Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta is an annual event that happens for nine days in October in Rio Grande Valley. Enchanted special-shaped balloons ascend and create a majestic view in the sky. This event is one-of-a-kind and should be on your bucket list. Explore the Old Town while you're there and immerse yourself with their unique culture and cuisine.

Segovia, Spain: The Cathedral, Alcazar, and Roman Aqueduct

If you are in Madrid, make it a point to take that trip to the nearby Segovia. It is another historic place minus the hustle and bustle of the busy capital. We tried both transportation means. First, we took the bus, which was an hour-and-a-half ride. It was only EUR4 per person for a departure at 11 AM. Returning, we rode the fast train at only EUR14 per passenger departing at 5:30 PM.

Seeing its Christmassy streets, adorable decorations, well-placed parks, and Christmas markets, some stars popped out of my eyes. Haha! "Lovely" is an understatement. I like that everything is walkable, especially for people like me and my husband, who collect 10k steps or more daily.  The highlight of the trip is our Eiffel Tower Tour, which is featured on the YouTube short above. Our Facebook page also features a reel about one of the glitzy Christmas markets in the city.  If you try the Eiffel Tour, you have two c...
