My 3-Day Vegas Itinerary

I cannot believe it has already been a month since my family and I took a long weekend trip to Vegas. Time is really flying by this summer. For our 3-day trip we were able to pack so much in and honestly if you just want to hang out on the strip you do not need much more time than that. Keep following along on how I spent a jam-packed weekend in Vegas.

Highlights from July in Colorado

Over the last few days, I’ve had my social media channels remind me that this time in 2019, I was living it up in Colorado. While I went in November 2019 and February 2020, the July trip to Colorado taught me all the summery things to love about the state. These were just a few of the best parts...

Highlights from the Jersey Shore

My summer travel plans have officially gained another trip: Asbury Park, New Jersey. Over the holiday weekend, we got an invite to Tyler’s cousin’s wedding in September, which will take place on the Jersey Shore. It’s been a minute since we saw his family, but a few things stand out from our 2019 trip to visit them - for starters, it was a very cold January! Otherwise…

Delano Hotel Review

Recently I had the pleasure of staying at the Delano in Las Vegas. The Delano is apart of the Mandalay Bay property connected at the base of the casino. The Delano is very different than other properties across the Las Vegas Strip. This boutique feel hotel does not see the same hustle and bustle that most Las Vegas hotel lobbies see. The spacious rooms also make this the perfect hotel for families and large groups. But let us take a deeper dive into the property.

Katie’s Summer 2022 Travel Plans

When I wrote my 2021 travel wrap up, I hoped that 2022 would be a year with a lot more traveling. Boy, has it been! So far this year, I have taken my first solo trip, exploring Osprey and Venice, Florida; joined the extended family for an Irish vacation; and added a new country to my list, visiting Madrid and Barcelona in Spain. After these past couple years, that alone would seem like a lot. But this summer is looking hotter and hotter with travel plans...

Our 4-Day Itinerary for Barcelona, Spain

Fun fact about Barcelona: Spanish isn’t the primary language spoken there. It’s actually the capital of the region of Spain known as Catalonia, where the language is Catalan. Fortunately for us, most people spoke both Spanish and Catalan (as well as quite a bit of English), but we definitely felt the language barrier more here than in Madrid. Here’s what else we learned and did in our four days in Barcelona...

5-Day Summer Itinerary in Maine

I recently returned from a far too short trip to Maine. I definitely stepped out of my comfort zone on this trip. I traded in beach front relaxation for beautiful coastal hikes and plenty of fresh Maine Lobster. Check out my 5-day low key itinerary to Bar Harbor, Maine.

Spotlight: The Salty Donut

Y’all know I love all kinds of desserts, ranging from Crumbl Cookies’s cookies to Bright Ice’s ice cream. Of course, I do have my favorite: donuts. Whether they’re vegan or Voodoo, I never pass up the chance to sample a possible new favorite. Which is why when Sara asked if I wanted to go to Orlando this past weekend to try out The Salty Donut, I jumped all over it.

Music in Music City

Do not go to Nashville and expect to not be consumed in Country Music. Everywhere you go from the airport to Broadway you will hear some of the best live music. And it is absolutely my favorite part of the city.  As a die hard Country Music fan I can’t myself singing along to all my favorite songs from eating dinner and hear it over the speakers to right in front of the stage at a classic Broadway Honky Tonk.

Our 4-Day Itinerary for Madrid, Spain

In February, we found cheap flights to Madrid out of Tampa, and we jumped on the chance to finally go to Spain. As we had planned, we split our time between Madrid and Barcelona; the cities are both very different, but also both worth a visit. Here’s what we did with our four days in Madrid...
