I've been in a bit of a slump, but I finally wrote something for the blog: a guide on getting to and around the Great Wall of China, and why you should opt for Mutianyu instead of Badaling. Also, go in November!! Look at these colors! 🍁🍂 Link to the blog in bio! . . . . #whywallsgreattiltheygottabegreat #greatwallofchina #mutianyu #mutianyugreatwall #truthhurts #explorechina #autumn #sadgirlthotumn #china #china🇨🇳 #igersbeijing #thetravelwomen #dametraveler #sheisnotlost #wanderlust #girlswhotravel #ladiesgoneglobal #everydayexplorer #passionpassport #girlslovetravel #girlsthatwander #girldiscoverers #travelandlife #femmetravel #femaletravelbloggers #passionpassport
🎶Why walls great till they gotta be great 🎶 (This is a reference to Lizzo and also the fact that the Great Wall did not keep the Mongols from invading China.) . . . . #greatwallofchina #mutianyu #mutianyugreatwall #truthhurts #explorechina #autumn #sadgirlthotumn #china #china🇨🇳 #igersbeijing #thetravelwomen #dametraveler #sheisnotlost #wanderlust #girlswhotravel #ladiesgoneglobal #everydayexplorer #passionpassport #girlslovetravel #girlsthatwander #girldiscoverers #travelandlife #femmetravel #femaletravelbloggers #passionpassport
Just me being 100% That Bitch on an absolutely terrifying glass bridge 💁🌉 Also if you try to slide into my DMs about this picture I will 100% block you (unless you are the actor from Plan Coeur) 🙅 . . . . #truthhurts #explorezhejiang #explorechina #zhejiang #zhejiangchina #riceterraces #suichang #nanjianyan #autumn #sadgirlthotumn #china #china🇨🇳 #igerszhejiang #thetravelwomen #dametraveler #sheisnotlost #wanderlust #girlswhotravel #ladiesgoneglobal #everydayexplorer #passionpassport #girlslovetravel #girlsthatwander #girldiscoverers #travelandlife #femmetravel #femaletravelbloggers #passionpassport
The weather around Mt. Fiji is notoriously fickle, especially if you're in Japan during typhoon season. (This area of Japan was hit really badly just a week after I left.) 🗻🌀 My friend Ai said how lucky we were to have beautiful weather. She said I'm hare-onna (晴れ女) which means someone who brings good weather 🌞 . . . . #hareonna #culturalexchange #mtfuji #fujiyama #yamanashi #igersyamanashi #chureitopagoda #japan #explorejapan #thetravelwomen #dametraveler #sheisnotlost #wanderlust #girlswhotravel #ladiesgoneglobal #everydayexplorer #passionpassport #girlslovetravel #girlsthatwander #girldiscoverers #travelandlife #femmetravel #femaletravelbloggers #passionpassport
Living in China is honestly super stressful for me... The noise and pollution of even a Tier 2 city (still 10 million people, small by Chinese standards) really starts to wear me down if I'm not careful. I'm not the kind of person who constantly needs to "reconnect with nature", but detoxes from the city in China are extremely welcome 🙌🌾🍂🍃 Especially when you can have someone else organize the trip for you (thanks @trendyadventurer !) . . . . #trendyadventurer #explorezhejiang #explorechina #zhejiang #zhejiangchina #riceterraces #suichang #nanjianyan #autumn #sadgirlthotumn #china #china🇨🇳 #igerszhejiang #thetravelwomen #dametraveler #sheisnotlost #wanderlust #girlswhotravel #ladiesgoneglobal #everydayexplorer #passionpassport #girlslovetravel #girlsthatwander #girldiscoverers #travelandlife #femmetravel #femaletravelbloggers #passionpassport
My friend Benedetta once told me I can talk to anybody, a skill which comes in handy for someone who travels alone but doesn't want to be alone all the time 🗻 So Benedetta gave me contact info of her friend Karmelysa (@rebel_pic ) when I went to Malta two years ago, since Karmelysa was there studying English. Karmelysa brought along her classmates when we met up, including Ai (pictured above) who is from Yamanashi, one of the towns at the base of Mt. Fuji 🗻 So here I am, reuniting with Ai halfway around the world from where we met 🌏 thanks for your amazing hospitality and generosity! The view of Mt. Fuji is amazing, and it's so much more special when you share it with friends 💗 . . . . #solotraveladventures #beingthatonegirlwhonevershutsup #igetitfrommygrandmother #mtfuji #fujiyama #yamanashi #igersyamanashi #chureitopagoda #japan #explorejapan #thetravelwomen #dametraveler #sheisnotlost #wanderlust #girlswhotravel #ladiesgoneglobal #everydayexplorer #passionpassport #girlslovetravel #girlsthatwander #girldiscoverers #travelandlife #femmetravel #femaletravelbloggers #passionpassport
