I see a lot of new friends here
Welcome, I’m really glad you found this space.

Hi, I’m Abieyuwa, a travel content creator, social worker, and mom of two, sharing realistic travel inspiration for busy women who want more out of life without waiting for perfect timing.

I travel while working full-time and raising a family, not because life is perfect, but because I’ve learned that waiting for the “right time” is how years quietly pass by.

Here, I share:
realistic travel tips
budget-friendly and intentional travel ideas
and inspiration for women balancing work, motherhood, and the desire to explore the world.

If you’re a busy woman who still wants to travel, rest, and experience more of life, you’re in the right place.

Stick around, you might find your next trip here.

I’d love to know where you’re tuning in from, say hi in the comments.

Planning Venice? Here are 5 simple things to add to your itinerary, prices included.

🛶 Ride the iconic gondola
It’s €90 for the boat and fits up to 5 people, so splitting the cost makes it much more reasonable. This is an easy way to slow down and soak in the canal views and it was absolutely worth it.

🎫 Get a 24-hour vaporetto pass
€25 gets you unlimited rides for 24 hours. It’s another way to see the Grand Canal and the city from the water without paying gondola prices.

⛴️ Take the vaporetto to Burano
Colorful houses, quiet canals, and a slower pace than central Venice. It’s about a 40-minute ride and is covered by your 24-hour pass, making it an easy half-day trip.

🚶🏾‍♀️Wander the quieter streets
Step off the main routes and walk without a plan. Some of the best moments are in the little cafés, markets, and alleyways.

🍨Have gelato at Gelatoteca Suso
Get the pistachio cream and eat it while you wander. Because gelato just hits differently in Venice.

📌 Save this for your Venice itinerary

What would you add to this list?

Not to put any ideas in your head but… you can take yourself on the date you've been waiting for someone else to plan

The Woodlands is one of those places I keep coming back to and somehow, every time, the experience feels different.

This time, I decided to make an ordinary afternoon feel like a little getaway.

No flight. No PTO. No elaborate plans.
Just taking the trolley, slowing down, enjoying the waterfront, discovering little details I'd normally rush past, and ending the afternoon with a good meal.

Sometimes, you don't need to go somewhere new. You just need to experience somewhere familiar differently.

Small shift, big reset.
Save this for when you need a change of scenery

What's one place you keep going back to because it never feels quite the same twice?

7 things I wish I knew before visiting Portugal 🇵🇹✨

1. That bread and cheese they bring to your table in Portugal? It's called couvert. It's not complimentary! If you eat it, you'll be charged. Don't want it? Politely decline.

2. Pastéis de nata are AMAZING! Eat them warm. You won’t regret it.

3. Porto and Lisbon feel like two completely different countries. They each have their own vibe, so if you can, visit both.

4. Lisbon’s trams are slow, but iconic. Take a ride at least once while you’re there.

5. English is widely spoken in tourist areas, so getting around is generally easy.

6. Sintra is one of the most magical day trips in Europe. If you’re visiting Lisbon and have the time, this is a MUST.

7. Lisbon’s public transport is affordable and makes exploring the city so much easier.

Save this for your Portugal trip! 🇵🇹

If your idea of a getaway is somewhere easy, walkable, and slow enough to actually rest, this one’s for you. You don’t need a long trip or a big plan to reset. A weekend in @prestigeresorts Nelson, BC🇨🇦 is all you need.

Walkable adventures from @prestigeresorts

1. Kayaking right on the lake
2. Cottonwood Falls Park
3. Baker Street shops and cafes
4. Rotary Lakeside Park for the sandy beach and a swim
5.Touchstones Nelson, an art and history museum in a gorgeous heritage building
6. Gyro Park lookout for the view over downtown and the lake
7.Sunset at Hall Pier Marina

Save this for the next time you need a break, and send it to the friend who’s always saying “we should go somewhere.”

Save this before your next trip ✈️

1. Check passport validity, not just expiry. Some destinations require 3-6+ months beyond your trip.

2. Photograph or video your luggage before handing it over. It helps if it’s damaged or there’s a dispute.

3. Missing the first flight on a multi-flight booking can cancel the rest. Contact the airline ASAP.

4. Don’t check in valuables. Keep your passport, cash, jewellery, documents, and electronics with you.

5. Carry some cash and a backup way to access money. Cards get declined, frozen, or hit limits, so keep a second card or extra cash separate from your main wallet.

6. Keep copies of your passport, visas, insurance, and itinerary. Email them to yourself and someone you trust.

7. Check roaming before you land. An eSIM can help you avoid surprise charges.

8. Get travel insurance and read the exclusions.

9. Never carry or watch a stranger’s bag. You don’t know what’s inside.

10. Pack a universal travel adapter. Plugs differ around the world.

The little things you don’t know you need to know until you need to know them.

Which one did you NOT know?

#traveltips #travelcreator #travelhacks by @yuwa_uo

Once or twice a year, I leave my family.

To remember who I am outside of being a wife, mom, and my job.
To wake up slowly.
To wander wherever my heart wants.
To eat alone, in silence, and really taste it.
To just... be.

I love my family but i also love me, and I need time that’s only mine.

I always come back refreshed, with my cup full and the best version of myself.

Does this resonate?

Send this to a mom who needs a reminder.

Your ultimate punta cana all inclusive guide

Your trip can go one of two ways.

Same resort, Completely different experience depending on what you know going in.

The resort you pick, your room type, when you book dining, what’s actually covered… these details are the difference between a good trip and a great one.

I broke all of it down in this guide.

Save it before you book. ✈️

Hey Mama, when was the last time you did something just for YOU?

You spend so much time making life happen for everyone else that your own dreams keep getting pushed to “someday.”

But someday can turn into years and your bucket list deserves more than a place on paper. ❤️

It doesn’t have to be far or expensive. A girls’ trip, weekend getaway, or solo staycation still counts.

What’s one trip on your bucket list you keep telling yourself you’ll take someday?
