I love traveling!

This is not a secret - anyone who has ever been around me for at least five minutes has probably heard my spiel about how traveling is an investment in your future and blah blah blah.

I've already been on three continents (Africa, Europe, and North America), in eight countries (Tanzania, Kenya, Canada, Germany, England, France, Italy and the good ol' USA) and in too many beautiful cities to count.

Yes, I count where I live because hey, I've been there haven't I? But anyways, even though I've been all over the world there is still a ton of places I want to see. This list is only five of them, but these are the places I want to see most - at least for right now.

1. The Sea Organ - Zadar, Croatia

After WW2, this city in Croatia had suffered massive damage. An architect came up with the idea of replacing a broken concrete wall with steps that had airways for the water to go through...creating an organ sound. This has been on my bucket list for a long time and I can't wait to see hear it someday.

2. Prince Edward Island - Canada

I have wanted to visit this island since I was a really little girl because Anne of Green Gables (which is one of my favorite book series/movies ever!) was set there. My grandma and I are going to go on a trip there someday.

3. Mexico City - Mexico

I really can't believe that I live in California and I've never been to Mexico, especially since I love to travel. I really want to go to Mexico City because of the rich history and museums (Mexico City has the largest concentration of museums in one city in the world!) as well as some BOMB food. Give me all the tacos.

4. New Orleans - Louisiana, USA

This is pretty high on my bucket list. I have always loved the allure of this city, and especially the history of the voodoo and the bayou. Whenever I do go here I want to stay in somewhere that is considered haunted!

5. Taj Mahal - Agra, India

This one is going to have to happen fast! UNESCO has stated that the Taj Mahal will be close by 2018 because of the crumbling marble. This will probably be my next big trip because I don't want to die without seeing it up close.

While this is nowhere near all of the places I want to go, its a pretty good start. I hope to go to all these places and more in the next few years. I would love to hear about all the different places that you all want to go so comment and let me know!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
