How to Use Google Flights’ Explore Tool
The way everyone uses Google Flights is not the way I make the most of it. I have talked about the $375 roundtrip tickets that Tyler and I booked to Copenhagen, a place we had not previously considered going and where we had one of the best dining experiences ever, but we didn’t just randomly search “Copenhagen” with some dates and hope for the best; we used the Google Flights' Explore tool.
Visiting Our Nation’s Capital: Washington, DC
DC is a great place to visit for a long weekend and even a great family friendly trip. One of my favorite parts about DC is how much there is to do for FREE! From museums to National Monuments there is plenty to see and do on a budget.
36 Hours in San Francisco, California
Last August, I headed out west for an important work meeting, which gave me approximately 36 hours in San Francisco, California. I never miss an opportunity to squeeze some “vacation” out of work travel - also known as a “bleisure” trip - so I, along with two of my lovely coworkers, made the most of our day and a half in the city. If you’re short on time in San Fran, these are your must-dos and must-eats!
COVID Travel Update: Where Can Americans Travel Internationally?
It’s been about 5 months since we have been living in this new state of “normal” here in the US. If you are anything like us here at B!tches Be Tripping, you are dreaming of the next time you get to travel internationally. While we have all tried to make the best of this summer, in terms of traveling, we have discovered the simplicity of a stay-cation, taken a road trip when we are clearly air travelers, and most importantly stayed optimistic in planning future trips.
Spotlight: Grady Goat Yoga
There are many wonderful day trips from Tampa, but I have to say the GOAT is a trip to Grady Goat Farm for some Grady Goat Yoga. ;) Located about 25 minutes from downtown Tampa, this is a must-do activity for anyone who even remotely likes yoga or baby animals.
Top 10 Must-Dos in Edinburgh
Scotland had always been one of my top bucket list destinations because my dad actually spent a few years of his childhood in Scotland while my grandfather worked on submarines for the US Navy. Hearing all the stories about fish and chip at the dock and the beautiful landscape of the highlands, I knew this had to be a place I someday explored. If Edinburgh is a city on your bucket list, here are my top 10 must-dos.
How to Travel Safely in an Unsafe Place
We got a Scott’s Cheap Flights alert that tickets to Fortaleza out of Orlando were super cheap, and before jumping on the deal, we did some research. Did you know that Fortaleza is consistently ranked one of the most dangerous cities in the world? Did we really want to vacation in a place like that?
A Deal Out of This Universe
Would you go to a theme park during a pandemic? What if I told you that you only had to pay for one day and could come back the rest of the year… for FREE; Would that change your mind?
That Time When… We Got Free FC Barcelona Tickets
I came into the downtown Tampa office on a seemingly normal Wednesday morning and found that our office Slack channel was blowing up because, since Rakuten is currently an FCB sponsor, we had some tickets up for grabs for the game. I quickly texted my husband Tyler to see if he wanted to go - after all, our club seats would include dinner and drinks, but it did mean leaving work early and driving to Miami in just a few hours.
