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 Kaleidoscopic Mountains

Who ever thought mountains can be so pretty. These look more like paintings or something to eat and I'd love to see them one day. ZHANGYE DANXIA LANDFORM, CHINA This amazing land form looks like a layered rainbow cake that's ready to get some icing and be eaten, with some vanilla ice cream, and hot fudge sauce and pecans and...I'm getting carried away. but just look at those colours! This colourful wonder gets it vibrant hues from minerals and primarily made of sandstones and siltstone . T he rainbow mountains were formed over 24 million years ago and some rise to hundreds of meters tall. It's so pretty.

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 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...

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.
