Are you planning a trip to Colombia but aren’t sure how much it’s going to cost? I know the feeling, but now after returning from my own trip, I can tell you exactly what I spent. Using this information, I hope you are able to come up with a reasonable Colombia travel budget. But, if …
When I told friends and family that I had booked a trip to Colombia, many of them seemed to do a double take. “Is that safe?” I don’t think I’ve ever had more comments from people concerned about my safety for any other trip I’ve taken thus far in my life. It seemed that family …

However, that doesn’t mean that you can’t have a good time. You will need to pick and choose which activities …
I think ten days gives a great introduction to Scandinavia, but I realize that not everyone has ten days to dedicate to their trip. So I did some trimming of my itinerary and put together a one week Scandinavia itinerary. It includes some of my favorites from my 10 Day Scandinavia itinerary, but obviously it’s …
