Suzuka

Suzuka Circuit Another big reason for me to visit Nagoya is its proximity to Suzuka. Being a Formula One fan, one of my bucket list items is visiting all the tracks and Suzuka Circuit is one of them. After picking up some breakfast from a nearby convenience store, I head to the train station to head to Suzuka Circuit. Suzuka is about an hour train ride from Nagoya so with a late morning departure...

Lunch at Tevy's After another sleep in, I have another lazy start to the day. I'll be leaving Cambodia today heading to Nagoya. So part of today will be packing in anticipation of heading to the airport. In the late morning, I head out to Tevy's for a "breakfasty" meal. I really enjoyed my dinner at Tevy's, so a revisit is in order! This also didn't disappoint! I order some noodles in soup along...

It starts with a very quick hop from Vancouver to Seattle to overnight before an early morning flight to LA. I stay...

I have been immensely fortunate to check off bucket list items over the years. For this year I wanted to intentionally focus on sharing experiences with others. So every trip this year, is with the...

Travelling Minions 2023, a Year in Review

ByTravelling Minion December 31, 2023 5 Comments
2023 seemingly feels like a bigger travel year than others in the past. While I didn't go on as many trips, the ones I did go on felt pretty grand and I'm not upset by it! Traditionally, I've tried to have one "big" trip and multiple smaller ones throughout the year. However, this year it feels reversed with multiple big trips and only a few smaller trips. Even with a pause in travel in order to...

It's now time to do a wrap up on my fall trip to Morocco. In a last hurrah, both Gimpy and I have deemed this as our last "big" trip together. Over the years we've been fortunate enough to do embark on some amazing adventures. So we ensure we put an exclamation mark on our time travelling together! If you've spent anytime to read through the trip, Thank You! If you haven't and want to, you can...
