You don’t have to be a nature person to appreciate landscapes. Oftentimes the best trips strike a balance between city life and the outdoors. Some destinations allow for this better than others, but I’ve found it’s always possible to incorporate nature travel when in the trip planning process. And while we’re all staying home for the foreseeable future, many of…
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 PostI last left off on day 5 of our adventure with Polarquest, navigating ice floats to see an incredible glacier front called Bråsvellbreen. This trip was otherworldly and our experiences varied so much day by day. I have so many photos to share that I had to make this a two part blog post. Here is part 1 of our…
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 PostOne of my favorite moments of any trip is the excitement of seeing a new destination for the first time. Lofoten, Norway was love at first sight. Even from our plane window, I could spot the quaint Norwegian cottages along the fjords and mountain ranges that make Lofoten so beautiful. We planned this trip mid-August, allotting five days in Lofoten…
Read the PostI recently returned from a trip to Stockholm, Sweden and the Norwegian fjords. It was my first time visiting Stockholm, which I’ve been eager to explore since Jacob and I road tripped West Sweden and Gothenburg two summers back. This recent trip was an all girls trip, organized by Small Luxury Hotels in partnership with Norwegian Air. I’ve loved Small…
Read the PostI recently made a goal for myself to explore more of the U.S. this year. Though I grew up on the west coast of California, most of the traveling I did at a young age was to Europe (both my parents are first-generation European, so most of our family is abroad). So, when the team at Experience Kissimmee invited us…
Read the PostWe recently returned from the trip of a lifetime: circumnavigating the arctic island of Spitsbergen in Svalbard, Norway. Svalbard is a Norwegian archipelago of islands located north of the mainland, a 2 hour flight from Tromso. Together we embarked on a 10-day excursion on the M/S quest ship with Polarquest (Expedition Svalbard). Our goal was to experience the beautiful and…
Read the PostThree years ago we set off on the Europe road trip that changed everything. We left home, started an Instagram to share photos with friends and family, and took off hit some undiscovered spots in Europe alongside a few favorites we’d made it to in the past. At the time, we had no idea this was the start to an…
