I've spoken a lot about how the hardest part of the pandemic for me was losing a sense of joy. One of the things that brings me the most amount of joy is traveling, and obviously we haven't been doing much of that. I will cautiously say that things are finally feeling like they are…
Well we all know by know that we're in a pandemic. We can't go anywhere, there's not much to do, and if you do something (even if it's safe or to stimulate the economy or an approved activity) you'll probably still be chastised for it. I've seen a lot of people on my social media…
It’s been almost a full year since I last traveled, which is quite the culture shock to someone who was traveling out of country at least twice a year and supplementing that often with domestic travel. I used travel to escape. Escape the mundane 9-5. Escape the real world just for a little. It was…
To continue with our roadside attractions series, we took a trip up to New Hampshire's Seacoast to see some of the odd things we could drive up to and admire. The USS Albacore On a non-quarantine day, you can actually tour the inside of this submarine! We enjoyed it from the outside, the sub is…

Once again, we booked a trip through Groupon and this one was to Amsterdam! The Groupon was with the company we traveled to Iceland with, Gate 1, so we were pretty sure it would be a smooth sailing trip. And it was! Amsterdam is really a beautiful city. My favorite part was just walking around…
I honestly can't stand all of the articles I read that are like "You're in your 20's! Quit your job and open up an ice cream shack in the Bahamas!" or "Don't worry about getting a job - backpack through Europe and find yourself!" Come on, I live with my parents and barely saved any…
Wow, I love Salem, Massachusetts. I don't know why it's never made it onto my fall bucket lists before, but this place just oozes all things spooky. I don't know what I believe when it comes to magic. I've never had tarot cards read or met with a medium, mostly because I'm not sure it's…
I kicked off September with a long weekend trip to Chattanooga, TN! We took advantage of some mileage we've accrued and a family member's summer house for this trip. Places we went: Ruby Falls Ruby Falls is a really cool underground waterfall. You walk through a cave to get to it, about a half mile…
