Last Updated June 2026 This was my second time in Prague, but it may as well have been my first. My first visit was eight years ago with Jacob, and Prague was our first stop on a multi-city trip to Europe. I remember it as a romantic city, though this time I traveled with a close friend of mine on…
Read the PostIndia has been at the top of our list forever. Last year Jacob was invited on a fairly last minute work trip that happened to fall over Holi Festival in India. I was a bit more apprehensive of going last minute as I knew it would be tough to navigate (I’m always the planner when it comes to our travels!)….
Read the PostGreetings from Prague! On my last Q&A I answered your questions about ways to monetize a blog, choosing between trendy versus lesser-known destinations, and what to pack for winter in Europe. You can read Q&A Volume 2 here, and Q&A Volume 1 here if you missed our first post of the series. Every few weeks I invite you to submit questions…
Read the PostGrowing up in California I never expected to love winter as much as I do now. I’ve always enjoyed the snow, but I had never sought it out until we moved to Amsterdam. Now when we plan our yearly travels I always have at least one winter destination in mind. I love the way snow transforms a city or makes…

Read the PostVisiting ancient temples in Siem Reap truly feels like stepping into another world. Angkor Wat is the largest religious monument in the world, and the most ancient. It’s an incredible, sprawling complex of temples located in Cambodia, dating back to the 12th century (aptly named Angkor Wat, “City of Temples” in Khmer). Though well preserved, it’s not uncommon to be…
Read the PostThe end of the year snuck up on me more than I’d like to admit. I typically use the holiday season to reflect on the past year, get inspired for what’s to come, and set personal goals. Instead, these past couple weeks I set aside my growing to-do list and obligations and opted to relax (as well as fight off…
Read the PostThere’s something so satisfying about recommending a favorite restaurant to someone and hearing about their positive experience afterward. We often get asked by friends and family visiting Amsterdam for our favorite restaurants in the city, and have always pointed them to our Amsterdam Travel Guide. This time, we decided this topic deserved it’s own post. So, we’ve compiled our favorite…
Read the PostVisiting European towns around Christmas time is quickly becoming one of my favorite types of trips. I love the atmosphere of the twinkle lights, the smell of mulled wine and cinnamon, and the feeling of warming up by a fire after an evening wandering the markets. In the past few years, Jacob and I have visited some of Europe’s Best…
