𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐫 - 📍𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐫 𝐋𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐝𝐚 🛗

➡️ Did you know, in Salvador, you can go up and down…and all around? 😆

Well maybe just up and down, with the famous :

📍𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐫 𝐋𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐝𝐚 🛗

One thing I can tell you about Salvador is that it is packed with so much history, and yes, that includes this elevator!

.

✨ 𝐅𝐮𝐧 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐫 𝐋𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐝𝐚✨

🛗 This elevator actually separates upper Salvador (Cidade Alta) with lower Salvador (Cidade Baixa)

🛗 It was built between 1869 and 1873

🛗 A one-way ride costs 3 cents (15 centavos) 💵

🛗 It is the world’s first outdoor, public elevator

.

It’s well worth the trip, cause upper and lower Salvador are actually quite different.

Both very busy, but each having a different charm to them.

.

⚡️𝐏𝐫𝐨 𝐓𝐢𝐩:

Watch your phone 📱 when taking pictures. Similar to Rio, cell phones are a hot commodity, and locals will tell you theft (especially by cyclists 🚴‍♂️) is very common.

Lower Salvador (Cidade Baixa), I noticed can get a bit more congested than upper Salvador, so just be on the lookout.

Is Thailand Safe for Solo Women Travelers? 5 Safety Tips

Saturday! It was such a magical night. I pretty much took myself on my perfect date.

It started out slow, I slept in and didn't get out of bed till after 11am. I had some caffeine and did some writing. After that I ran to Target to get some bike shorts to wear under my skirt. I also got some snacks for the morning since I had to leave relatively early to catch my flight back home on Sunday.

I had dinner at the Boathouse on the second floor of the Double Tree. It was a lot fancier than I thought it would be. I ordered ice tea and it came in a stemmed glass. I had a really nice view of the Charles River. The stuffed lamb was really good. So was the rest of the food.

After dinner I went down to Sculler's Jazz Club on the first floor. The tables next to mine were occupied by a bunch of ladies and we all kind of merged into one group. We talked and laughed before the show started. Gerald Albright was the artist, I would recommend seeing him if you have a chance. It was good music with a bunch of new friends. I'm always surprised on my solo trips that a lot of the time I find random people to talk to. Even when not staying at a hostel.

Solo travel can be lonely at times, but other times you just run into the right people at the right place. I had an amazing time in Boston the music, shopping, and history were all superb.

The flight home was uneventful. I got a lot of writing done in my journal, listened to some soft jazz and took a nap. I'll try to do a complete trip summery later this week.

Safe travels everyone ☺️

Solo Women Travelers

“YOU’RE SO BRAVE!”

When I tell people I’m traveling solo, that’s the most common response I get. And while it’s a well-intentioned comment, I’m irked that anyone still thinks a woman setting off alone might feel isolated or intimidated. In an ideal world, solo female travel wouldn’t be defiant or courageous, it would be simply a personal preference. In fact, when I take a trip by myself, my senses seem acutely tuned in to my environment, from the people I meet (or shy away from) to the streets I walk down (or skip).

Still, when we asked our readers and social communities what they learned on solo journeys, more than half of the women responded with tips on avoiding harm. And while 26 percent of millennial women have traveled by themselves, it’s a reality that women of all ages face certain vulnerabilities on the road. Like many of my friends, I take self-defense classes for peace of mind. Yes, the courses teach groin kicks or elbow strikes, but they (and our readers) also preach avoiding hazardous situations altogether.

Yet as I read the stories women shared, their enthusiasm for adventure and transcendence of fear impressed me the most. Reader Rita Pearson may have summed it up best: “Number one, safety first. Number two, just go!”

Road Trips & Camping

Motorcycle Camping Setup

I love flying and going to new states and new countries. I love to submerge myself in cultures and get to know the locals.

But........

I also sometimes need to spend some time alone in the woods communing with nature. And if you couldn't tell from my profile picture, I enjoy taking my motorcycle on these trips. It's a chance to leave my computer behind, disconnect, and take some nature walks. I usually bring some books and a journal to write in, space is very limited so not to many luxuries. I typically try to find "backpacking" camping gear. It's light weight and compact.

My motorcycle is the Kawasaki Versys X-300, a very small Adventure Touring bike. I have the small side boxes that you can get from the manufacturer, but decided I wanted something bigger than the Kawasaki top box and went with Givi and got a 46 liter box. It's enough for a one person tent, sleeping bag, and a small camp kitchen. I feel like the ride is as fun as the camping. I tend to map out winding roads and leave early enough to not be rushed. I bring snacks to eat at rest stops and a lot of water, riding can make you thirsty.

I'm going to cut this one short as I am going on a small afternoon adventure that I'll tell you about next time.

Traveling enriches one’s self through the experience of visiting new places, cultures, and cuisines. However, for most of us, while on a packing spree, the most challenging task is to go light with the suitcase and yet in style with the ethnic wear. Ethnic attire is full of vibrant colours and elaborate designs and is highly cross-cultural, holding infinite possibilities of being versatile and travel-friendly if chosen well. Here is how you can pack light and look fabulous in your ethnic wear when traveling.
