Review: The World’s Longest Flight – 19 Hours In Singapore Air Business Class

It was February 2020 and Young Purple was naive 🙂 . As the world started to shut down, my Mom and I were discussing a trip to Thailand we had been planning for years that was going to take place in February 2021. As of February 2020 (when we had no idea that this pandemic would last more than two years), we decided to start booking our trip.

Slow Travel Review: Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA – The Land Of Chili Peppers

A theme has emerged since I started doing these Slow Travel Reviews: I need to have less assumptions and be more open, and living in Santa Fe, New Mexico for the month, continued to drive this lesson home. Because Santa Fe is in the Southwest I assumed it was:

  1. Flat
  2. Hot
  3. Void of Trees

Slow Travel Review: Catskill, New York, USA – The Land Of Mountains

I’m sensing a pattern in these Slow Travel Reviews – I need to be more open 🙂 . I continue to be surprised with how awesome new towns are and how much they have to offer.

Slow Travel Review: Portland, Maine, USA – The Land Of Deliciousness

I have been slowly stepping out of my comfort zone after quitting my job. First it was moving across the country from Washington to Georgia. Then it was seeing if I liked living in a tiny house. Then it was moving to the major city of Atlanta to see it in a way that even being born and raised in Georgia didn’t allow me to.

Slow Travel Review: Decatur, Georgia, USA – The Land Of Flowers And Food

As someone who was born and raised in Georgia, learning that somewhere like Decatur, GA exists downtown is simply wild. I have gone on and on about how Atlanta represents some of the worst things about our modern world, such as the impossible traffic, lack of public transportation or sidewalks and the general creepy Stepford Wives feel of the suburbs I grew up in.
