A Weekend on Amelia Island

Amelia Island is located about 45 minutes north of Jacksonville, Florida, and it's the perfect secluded beach town. While Amelia Island is home to a few upscale hotels, the island is mostly residential and still has a lot of untouched natural Florida beauty to discover. With its proximity to Fernandina Beach, visitors to Amelia Island also have the luxury of exploring a quaint beachside town filled with amazing seafood, cute shops, and an active nightlife.

A Day Trip to St. Armand’s Circle

If you have never heard of St. Armand’s Circle, it is a small island off the coast of Sarasota, Florida, about an hour outside of Tampa. This is a perfect day trip for any local or visitor to the Gulf coast of Florida. There is plenty to do in St. Armand’s, from shopping, to eating and drinking, to biking around beautiful homes and coastlines. I recently took a day trip to St. Armand’s and have so many highlights to share with you.

Where to Go on Your Next Royal Tour

Unless you have been living under a rock this week, you have probably kept up with - or at least heard of - all the royal drama. If you haven’t watched the Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and Oprah interview, stop everything you are doing; block two hours off on your calendar and catch up on the tea.

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?

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.

Whether you travel to enjoy Mardi Gras or just a long weekend with friends or family, here are the MUST-DOS when visiting NOLA.

48 Hours in Amsterdam, the Netherlands

Based on our scheduling, we only had 48 hours to spend in Amsterdam before we headed to Paris, France, for two days. This is absolutely not enough time to take in either city, but after getting a taste of all that Amsterdam has to offer, it inspired us to make a future return trip. If you only have a short time to spend in the capital of the Netherlands, these are my recommendations to make the most of your stay.

The Super Bowl is Coming to Tampa

Now that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are the first to ever play a Super Bowl in their home stadium, Tampa is looking to be even more exciting leading up to game day. Although it’s highly unlikely you will snag a ticket to one of the hottest events of the year, we have rounded up some of our must-dos if you are planning a trip to Tampa in time for the big game.

Must-Dos in Boston, Massachusetts

A few years back, I had the pleasure of visiting a new city: Boston, Massachusetts, home of the Boston Red Sox, Mike’s Pastry, and the Freedom Trail. There is plenty to see and do in this historic New England city, but here are my top recommendations for your next trip.
