  ## Top Destinations for First-Time Solo Female Travelers

  I’m not the world’s foremost expert on solo female travel, but I have traveled around (at least) ten countries alone so I have a bit of insight on the subject. There are people on both sides of the fence regarding solo female travel–some are strongly for it and some are strongly against it. I fall

  ## Photo Friday: Diagon Alley

  I wouldn’t call myself the world’s biggest Harry Potter fan–but I’m also not shy about my love for HP. I visited the 9 3/4 platform in London a few years ago; visited the Warner Bros stand at a travel conference every day so that I could have my photo taken on HP’s broomstick in front

  ## Foodie Friday: Black Pudding

  source There are lots of things that really gross me out. Especially food-wise. And black pudding is one of those foods. When I first learned that it was a sausage made of blood mixed with some kind of filler, it was enough to make me gag. Even now, as I write that, I kind of

  ## Allure of the Scottish Highlands

  I took a one-day bus tour through the Highlands and knew it wasn’t going to be enough for me. I needed more than just a taste of those mountains and lochs. As luck would have it, my friends and fellow travel bloggers, Pete and Dalene, were housesitting in Fort William, so I decided to spend

  ## Taking it Easy in Edinburgh

  Ah, Edinburgh. It will always remain my number one Scotland love. I’ve only been twice, but each time I was there I had such a good feeling. It’s just one of those places that I dare you to walk around and not find yourself with a smile on your face.

  ## Getting to Know Glasgow

  My first stop on this whatever-you-wanna-call-it-trip was in Glasgow and I immediately kind of hated it. It felt big, dirty, and scary to me. When I was finally forced to leave my hotel room to get something to eat from the shop across the street, even then I felt oddly scared just to pick up

  ## Vacillation in Scotland

  I’ve been hesitant regarding finally writing about my time in Scotland, wanting to almost skip that chapter in my travelogue completely. It has nothing to do with the actual country, because let’s face it: I absolutely adore Scotland and loved every day of my time there in some regard. But, it was also my first

### What is “Megano?”

An “Italian” name (rhymes with “Figaro”) given to me
by a friend before I studied abroad in Rome. I had to be
more Italian, you see. It’s stuck ever since.
