    I love adventure travel and festivals, as you can see from my blog. Also, good FOOD and DRINK are my thing – always seeking out the best of both.

    Shiga is a wonderful prefecture in Japan, but for some reason, it's just off the tourist trail. There's so much to do here though, that if you're visiting Kyoto or Osaka, then it's totally worth taking the 1-3 hour journey to see some of Japan's countryside. Here's what you can expect from a quick trip to Shiga.

    I visited Hobe Sound in Martin County, Florida, with my friend Emily, to see what there was to do there. I found breakfast, lunch, rich people houses and some awesome murals to get posey in front of. Aaaand, it's also a great spot for a road trip too.

    The Cloud 9 Surfing Tower is the icon of Siargao. Even if you don't surf, like me, take a trip to General Luna to walk out to it. You get amazing views and it's such a unique opportunity to be that far out at sea.
