I've traveled to a lot of cool places. I made memories there, met people, had a great time with great people, experienced and learned new things. And I miss it. I miss it almost like it was a person who made an impact on my life and then vanished. But we can't live in the…
Since it's no time to travel right now, I thought I'd repost a blog about traveling! I went to Iceland in 2017, here's the story. About 6 months before the trip I saw this AMAZING Groupon for a cheap trip including a flight, hotel, and tour in Iceland. I had been on about 3 dates…
Okay, winter has not been as bad as I thought it would be. We've already made it to February and I think the Groundhog said spring is coming soon so I can't complain too much. Here in New England, it will probably be cold until May but I'm still holding on to the fact that…
Do I have a list of places I want to see in the world? Yes. Do I follow it? Not really. I feel like most travelers have this grand list and when they're done in one spot they start planning a trip to the next spot on the list. But we've never really traveled like…

Egypt is unlike any place I’ve been before. Flying in, you can immediately see how much of a city it really is as it is packed with stone apartment buildings. We had to catch on to the culture pretty quick here because there’s a lot to learn and a lot to be weary of. I…
Traveling gives me a lot of anxiety. I'm normally a hot mess day of, even though I've done so much planning and coordinating to avoid any mishaps. I prepare for the worst as best as I can. I have back up plans and we get to the airport extra early. I do a lot of…
I am on a traveling hiatus, only partly by choice. Life is really busy right now and there are so many other things that require money, time, and attention. On the one hand, my break from traveling has allowed me to see my friends more. I've gotten more done around the house and in my…
I'm pretty much always convinced something is going to go wrong when I travel. I get to the airport early, print out all my receipts, and check my luggage about 50 times to make sure I have everything. Yet, I always get nervous. Even though nothing has ever drastically gone wrong, I always think that…
1. Don't forget a back up plan Even trips where you're winging it require some kind of plan. You never know when the bus you bought tickets for will get delayed and leave you with no ride to the airport (cough, cough, Greyhound). 2. Don't overpack Carry ons are really all you need. I usually…
