9 Insta-Worthy Destinations To Explore While You're In Your Twenties

Danielle Carolan

Traveling is something you should take advantage of because someday you won't be able to literally drop everything and go somewhere. Take advantage while you're in college because never again will you be around all your friends at the same time again. If you're thinking about it, just do it. No time like the present.

1. Nashville, Tennesse

See on Instagram

I've been to Nashville once — and I can't wait to go back again. Bar hopping, cowboy boots, country music are the recipe for the perfect vacation (in my opinion). There are so many things to do down there and AMAZING restaurants. It's a bigger city without the awful traffic. There are a lot of people, but it was one of the best destinations I've ever been to. I can't wait to go back with a group of my close friends.

2. Tampa, Florida

See on Instagram

I've actually never been to Tampa, but I've always wanted to. I've been to Florida many times, and I have only heard good things about Tampa. There are lots of shopping, food, and, of course, the beach which I can't wait for. Another fun and easy trip to plan with your ladies.

3. Santorini, Greece

See on Instagram

This might get a little more complicated as far as planning and $$$, but it would be so worth it. And definitely not just Santorini, you have to visit Athens and Mykonos too. Traveling to Europe with my besties is something I've always wanted to do. I don't know much about Greece, but I do know it's absolutely gorgeous and I would love to explore a place like that with my favorite people.

4. New York City, New York

See on Instagram

I've been to New York before but not the fun cool part. This would also be an awesome trip to take with your friends because there are literally a million things you could do there. Vacations literally revolve around food and it's so fun to visit restaurants with the food you've always wanted to try.

5. Venice, Italy

See on Instagram

Who doesn't want to go to Italy with their besties? This is the ULTIMATE girl trip and I am absolutely dying to go. The food, culture, scenery, music, language, etc. (can you tell I'm Italian OR that I studied Italian culture LOL). I especially want to go there for the Insta feed. I mean, what girl doesn't? The pictures and memories you would make are unreal and I cannot wait.

6. Dallas, Texas

See on Instagram

By far the most underrated city ever! I visited in January and fell in love — so in love that I'm considering moving there after college (wowza). It has the city feel that Chicago does without the million people walking into you. It has amazing shops and food. I honestly couldn't believe it. Not to mention how historically significant this city is, it is worth checking out. Add it to your bucket list right now.

7. Los Angeles, California

See on Instagram

Ahhh, Los Angeles, baby! such an overrated city in my opinion. If you haven't been there you should definitely see what all the fuss is about. The city does have amazing shopping and the food is great, but so does Chicago (soooooo, like?). What I really liked about LA was that it felt like Florida and Chicago combined — warm weather, good shopping, and food, beach a few minutes away. Weird, I know but that's how I felt. Take your lady gang and shop until you drop because this city is the place to do it if you're looking for a quick getaway.

8. Boulder, Colorado

See on Instagram

I am in love with Boulder. It was extremely refreshing to walk outside in the morning and see a mountain range rather than a busy suburban street. It isn't the most glamorous vacation you'll ever take but being in the mountains is amazing. Being surrounded by nature like that is so intense and cool if you haven't been before. Of course, there's also a lot of basic activities to do, but taking a morning hike rather than a walk around your neighborhood is 100% better.

9. Boston, Massachusetts

See on Instagram

I saved this one for last because I actually went to Boston with my best friend when we graduated from middle school. It was one of the coolest trips I've been on because we stayed in this hotel that was an old prison. This city is just so cool to walk around and sightsee. Definitely, a girls' trip you need to take!

I feel like most of these places don't need a lot of explanation. As I said, I've been to a few of these places, and they're all so amazing I would go back and there are so many places I still have to go. But, I am definitely ready to vacation with my besties.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
