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…

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...

Spotlight: Gallagher’s Pumpkins and Christmas Trees

It seems like everyone I know has been enjoying fun fall activities, like corn mazes (you can find a great one at Sweetfields Farm) and pumpkin patches. After seeing Gallagher’s Pumpkins and Christmas Trees pop up a few times on social media, I told my husband that we needed to make a trip over. They’re family-owned and operated by the Gallagher family, who clearly takes pride in their tree and pumpkin patch. We went this past weekend, and it’s now clear why they’re so popular.

3.5 Days in Copenhagen, Denmark

We only booked flights to Copenhagen because we found an amazing deal on flights while I was playing around in Google Flights’ explore tool. For $375 roundtrip, how could we say no? Once those were booked, we did some research, bought an Away bag (I did, anyway), booked some great dining experiences, and had a wonderful time in Copenhagen on a budget.

Safety Harbor Spotlight

Safety Harbor is one of my favorite towns in the Tampa Bay Area. Conveniently located just over the Courtney Campbell Causeway, Safety Harbor is the perfect meeting spot for travelers coming from either Tampa or St. Pete. This quite little town is not only the idealistic place to live in the area but also a great place to spend an evening or day exploring.
