds very drastic, but it has took me a long time to accept that I might be enough for someone else even if other say I am... is a personal issue I think I have to deal myself, and since I'm a good procrastinator, I have been pushing the matter further and further in time... waiting for that someone who may make me reconsider the lifestyle I'm trying to live in... Being honest with myself, I ...
