Anticipation was high as we drove the isolated back roads through Idaho to Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve. Partly because we had been driving for eight hours from Montana. Mostly because we were just excited to see the Park. Craters unique campground lies in the middle of a lava field and were […]
Unique St. Louis Experiences
One of my favorite things to do when visiting a new city, is look for things that make it unique. Commonly, the Gateway Arch or the Mississippi River come to mind when someone mentions St. Louis. However, there is so much more to this beautiful and friendly city. From restaurants that have been around for […]
How Much Money Do You Need For Iceland
Iceland has been at the top of my bucketlist for a while now. Five years ago, before it got so popular, I suggested to my family that we should go to mark a special occasion. They just laughed. No one is laughing about Iceland now. It’s a hugely popular destinations as you probably know. Fueled […]
Making a Stop in Macon, Georgia
If you live in the eastern Unites States and have ever driven through Georgia or on south to Florida, there’s a good chance you found yourself on Interstate 75, passing near Macon.

My Maine Squeeze
Foggy, moody and mysterious. Wild and tame. Maine is simply incredible. I had imagined it in my mind, but nothing prepared me for the sheer beauty of it. Road tripping north, up the coast from Boston, I had just a few days to discover pieces of it. I can’t wait to go back. Here’s a […]
What’s the Best Area to Stay in Puerto Vallarta
It might sound strange but it seems the more hotels and resorts a destination offers, the harder it can be deciding where to stay. If you have ever thought about visiting Puerto Vallarta and researched hotels, you may have noticed that there are some very distinctive neighborhoods full of resorts, hotels and condominiums. So which one is […]
Old School Mexico City
I fell in love with Mexico City when I was fifteen. It was a high school Spanish class trip. Till this day I still can’t believe my parents allowed me to go. I didn’t know much Spanish. It wasn’t even my high school. Someone dropped out last minute and somehow, since I had a friend […]
48 Hours in Sayulita, Mexico
I have to admit I was hesitant to visit Sayulita. It seems every week I see someone posing with brightly colored pom poms or some other prop that screams I’m in Sayulita. But on a recent trip to Puerta Vallarta, the proximity made going there a no brainer. What I found was a total surprise. […]
