Our first time in India was one of the most hectic, wonderful, and awe-inspiring experiences. We caught the sunrise from the top of Delhi’s old spice market; experienced Holi festival in the birthplace of Hindu god Lord Krishna; managed to be the first ones to enter the gates of the Taj Mahal at 5am; narrowly missed cows, monkeys and…
Read the PostEarlier this year, my good friend Barbie and I were discussing our upcoming travels plans and Vietnam came up. Her family and a few friends had gone recently and talked it up, and now it was at the top of her list. Vietnam isn’t the first country that comes to mind for a ‘girls trip’, but I agreed that we…
Read the PostTrue to the way we travel, I really wanted our first trip to India to be a balance of must-see sights and unique experiences. That’s why when I stumbled upon a safari property in India’s Bandhavgarh’s National Park – Samode Safari Lodge – I immediately wanted to tack it on the end of our journey. At first, I wasn’t sure…
Read the PostAt the start of 2019, Jacob and I made a list of the destinations we want to visit this year. India made the top, as we’ve been intrigued to go for the longest.

Though 2018 flew by, I can’t help but acknowledge how much we have done this year. I took on travel blogging as my full-time job at the…
Read the PostSintra is an easy day trip from Lisbon and neighboring towns like Cascais. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage site, filled with castles, palaces, and beautiful views of the surrounding area. I’ve visited the region twice now and still have the urge to go back and explore. If you’re planning a trip to Portugal, visiting Sintra is a must! Here’s everything…
Read the PostIt’s been awhile since I’ve set foot somewhere that completely takes my breath away. Don’t get me wrong, Jacob and I have gone to some incredible places these past few months (the Dead Sea, Lech and Lapland, to name a few). But there’s something about the unspoiled white sand beaches and tropical landscapes of the Cook Islands that is completely…
Read the PostI’ve been to Portugal a couple times before, but I’ve only passed through Lisbon. So, I was thrilled last month when one of my best friends from California invited me to join her for a girl’s trip to the city!
