After spending time on the French Riviera, we made our way north to the Provence region of France to experience the lavender fields in full bloom. Typically, the perfect time to visit and see lavender is mid-July. Our days were long, with the sun rising early in the morning and setting around 10pm each night. It’s hot this time of…
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 PostSummer is right around the corner and it seems the Greek Islands are on everyone’s radar!

Milos has a port that connects directly from Athens so it’s the perfect…

From the crystal clear turquoise water of Aitutaki to the tropical jungles of Rarotonga, a getaway in the Cook Islands is what a tropical vacation should feel like. The locals…
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. 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…
