Exploring Istanbul in Two Days

Posted on July 15, 2014February 1, 2017by Manhattan to Roam

Losing Our Luggage WIth Vueling Airlines

Posted on July 10, 2014February 1, 2017by Manhattan to Roam

Losing your luggage is never fun. It’s really not fun when you’re in a foreign country on a budget airline and an island. We flew to Mykonos from Split with a connection in Rome.
