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 Waterfalls

Waterfalls are some of the most spectacular  tourist attractions  which should be included on everyone's bucket list. Putting together this list felt near impossible as each waterfall has its own  unique features  and there's so many around the world, but here are some of the  top waterfalls  around the world.  PLITVICE LAKES NATIONAL PARK, CROTIA Plitvice Lakes National Park  is Crotia's most popular tourist attraction and I completely understand why. Unlike the other waterfalls featured, Plitvice is made up of sixteen  inter-connected crystalline lakes  where terrains cascades into each other via beautiful waterfalls. The  emerald and turquoise   have been compared to lakes in JuiZhaiGou Valley from  Nuggets & The Lakes . What I love about this destination is that the falls are not only popular during the summer, but during the winter as the lush green forests transforms into the most beautiful  winter...

Nugget & The Beaches

If I asked you to picture the perfect beach , most of you might paint a scenery of a strip of white soft sand dotted with lush palm trees, crystal clear blue waters with gently rolling waves, all framed by a beautiful landscape. These bucket list beaches offer something a little bit different. PINK SAND BEACH, HARBOUR ISLAND No soft white strip of sand here, but Pink Sand Beach of Harbour Island, Bahamas , is the place to go to for natural beauty of pink sands and calm blue waters which extends for 3 miles . The waters are ideal for swimming and relaxing as the harsh waves are blocked by the surrounding coral reefs . The sand itself consists of broken corals, shells, rocks and calcium carbonate but it's pink colour comes from shell colour of microscopic shelled animals . Although it isn't the only pink beach in the world, it is definitely one of the most beautiful , perfect location for a vacation. Click here for info on more pink beaches .

Nugget & The Caves

I never thought that I'd be interested in going into caves. I think batman scarred me growing up and made me think caves are just dark holes, infested with bats but I was so wrong. Here are some of the most amazing caves around the world, each carrying unique features. ICE CAVE, KAMCHATKA Does the pictures of this ice cave below remind anyone else of cotton candy or the passage to a fairytale world ? Yes, I'm sure it does. This magical cave is located in  Kamchatsky, Russia  where the entire landscape is constantly changing due to active  volcanoes  and  glaciers . The location is described as being alive and having  a beating heart .  This  ice jewel  was carved by a volcano-fed river which is sourced from a hot spring from the  Mutnovsky volcano  which flows through the glacier. Its cotton candy  colours  are a result of the  refraction of sunlight t streaming through the ice walls. Photo credit:...

Nugget & The Hot Springs

Geothermal hot springs can be found all over the world, but these are some which hold most of the Travel Nugget's interest.  Although some are lethal, the colours are surreal.  THE BLUE LAGOON This shade of blue is so pretty, I can't believe that it's the natural colour of this hot spring. Yes, blue is my favourite colour. The Blue Lagoon is Iceland's most popular feature and I just want to jump into it. Its spectacular shade of blue water comes from a composition of silica, algae and minerals which reflects in the sunlight. The blue lagoon drink was actually named after here. However, the water itself is actually milky white. The lagoon contains 9 million litres of water, renewing itself every 40 hours from beneath the floor. The deepest area in the spring is 1.6 meters with a temperature of 37 to 40 degrees Celsius; both perfect for Travel Nugget bathing. GRAND PRISMATIC SPRING, USA I've seen pictures of this spring before, but I didn't reali...

Nugget & The Seawater Swimming Pools

What's your biggest fear about bathing at the beach? Mine is being swept away by the waves...actually no, that's not true, #1 fear is definitely being bitten or eaten by a shark; I've seen Jaws. But being swept away is definitely fear #2 which is why I love these pools. Seawater swimming pools are rock pools formed by the forces of nature or even man made and are usually located near coastlines . GIOLA LAGOON, THASSOS This beautiful swimming pool was carved into the rocks of Thassos by nature to form the most exquisite seaside swimming pool. The turquoise pool is found near Astris on the island of  Thassos , Greece and is separated from the Aegean Sea by a strip of rock. Diving from the terraced shaped rocks is the only method to access the pool. Thee pool measures approximately 20 meters wide and the rocks are 8 meters from the water surface. According to legend, Giola was the eye of Zeus which he used to watch over. Photo credit: htt...
