Highlights from Whistler, British Columbia

It has been *a time* down here in Tampa Bay! It’s hard to believe that not one, but two hurricanes have interrupted our lives (and our power) since I was in Whistler for a work conference. It was a quick trip, especially for two full days' worth of travel, but I still made the most of it! Here are the highlights...

Spotlight: Swiss Museum of Transport

One of my coworkers had just returned from Switzerland when we were preparing to leave last month. She told me that we absolutely could not miss the Swiss Museum of Transport, that it had been a highlight of their trip. As a mom of a vehicle-loving kiddo, I was immediately onboard.

5 Days in Lindau, Germany

We got back home late on Wednesday, and many loads of laundry later, I think we’re back to our usual routines - aside from the holiday weekend, anyway! As I catch up with folks, I continue to tell them how delightful Lindau was, a true surprise and delight for our family. There were a few places we’d considered visiting when we booked our tickets to Zurich earlier this year. We strongly considered Italy, but something about this lakeside town spoke to us. Lindau was the perfect spot to spend some of our summer vacation. Here’s how we spent our five days there...

Day Trip to Bregenz, Austria

Hello from Zurich! We have been having the loveliest time in both Germany and Switzerland, but one of the highlights of this vacation has definitely been the day trip we made to Bregenz, Austria. We had planned to do this all along, since Bregenz is very close to Lindau, Germany, where we stayed. It gave us the chance to cross another country off our visit list, so we figured, why not?

NYC Food Tour – Summer 2024

Once again, I spent the end of July in New York City for work. As soon as I locked in my travel, I knew I would be preparing for some delicious meals - and the city did not disappoint. In the two days that I was there, I got to indulge in some truly delectable dishes. These include…

How Much Did I Spend on My July Switzerland Trip?

I recently just got back from 10 days across Switzerland, and my gosh was it magical! This was my first European summer and the first time I have crossed the Atlantic since 2017! And let me tell you the trip did not disappoint. But everyone knows Europe is expensive, and even more expensive in the middle of summer. And ofcourse the stereotype that comes with Switzerland is that its EXPESNIVE!

3 Tampa Date Night Restaurants

July is off to a strong start, I’ll tell you what! I have been fortunate enough to have had some fantastic nights out already this month at some great Tampa restaurants. If you’re looking for a date night spot in the area, look no further - all of these places have a great selection of dishes with terrific service. Bonus: each night was $160 (or less) for two, including drinks and tip.
