Sandra
Hey there, it's great to meet you! I'm Sandra, the mastermind behind BlueMarble Vagabonds. As you might have guessed, I've got an incurable case of wanderlust and a serious writing (and coffee!) addiction, which led me down the path of travel blogging. When I'm not busy plotting my next adventure or crafting captivating stories, you'll find me outside adventuring or at home snuggling with my pups, rereading Harry Potter for the 27th time, and gobbling down yet another avocado toast (because, can you ever have enough?). And speaking of things I can't get enough of, I'm lucky enough to have a hubby who not only helps me run the behind-the-scenes of this blog but also puts up with my shenanigans 24/7 - even during our year-long honeymoon around the Blue Marble. He's definitely a keeper!

HIKING IN USHUAIA – DOs & definite DON’Ts
Hiking at the end of the world? C’mon, admit it, there’s a super cool edge to it.
And besides, we Slovenians are known to be a “hiking nation”, so when our new friends from the USA invited us to go hiking in Ushuaia together, saying “nope” was not an option. No matter the circumstances.
And that’s perhaps where things started to go wrong.
This is a story about our hilarious hiking in Ushuaia and all the DOs and DON’Ts you should(not) repeat.

And now you won’t need to wonder what to do in Oaxaca as we did, cuz ta-na-na-na* (*trumpets, of course!), we’ve put together 25 amazing things for you to do in Oaxaca.

4 DAYS IN MEXICO CITY: A PERFECT ITINERARY FOR FIRST TIMERS

Mexico City (aka CDMX, Cuidad de Mexico) is the capital of Mexico, usually visited by fewer travelers than more popular Yucatan peninsula. In addition, it »enjoys a reputation« of being very polluted and one of the most dangerous capitals. You know what we say? Bullocks! After all, Mexico City has almost 10 million inhabitants and, like in any other major city in the world, there is a certain amount of smog and a few neighbourhoods that are best avoided at night. I put together a perfect itinerary for 4 days in Mexico City for first-time visitors, including tips where to stay and what else to see, if you can add an additional day or two to this Mexico City Itinerary.

Soon after we embarked on our yearlong honeymoon, we started getting questions from our friends, relatives and even some strangers (ok, my mom’s coworkers who were pushed to read this blog, but anyway).
Do you think they wanted to know how we were doing, how we felt about Latin America or what our favourite things were?
Yeah, right.
They were all interested in one thing only.
MONEY.
