And this just happened. I’m proud to join the fu And this just happened. I’m proud to join the fully vaccinated club today after receiving my second dose at @uclahealth. Two weeks for full immunity and then I’m packing my bags and getting back to travel. Well, I hope so! So incredibly happy to have had this opportunity and a big thank you to the employees at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, like Izzy, Aaron, and Nydia, who were professional and helpful throughout the process.Now let’s get everyone vaccinated not just in the United States, but worldwide. While we have free access to the vaccine, many countries still don’t have the vaccine at all.

Perhaps the effect of enjoying a little too much sangria, but seriously - so many great buildings to enjoy. One of the reasons I would say that if you have the chance to travel to Spain, you should definitely go..

I freely admit that I’m more impulsive than most I freely admit that I’m more impulsive than most so you’re probably not going to be surprised to hear that I’m always up for a new tattoo or piercing on my travels. While in Hanoi, I decided to get an industrial piercing at 1984 Tattoo & Piercing Studios after having some yummy vegan food nearby at The Veg. Hurt like hell afterwards, but is one of my favorites. Have you ever gotten a tattoo or piercing while traveling?

I stopped at the Instagram famous “Train Street” when I visited Hanoi in August of 2019. Only two short months later, the government shut the cafes down and access to Train Street on foot for tourists. But it looks like the tourism industry, which has suffered in Vietnam like most countries, is pushing back. So if you’ve ever wanted your own selfie on Train Street, act fast because no one knows how long it will remain open.
