The Care-free Caribbeans

I've heard of the frivolous lifestyle of the Carribic nations but never had I expected how chill these people were until I went over. Crossing the pond via Heathrow, I arrived in Nassau. To my shock, none of the currency exchange desks were open! A word to the wise for those going over to the Bahamas- there are no currency exchange counters at the airport, bring your own dollars! I did sort that issue with the kind help of some angels and were able to proceed with my birthday vacay!
Such a beautiful feeling, crossing the pond!

Hiking Kapuzinerberg!

Salzburg, the place I call home for three months now, is one stunning beauty of its own. It possesses the underrated charms of quaint mountainous beauty, paired with the often silent birth town of Mozart. Of course, it was once a German territory and Amadeus himself was a German because of this territorial chronology.  Chilling out at Cafe Baltazar On the 'treppe' (stairs) upwards to the hilltop Wow, people actually live here! (Kapuzinerberg) Entrance to the stairway of Kapuzinerberg Panoramic view from Kapuzinerberg. I apologize for the foggy photo However, Salzburg is completely different from the likes of Vienna, Prague or other nearby cities. It has its perfectly balanced nature and modern lifestyles. One perfect hangout is alongside the Salzach riverbanks. The river flows from my residence in General Keyes road up to the city and I orientate my route to the city on foot with its direction. My companion and I hiked up the foothills and snap...

Vapiano's in Zurich Yummy chocolate drink Eclair!!! (at Spruengli) Feeling contented with the way everything went! Amazing chocolate ice cream cake at the Rhinefall Cafe In Zurich's famous Spruengli The unmistakably stunning Rhinefall We crossed the border to Switzerland, clutching my passport in one hand, we had a smooth ride despite  the terrible snowfall on the Autobahn. Excited about seeing my companion's parents and also the chance to rest my ill-fated knee and a new peripheral pain to my right foot due to shift of body weight on the 'normal leg' to avoid pressure on the initial pain in the left knee. Long story short, I was in no condition to hike up Neuschwanstein, which was our supposed next-on-the-itinerary. Racing on the motorway, we had to slow down when we entered Swiss roads as penalty fines for speeding may be very well daylight robbery. My companion's mother once settled a fine for 200 euros for an extra 8kmh ov...

My my, it has been one of the most exhausting fortnights of my life! With our bags tightly packed,zipped and fitted unto the back of my travel companion's Mini Cooper, we jetted off to our first stop ---München otherwise known as Munich. Yes, this is where the famous Bavarian capital is located, but as international as it is, it is not the capital of Germany. It is a good hour and a half away from Salzburg. We manage to arrange a ride share with Paola, a Spaniard living in Salzburg after completing her Erasmus Mundus program...
