Update: Planning Our 2022 Anniversary Trip to Toronto, Canada
I wrote about planning our 2022 anniversary trip earlier this year - only then, we were going to Austin. Well friends, we changed our minds. Rather than road tripping through the south, like we did for our 2020 anniversary trip, we’re flying north! Since we hadn’t booked anything yet, it was easy for us to pivot. However, now tickets have been booked, reservations have been made, and we’re committed to Toronto. Here's what we have planned...
My TSA Pre-Check Experience
TSA Pre-Check is something I have considered investing in for a long time. Last time I was considering pulling the trigger was in 2020 when I had planned to take a trip every month for 12 months straight. Unfortunately you know how 2020 turned out.
Highlights from Boston, Massachusetts
Last week, I spent about 48 hours in the Boston area for an on-site client meeting. Most of that was, you know, spent working, but I still managed to turn it into a “bleisure” trip, capitalizing on some time I had the first night before meetings, as well as on the last night before I flew out. While it was no work trip to Las Vegas, I’m happy with what I fit into my time in Boston...
Guest Post: Honeymooning in Costa Rica
Hi! I’m Lacy, Megan’s longtime best friend. We love planning, going on, and reminiscing on girls’ trips together. I got married in January 2022 and went on our honeymoon to Costa Rica right after. I was so excited when Megan asked me to share because we had the BEST trip!
Is Sweetfields Farm Open?
Sara and I made our semiannual visit to Sweetfields Farm in Brooksville, Florida, yesterday. Since I was just there, I can assure you that they are definitely open! Here’s what else you need to know...
April 2022 Highlights from Tampa Bay
Since getting back from our family vacation to Ireland, I’ve been trying to do some more local exploration. Here are some recent highlights from around Tampa Bay...

Highlights from New York City
I used to have an annual conference in NYC, and that didn’t include the multiple times a year I was going to visit clients. I figured out early on how to turn these trips into “bleisure” ones, and I had various explorations with coworkers and friends as we discovered all the city had to offer. These are some of the highlights...
A Miami Hidden Gem
Located in the beautiful neighborhood of Coral Gables found just south of downtown Miami is a unique public pool that is unlike anywhere you’d find in the country. The Venetian Pool is very reminiscent of old world Europe and is enjoyed by hundreds of thousand each and every year.
How Much Does a Family Trip to Ireland Cost?
The credit card charges are in! Our costs were spaced out over the last year, but we kept track of them in our travel folder; with the last expenses coming through, I can confirm our 9-day family trip to Ireland cost us $3,700. Not quite as good as our trip to Copenhagen and Hamburg, where we spent under $3k for nine days abroad, but since we have another person traveling with us now, we feel pretty good about it! This is how the costs broke out for the three of us...
