Salt Lake City Must-Do: Dreamscapes

Apr 19, 2021
Katie
We fit a lot of great times into this long weekend trip, but the best part was definitely Dreamscapes. Known as “Salt Lake City’s Immersive Art Experience,” it's a museum that features upcycled art created by local artists. Sara had discovered it in her research, and we knew we had to go. Laid out like a maze, the museum offers all sorts of funky vibes and cool experiences along the way!

That Time When… I Fell on a Cactus

We had to hustle over to Brown's Mountain after her shift to make sure we had time to get up to the top and back before sunset. Our timing was slightly off, so it was darker than we would have liked as we made our way back down the mountain. This, combined with my knack for falling, had unfortunate results.

One place that has me dreaming up new travel itineraries? Iceland. Before planning a trip to Iceland, here’s what you need to know.

As I’ve mentioned previously, I definitely make an effort to eat locally when I travel. For my recent visits to Savannah, Georgia, Charleston, South Carolina and Asheville, North Carolina, I did some extensive research to find great local restaurants. So this year, I applied that same goal to eating at home. Since Tampa is so close, I also included it in my research! These are the top 10 Tampa-local restaurants that I really enjoyed in the last year or so.

Girls’ Trip: 6 Days, 3 Countries

When my sister was graduating from college in 2018, I wanted to get her a really great gift. I ran a few ideas by my mom, like buying her graduation photos, but I found the ultimate gift in a Scott’s Cheap Flights email - cheap flights to London. At $431 a piece, I was able to not only purchase a ticket for my sister, but one for my mom and myself as well. We were going on a girls’ trip!

Is Disneyland Paris Worth It?

Mar 1, 2021
Katie
When we arrived in Paris, France and got our schedules, I learned that we had one free weekend in the city. How would I spend it? I hoped in Disneyland Paris. I had gone to Disney World in Orlando more times than I could count growing up, but this would be my first time in a new Disney park. Would it be worth it? After talking with my roommate Megan, I found some other girls who were also planning on going, and they were happy for me to join their group. I took some of the fun money my grandma had given me to book my ticket, convinced the hotel concierge to print it - I’m much better now about advanced planning and printing - and headed to the park that first weekend.

Since quarantine started, I’ve actively tried to eat locally at home. Yes, it’s easier to just order Domino’s than actually evaluate restaurants, but not only does eating locally often yield better food - you also get to support a small business. So where should you eat in St. Petersburg, Florida? These are the top 10 local restaurants that I enjoyed in the last year.
