The Best Travel Apps for 2023
Hello! 2022 marked the definitive return of travel following the hiatus caused by the pandemic, and with this return comes something we travelers love: apps and websites to plan and enjoy our trips!The idea behind this post is to provide a brief overview of the apps that help us have a more stress-free trip and make the most of it.

Book Review: *African Chronicles* by Fernando Duclos
Hi! We really miss traveling, don't we? I can’t wait to experience that wonderful excitement of searching for tickets, checking layovers, comparing prices, and that delightful thrill when you book them! I can’t wait to create a Google Drive spreadsheet and start organizing hotels, flights, and trains (yes, I love making spreadsheets)!

Flight Report: Montevideo - Porto Alegre
For work, I'm traveling to Porto Alegre this week, which gives me the chance to write the blog's first flight report :)I flew on Azul flight AD8741, an Embraer ERJ-195 with registration number PR-AYI, which, according to Airfeets.Net, is 8.7 years old:I’ve taken this flight several times, and it really is a very convenient option for traveling to Porto Alegre, since the other options (Gol or LATAM) involve a layover (at GRU or GIG). The flight departs at 3:00 p.m., so by 12:10 p.m. I’m already at
