Ever since I had decided I would go to Europe, people began asking me if I would make it to Tuscany. It seemed like everyone I talked to raved about this region, calling it their favorite in all of Italy, even random strangers I talked to while in a queue in Hong Kong. I pulled out […]
This week we would like to introduce Natasha Amar of The Boho Chica. Natasha is a traveler based in Dubai and likes to experience the world in cultures, cuisines and hiking trails. She writes about the people, places and things that shock, inspire and amaze her on her travels. She hopes her writing inspires people to venture out of their […]
This week we would like to introduce Sara of Simply Sara Travel. Sara traded her New Jersey bagels for French baguettes when she moved to Paris two years ago. Since the big move she’s learned a bit of French, has eaten more cheese in two years than the previous 25, and can now tie a scarf in 10 different […]
I could write a book on the mistakes I made traveling around Europe. From only spending one night in London to spending too much time in Vienna… and I haven’t even revealed what my biggest mistake was yet! It seems like the cities I thought I wouldn’t like, or was told I wouldn’t like, were the cities […]
Our first few hours in the Rome were pretty telling about what the rest of our time there would be like. Arriving into Termini right on schedule, we had just over an hour to drop off our bags and get ready to eat our hearts out on an Italian food tour that I had been looking […]
The Vatican sees over 25,000 people daily, making it the second most-visited attraction in Rome. That’s… A LOT of people. So clearly, whether you’re religious or not, when in Rome– a visit to the Vatican is a must! Even with only one night in Rome, I knew a visit to St. Peter’s Basilica and the extraordinary Sistine Chapel had […]
Every Friday I’ll be sharing a photo from someplace in my travels. This week’s photo is of the canals of Venice. From silhouetted churches to pink skies in Paris, we had plenty of memorable sunsets throughout our 5-week trip in Europe. However, I’m not sure any rivaled those of Venice. Night after night we were rewarded with […]
It’s hard to find the perfect purse. I know Johnny would disagree seeing as he could easily find me 50 different purses, all in my closet. But the only reason I have so many is because none of them turn out to be that one perfect bag! I’m sure all you ladies can relate. Add travel into the […]
GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED! Hopefully by now everyone has spent the day getting their fill of Turkey and stuffing! I actually don’t like Thanksgiving foods, I know, how un-American, but I’ve still been enjoying my first holiday at home in over two years nonetheless! As the holiday winds down, the frenzy of Black Friday is upon us, […]
Next to London, Venice was another city that we felt money constantly draining from our wallets. With no convenient city passes or hop-on hop-off buses to help save us some cash, it came down to good ole’ fashioned budgeting. To allow for a bit of splurging, we chose to stay at a hostel further out instead of an overpriced […]
