Driving from North to South in Portugal
When my friends and I decided to book a trip to Portugal, we had a hard time choosing where we wanted to go. The choice between a city trip in Porto or Lisbon, or spending a week at the beach in Algarve was a hard one to make. Instead, we decided to cover it all. Cities, small fishing villages, and many opportunities for swimming in the atlantic ocean. We spent 10 days in Portugal and we visited in September. I recommend bringing warmer clothes alongside your swimgear and summer clothes at this time of year. Below you'll find our itinerary with tips and tricks along the way.

Somewhere between familiar roads and predictable schedules, Kuwait stopped being just where I lived and became where my life happened.

Snow in Morocco: A Side of the Country Most Travelers Don’t Expect
When most people think of Morocco, they imagine warm deserts, sunlit medinas, and palm trees swaying under a blue sky. Snow rarely comes to mind. Yet every winter, parts of the country quietly shift into a completely different landscape one shaped by cold air, white mountain peaks, and villages wrapped in silence after snowfall.

I didn’t arrive in Rissani expecting much. After days of driving through southeastern Morocco, it felt like just another quiet town near the desert. No crowds, no souvenir shops, no signs pointing to “must-see attractions.” But the moment I stepped into the souk, I realized I had walked into something far older and more meaningful than I anticipated.

I Thought Coming Back to Sri Lanka Would Feel Familiar.
I had always imagined that returning to Sri Lanka would feel simple. After years abroad, the idea of coming back carried a comforting logic. Familiar streets. Familiar language. Familiar rhythms. I told myself that returning home would be easier than leaving it in the first place.
