New! Color & Travels Collection

Any other sentimental travelers out there?! As much as I would love to take home a piece of every place I visit, being a nomad I cannot handle all the souvenirs, plus I believe in slow travel, slow consumption.

In an effort to keep track of the epic places and take the memories with me, I have started this Color & Track Travels Collection! Be creative and use each piece with purpose….Use permanent markers to color & track the countries you’ve visited!

About the blog

About the blog

From my passion for traveling, photography, and sharing experiences, Inhale Explore was born on Instagram. I started to write short stories that would fit the caption space and were short enough to make people breathe again and wander some!

A narrative with original photographs to awake senses — filled with drama, cultural shocks, hilarious “I can’t-believe this happened to me” (a lot of these) as well as serendipity, food, joy and transcendence.

Follow along, I have so much to tell you…INHALE, EXPLORE!

It’s not so much an addiction or a whim to travel.
As it is the distance and the unknown that makes it a commitment to transformation that I enjoy.

Europe

Portugal, you got me. |Portugal me atrapaste.

That feeling of life rubbing her hands… my plan was to visit Portugal and stay a couple of months. But for some reason, I ended up visiting 6 other countries; I even jumped to West Asia (Dubai) and went back to Europe (?) That’s right, I don’t stick to the plans lately. I was not like that, in fact, I was a corporate brain that breathed retro-planning charts (so useless) and seasons; always thinking 6 months in advance, a duly planned time.But now, 2 years into traveling I adapted. I …

The Grand Mosque | La Gran Mezquita

This mosque is massive and really does make you feel small and humbled, perhaps is the intention? Prior to the tour, I was already told of the Grand Mosque’s dress code. I came prepared, but my awesome guide also brought me an “abaya”, a traditional garment for me to wear! Women need to cover their hair all the time, so I was really conscious about the wind blowing my scarf out of place. I tried my best, but still one of the guards told the guide to tell me (even though …

My Luck! | Mi Suerte!

If I were the same choosing boyfriends as I choose random photographers! ⠀⠀⠀It was my mission to fit the world’s tallest building and me in one frame. I tried several times with no luck. I was sweating, upset and ready to go when I saw this guy equally frustrated in the other side of the street. I approched him and offered to help. I took angle shots, portrait mode, light – you know, I was giving it all!I showed him the pictures and with no filter he said: “Ugh, I …

A Trio? | Un Trio?

A trio?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀I connected with Prague quite fast, perhaps because for most of my stay it was only her and me. I was craving some space. I know, funny! Most people think travel solo is a lonely journey but is the total opposite. I’m not sure if it’s an energy or an attitude but, it happens naturally. So that even making the effort, Prague was not the exception.⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀By the 3rd night while charging my phone, an italian girl (Vale) asked me about the coffee machine and one latte later, …

Cologne, Germany⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀Which one are you the believer or the facts-will- tell kind of person?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀This is the iconic view of Cologne with its Hohenzollern bridge and the stunning 600 yrs old cathedral.The colorful strip of colors on the bridge are tens of thousands of love locks. I realize these kinds of things are pretty cheesy — but the hundreds of colors, the inscriptions and engravings made it more interesting than it may initially seem and really photogenic. I don’t know but judging by the amount of locks that I saw, there …
