I’m Diana Edelman and you’ve landed at d travels ’round.

Welcome to my world of travel that has taken me from long-term solo travel to working with an elephant rescue organization and living in Chiang Mai, Thailand, to being a digital nomad in Europe, to returning to Las Vegas … and all of the adventures that transpire! Curl up here to get lost in travel tales, see what life is really like as an expat, find inspiration to take that leap, explore Las Vegas and other destinations around the world, and more travel goodness. Remember, life isn’t about living happily ever after, it’s about living!

Get Me on a Plane

"Do you want to come to New York?" my friend writes through WhatsApp. "I've got tons of miles, come." I sit and ponder for a moment. NYC.

Finding Serenity at Sarinbuana Eco Lodge

Calm. The moment I arrive to Sarinbuana Eco Lodge and walk down the narrow path surrounded by lush jungle vegetation, a good two hours from crowded roads, I feel it.

We wait down the hill in Boca de Tomatlan. It's humid, but a fan blows gently on us, cooling me down ... and my french fries. Icy cold Corona placed on the wooden table in front of me, I look off into the distance, squinting for signs of a little motor boat coming to whisk... Read More

Guide to Nightlife in Chiang Mai

Compared to the thumping and thriving nightlife in Bangkok, Chiang Mai at night is sleepy and reserved. But, sleepy and reserved in a way that isn't really sleepy or reserved at all. From backpacker enclaves to seedier lady bars, to local dives and the places where the hip and fabulous hang out, there's something for... Read More
