Travel, Stories, Lists, Doodles
When I was younger and backpacking around S.E. Asia, I didn't care at all what I wore, often opting for some pretty heinous sweatpants, crummy tennis shoes, and a Target hoodie, but as I've gotten older, I realized that I didn't want to look back at my travel photos and wonder who the bridge troll...

My husband and I are not really wine drinkers, but we do enjoy taking day trips to wine country to visit some of the beautiful wineries and sample the great food that the area has to offer. Here are some of our favorites spots... Castello Di Amorosa When we go to Napa, we usually go... Continue Reading →
If you're looking for a relaxing vacation, look no further than the Lanikai Beach area of Oahu. Usually when we travel, I tend to pack a ton of activities into each day, since I want to make the most out of each chance to travel we get. But traveling to Hawaii is a great chance...

Growing up in Northern California, I've been lucky enough to take a few trips to Muir Woods. I remember the way the air smells when you step out of the car and are surrounded by these towering giants. Muir Woods is great because it's quite accessible, even for people with disabilities or children in small... Continue Reading →

The city is extremely walkable and a great gateway to the fjords, if you're looking to explore some of Norway's unparalleled natural beauty. Where to Stay We stayed at the Clarion...

Notre Dame Start the day at the Notre Dame. To be honest, it is not one of my favorites, but it’s one of those must see at least once locations. The line is long but moves quickly. Ogle the gothic architecture, giant circular stained glass windows, and the glow of the candle light. Saint Chapelle... Continue Reading →
The first time I went to Paris around 10 years ago, I didn't get a chance to visit the gilded gold and mirrored halls of Versailles, so when we returned this year, I made it a priority to go. Versailles is definitely not for the faint of heart. What's tricky about Versailles is that everyone's... Continue Reading →
Bruges, Belgium was one of my favorite cities we visited. I fell in love with the medieval architecture, rambling cobblestone streets, chocolate shops, and walkability. Bruges is essentially built in the shape of a circle (since back in the day it was a walled city surrounded by gates and moats). And you can walk from... Continue Reading →
