At 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. After researching the best month to visit based on weather, we decided on either March or November. The middle of the year sees much more extreme temperatures…

There is something so special about experiencing a destination so beautiful with so little crowds.

Read the PostEver wonder what full time travel looks like? This past summer, Jacob and I had the idea to create a video that would highlight our favorite moments from the past two and a half years of non-stop traveling. I cannot believe how long I’ve kept this video a secret! We’ve been working on this video for so long — sourcing…
Read the PostIt’s that time of year again. Normally the end of the year sneaks up on me, and I start reviewing everything I still want to get done. This year feels a bit different.

This Kauai travel guide has a little bit of something…

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).

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! Lisbon is just a short flight away from Amsterdam, so I hopped on the plane for a long weekend of…
