4 Days in Edinburgh, Scotland
Two years ago today, I was traveling with Tyler and his parents to Edinburgh. We were stoked to be spending our holidays in Scotland, after spending the Christmas before in Belgium. We arrived at Gatwick early in the morning on December 22 and had brunch at Giraffe before getting on the train to Edinburgh…
The Christmas Vacation Ordeal
This Christmas I am more than excited than many other years because we are going on a trip to celebrate the Holidays. I can only remember one other time in my life that we traveled during the holiday season, so this is definitely a special occasion.
Highlights from Brussels, Belgium
In 2018, after poking around in Google Flights’ Explore Tool, I found a great deal on flights that would have us spending Christmas in Brussels. It worked out great because we already had the time off from work, and once our parents accepted that we were not coming home for the holidays, we could make our way to Belgium stress-free. These were the best parts...
The Time I Took A Winter Trip to DC
A few years back, my brother and I took a sibling trip to our Nation’s Capital, Washington, DC. We specifically wanted to go in December to enjoy all of the holiday décor as well as the cold weather. However we did not expect rain, sleet and snow.
Spotlight: Enchant Christmas
This weekend, Megan and I went to Sonder Social Club, which you may recognize from her roundup of Tampa Bay Christmas bars, and it got me thinking - what else can I do to get into the holiday spirit? The answer: Enchant Christmas.
The Best Thing About Christmas Markets
Since I’ve opted not to go home for the holidays a couple times, instead taking advantage of cheap flights we found to Belgium and Scotland, I’ve gotten to see some of the wonders of Europe during Christmastime. My favorite part: the Christmas markets. And the best part of those is...

While I may not be taking a winter wonderland vacation this year, I can continue to grow my bucket list just like you all should as well! If you are looking for inspiration, I’ll give you a peek into my winter travel bucket list.
Dreaming of Our Next Vacation
Last weekend, Tyler turned to me and said, "We need a vacation." I feel that. It's been hard to accept that travel isn't as easy as it used to be for us, for several reasons. But that doesn't mean it can't be done - it just means we need to adapt it for our current phase of life. You know, the one where we're raising a kid and trying to get through a global pandemic. 😅

4 Days in Boulder, Colorado
Two years ago, our Iceland crew reunited in Boulder, Colorado, for the holiday weekend. We got in late at night, but we had four full days ahead of us to explore. While Colorado is definitely a great 4th of July destination, I’d argue it’s an even better one during the fall and winter. Here’s what we did...
