My Super Frugal Trip to Belgium- My Day Trip To Bruges
Just letting you know in advance that this is a very, very, very picture heavy post… When I wrote that I was going to Belgium, specifically to Brussels, many people told me that if I was going all the way there, I shouldn’t just stay in Brussels, but also should go to Bruges, called the “Venice […]
My Super Frugal Trip to Belgium- Part 1- Traveling to Brussels
I last posted when I was on the bus on the way to the airport in the middle of nowhere on Saturday night, and I am going to keep this relatively short (and I’m writing it at the airport in Belgium, waiting for my flight back home that leaves in 6 hours), because the next […]
Preparations For My Super Cheap Trip to Belgium
I’m writing this post from my phone so apologies if the formatting is messed up, there’s only so much I can do on my phone. I am currently on the bus on the way to the airport leaving to Brussels, Belgium. I didn’t mention in my last post on the topic that I got insanely […]
A Last Minute Trip to Belgium
I know, I know… I said I was going to Cyprus in February, got a Black Friday deal…. but while I was looking at the website a few days ago, Sunday, I saw super cheap tickets, also 25 dollars round trip, to Brussels, Belgium… On Sunday. This Sunday, the 3rd of December. Coming back Thursday, […]
My One Black Friday Purchase- I’m Excited!
So of course, Black Friday is today. Some people are in love with it and take advantage of all the sales they could find and stock up on things for the holidays and the rest of the year even. Black Friday, if done properly, could really help you save money for the rest of the […]
Biking, Exploring, and Cooking- My Polish Vacation, Day 2
Sorry I didn’t get this post the day it happened, about 2 week ago. I wrote most of it then but was too tired to post it, and then decided to save writing and posting about my trip until after I came home. If I had to sum up my first official day on Poland […]
Foraging Wild Edibles in Poland- With Lots of Pictures!

Having never stepped foot in Poland before, I assumed that going there, I might recognize one or two different edible plants, and maybe do a drop of foraging. I was not expecting to recognize most of the plants there, with them being things I regularly forage locally, or plants I’m familiar with even if I didn’t […]
My Poland Trip- Day One, Sorta
It is currently 3:15 am Polish time, and I’m tired. I just decided that I want to write a blog post every day of my trip (or nearly) so I’ll keep this short and head straight to bed, so I can be bright eyed and bushy tailed tomorrow for my bike trip through the country […]
Getting Ready for My Trip
Sorry I haven’t been so talkative lately, still trying to figure out certain things about this blog… but in addition to that, I’ve been pretty busy lately doing all sorts of stuff, including teaching various foraging and shopping classes around and more importantly, getting ready for my trip! I leave tomorrow for Lublin, Poland, and […]
Planning an Exciting and Frugal Vacation Abroad
Destination: Lublin. Photo credit Lukaszprzy I recently learned about a site called SkyScanner.com, which allows you to find cheap flights around the world. Unlike many price comparison websites where you need to put in a specific location and specific dates, SkyScanner lets you put in your departure location, and then from there on, it’s flexible. […]
