FAQs

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WITH THE TRAVEL NUGGET

Why the name "Travel Nugget"?
Well there were a lot of options for my name. I was honestly thinking about eating fried chicken and I was wondering if I were a piece of fried chicken, what I'd be..and well I'm small and the name just came to me lol.
Where are you from?
The location of the Travel Nugget will remain a mystery....but all I can say is that she's tucked away on a Caribbean Island.
Why a travel blog?
This blog actually started off as a "Natural Phenomenon" blog where I was going to blog about all these amazing places and while researching, I fell in love with the places and it evolved into a travel wish-list blog.
How long have you been blogging?
Very recently, I only started in May 2017 as a requirement of one of my MBA course but it's becoming a hobby of mine.
What's your favourite thing about this blog?
I love researching all of these amazing places and learning about them. It makes me really excited to see them all one day.
Have you visited all the places on your blog?
No, I haven't visited. This blog is more of a travel wishlist, than a blog about where I've been. 
Do you plan on visiting all the locations?
Of course I do. I'm hoping to visit at least a couple places per year soon.
What's the top place you'd like to visit?
Greece...I love and adore Greece.
Would you travel alone?
Maybe some places I won't mind going alone, but I really prefer nice company to share my experiences with.
Who are some of your favourite travel bloggers?
There's a lot I follow. Some of my favourites are (in no particular order); The Travel HackThe Blonde AbroadHand Luggage OnlyThe Poor TravelerAround The World In Eighty YearsGirl vs GlobeWorld Of Wanderlust Wandering EducatorsXpatt MattMy Adventures Across The World and Packing My Suitcase.

Nugget & The Pink Lakes

You thought the lakes on  Nugget & The Surreal Lakes  were bizarre? Well take a look at these lakes.  They're Pink ! Permanently and entirely pink lakes! The unique beauty of these lakes has made them top tourist attractions and visitors fly from all over the world to witness these phenomena firsthand. PINK LAGOON, MEXICO First up - Pink Lagoon,   Mexico.  This natural pink wonder   adorns the tiny fishing village of  Las Coloradas , Mexico. The mesmerising beauty is framed by  crystal-like white salt  and is one of the most photographed pink lakes in the world. The shallow lagoon's  beautiful colour  comes from the chemicals released by an abundance of  red plankton  and  brine shrimp . As the sun evaporates the salty waters, the remains are fresh sea salt which has made the area famous for its  salt mining  since the rule of the Mayan Empire to present.

Nugget & The Travertine Terraces

The best J acuzzis aren't found in the fanciest hotels or the most exquisite homes, but rather, they were crafted and sustained by nature itself. These hot spring terraces have been around for many years, providing  luxurious baths for all visitors and today, they are top tourist destinations around the world. PAMUKKALE, TURKEY Literally meaning " cotton castle " in Turkish, Pamukkale is located in the Denizli Province of Southwestern Turkey . Its name was derived from the shimmering , snowy-white limestone surface which were shaped into calcium-rich hot springs. These springs are some of the most beautiful and photogenic in the world and judging by pictures, I can see why. There are 17 hot spring travertine terraces in which bathing is permitted; bathing is allowed - my favourite thing about here.  Photo credit: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/419749627760761453/ CLIFFSIDE POOLS, MEXICO The Las Grutas de Tolantongo is a natural spa resort and box canyon ...

Nugget & The Blue Holes

Looking for an underwater adventure? Blue holes are usually found in shallow coastal areas and the darker the shade of blue, the deeper it goes. The Travel Nugget won't venture into these depths for 2 reasons. Firstly, diving in these places has a prerequisite of logging over 25 dives so an extreme amateur, like the Travel Nugget, can't. Secondly, the mystery of the creatures that lurk in dark, deep waters scare me. GREAT BLUE HOLE, BELIZE The Great Blue Hole of Belize is the most popular blue hole and I have no idea what its appearance reminds me of. It measures over 300 meters across and 124 meters deep. The blue hole rests in the middle of Lighthouse Reef where an island of corals encircles the shallow area, giving it a beautiful turquoise colour. Many visit by boat and aerial tours while the more adventurous opt for skydiving into the waters. I imagine myself screaming at the top of my voice until I touch the water if I ever attempt that one but maybe, just maybe, ...

Nugget & The Surreal Lakes

When you think of a lake, you might just think of a still mass of water, possibly laden with crocodiles and other unfriendly creatures but these lakes are so phenomenal. They're amazing for bathing, sightseeing, diving, playing or just to go to for a moment to appreciate the beauty of this world that we sometimes too often take for granted. DEAD SEA, ISRAEL Who ever thought the something called the Dead Sea could be so breathtakingly beautiful. The Dead Sea is the lowest point on earth , but the most remarkable thing about it is that it is impossible to sink when floating because the salt density is so high, almost ten times saltier than the ocean. The water is also believed to have healing properties for skin issues.  However, due to this hypersalination , no fish can survive in the water which removes the fear of creatures touching my toes while I'm in the water. Ironically, people have drowned in the Dead Sea because they disobey the one rule of floating there, on...

Nugget & Unorthodox Places

I may not exactly want to visit all these places, but their  uniqueness and weirdness deserves them a right to be blogged about by the Travel Nugget. They're definitely places to go to if you're seeking an adventure. GRUNER SEE, AUSTRIA Gruner See or "Green Lake" is a lake found in the village of Styria, Austria. The name originated from the beautiful emerald green colour of the water. However, the pretty colour isn't the main reason why I'm interested in this spot. During the winter, the lake is merely 3 to 7 feet deep and people enjoy the surrounding county park facilities. However, as Spring approaches and the temperature rises, the snow melts away and the water is collected in this emerald basin transforming it into a beautiful version of a snapshot from the 1995 movie, Waterworld. The water level rises to a maximum depth of 39 feet which swallows the park and many scuba divers explore this water-world. Venturing under these waters, the theme song ...
