Located in the heart of Silicon Valley, Palo Alto is known for its entrepreneurial spirit and sunny weather. This small town on the peninsula is worth a day trip from the city for more than just business meetings.
This collection features my personal favorites around town from top-notch restaurants to nearby nature hikes and local gardens.

I went to go visit some sloths 🦥 as well as enjoy a few days hanging out with great wildlife. Manuel Antonio is a great spot on the southern Pacific coast of Costa Rica and a quick drive from San Jose Airport. I'd say 2-3 days is a perfect amount of time to enjoy the area and the beaches.

One of the best parts about traveling is trying the local cuisine. Turkey is an international meeting point between the East and the West, and because of this, the local food in Istanbul is varied and delicious. The best way to try the local food in Istanbul is to sample street food from the local vendors.
In this guide, I share the top 10 best street foods to try in Istanbul on your next visit. I'll give you recommendations on the best food to try, the most famous vendors to visit, as well as tourist traps you'll want to avoid.

Planning a trip to Marrakesh? Known as the "Red City" for the hue of its historic buildings and walls, Marrakesh is a hub of culture and tradition, where modernity and ancient customs blend.
The medina is a winding maze of streets filled with the hustle and bustle of motorcycles, donkeys and vendors. For this reason, I ALWAYS recommend travelers to book at least a couple of guided excursions, at least so that they can get their bearings.
I've had so many friends (who are avid travelers themselves) take the same approach with seeing Morocco as they do with Lisbon; arrive and see what happens. And then they come back saying that Morocco was just not their cup of mint tea.
Don't do that. Morocco is a wonderful place to explore if you do a little preparation in advance and get some guidance.
This FREE 3 day city guide will help you narrow down all the wonderful things there are to do and see and make sure you're not missing out on memorable experiences during your time in Marrakesh.
This guide includes
👉 Detailed outlines of what you should do each of the 3 days
👉 10 tour suggestions
👉 3 hammam recommendations
👉 10 hotel recommendations
👉 11 restaurant recommendations

I believe having good coffee and conversation is one of life's simplest and most beautiful pleasures, which is why I am always on the lookout for new cafés, not only in places I travel to but also in my own Cologne neighborhood.
Cologne does not disappoint when it comes to great coffee roasts and making sure you're never far from the next place to get caffeinated and loaded with good ol' German pastries and bread.
Have fun exploring the Domstadt & let me know if you enjoyed any of these spots!

We just came back from traveling in Albania and we visited so many amazing and unique areas. From the mountains, to the riviera, and the historical towns in between. We LOVED our time in Albania.
This guide will show you the wonderful places we stayed and LOVED as well as many beautiful spots we saw along the way that I would have also loved to have stayed in and would go back to someday.
This is the result of lots of research and thought put into these curated spots.
In the notes section of each I will list reasons why these places appealed to me and why I think they would be great stays or why I KNOW they were. I will indicate which places we stayed in ourselves as well.
Please feel free to reach out to me any time with any questions at planformedani@gmail.com or @planforme.dani on instagram.
Also know that if you book hotels through my recommendations I do receive a small commission at no cost what so ever to you! It could help me to keep finding and recommending these great spots!
