Memorial Hospital in Istanbul is world class, beautiful, and the experience was incredible. The staff, the medical professionals, down to having our own personal assistant and translator was incredible. 

My particular package would’ve been $5,500 and was the most expensive, in depth option. My boyfriend got a package that was closer to $1,500 but still quite in depth.

One of the quirkiest landmarks in Tbilisi is the p One of the quirkiest landmarks in Tbilisi is the puppet theater clock tower. It’s not particularly historic but the whimsical creation was built by Georgian director, screenwriter, and artist, Rezo Gabriadze around 2010 as an addition to the theater. You can watch puppet shows twice per day as well.

On the hour, the square becomes quiet as visitors gather to watch the little angel come out and strike the bell then retreat back into her wonky tower. It’s a little anticlimactic but a right of passage in Tbilisi. 

Don’t miss the supposed smallest clock in the world at eye level hidden inside the tower!

👉🏼 Save for your trip to the beautiful country of Georgia!

This 19th century city is the second largest city This 19th century city is the second largest city in the country and is known for being the cultural capital of Armenia. It was devastated by an earthquake in 1988, killing thousands and destroying most of the city. They are still in the process of rebuilding.

Gyumri, Armenia is a cultural hub for the arts, a major industrial center, and a symbol of resilience. The unique black architecture features local volcanic stone abundant in the region making the city look gothic.

At one point Gyumri was the largest city in Armenia until the capital shifted to Yerevan. 

It’s a really unique small city worth a visit. A walking tour is a must to learn about the history. There are lots of good restaurants in the city to try traditional Armenian foods and more!

📍Villa Kars or Hotel Sesil 
📍Vardanants Square 
📍Cathedral of the Holy Mother of God 
📍St. All Saviors 
📍Abovyan St
📍Herbs & Honey teashop & restaurant
📍Merhatsy Restaurant

➡️ Save if you’re considering a visit to this region!

What do you think? Is this more or less than you w What do you think? Is this more or less than you would’ve expected? Cyprus was more expensive than I expected, if I’m being honest. And I also didn’t like it as much as I thought I would 🙈 I’m sure I missed some highlights but from the numerous areas we visited, I just like a lot of other places much better. But I did like the city of Larnaca and loved the affordable apartment we booked.

👉🏼 Follow @jessica_traveler and comment LARNACA for a link to the apartment we booked right in the heart of the city in the best location.
