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…

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.

5 Days in San Francisco, California

It’s been a week since we got back from California. While our anniversary trip to Savannah, Georgia, looked a lot different last year for multiple reasons, we learned that we are different travelers now than we were before we became parents. Considering what a whirlwind visit I had when I last visited SF for a 36-hour business trip, this trip was definitely more slow-paced, with a lot more napping involved. After we knocked out our pre-trip planning, here’s how we spent five leisurely days in San Francisco.

15 Places to See Redwoods

Having now seen these redwood trees in person, I can tell you that pictures don't do them justice. They are giant and gorgeous, and you should absolutely see them in person if you can. Outside of the Muir Woods National Monument, which I highly recommend visiting, you can also find them growing naturally in other areas throughout California and southern Oregon, including these locations.

Where to Go to See Van Gogh

Emily in Paris has highlighted some really cool must-dos - like the immersive Van Gogh experience she attends in the first season. So when I saw that Van Gogh Alive had extended its stay at The Dalí, I knew I had to jump on it. I booked tickets several months ago for my husband and I to soak in the exhibit, and we finally went last week.

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!
