I’ve lost over $1000 from Qatar Airways misleading “one time free flight change” statement. Where’s the justice? Along with so many QA nightmares I’ve read about, I’m dealing with a situation with Qatar airways that lets me feel cheated. Here’s what happens, when you book an economy flight online, the details show that you’re allowed one free flight change. QA gets away with it because technically you are not charged for any flight change fees, but to get…

CitizenM hotels: a headsup The hotels do not make clear that when you sign up for mycitizenM, you are signing up for a year. And you get charged every month. I do not recall seeing that the membership had a mandatory one-year ‘membership,’ so they make a lot of money on what seems to me a slightly deceptive practice. So maybe this post will save someone else! Other than t…

Has anyone ever won a chargeback against Sonder? I recently booked a Sonder studio and arrived to find that the flat smelled like someone had been cooking lots of meat in there. The smell got worse as I settled in, and I asked Sonder to move me to another unit. But the building was full, and my only option was to accept a relocation to another Sonder building on the other side of the city. Thi…

Does this itinerary seem doable/enjoyable within the timeframe I’ve planned? The reason I wanna start with South Korea, Japan and China is because I will be on my annual leave, after that I will be working remotely from 5/6 pm. So, I will stay for longer (1 month or 2) in the same country and explore during the day. I am not sure dec-feb work for these places though. I have never been to Asia before and I am travelling s…

A goal in my life is to put her in every storybook moment she’s ever dreamed of & horseback riding on the beach is at the top of that list. I’d love…

Leaving Sri Lanka with a bitter note : Avoid the gemstone scam! I visited Sri Lanka last week, and was all set to finish the beautiful trip on a peaceful note, through a walk in Colombo city. Until then, I’ve had nothing to complain about. People are so so friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, I was struck by an awful tourist scam.

We’ll be on J1 Work and Travel visas, giving us three months to work and a month to travel around.
