Our 10-Day Iceland and Ring Road Itinerary

Dec 28, 2020
Katie
My first road trip as an adult was actually in Iceland, and nothing can quite compare to that adventure! In March 2018, a small group of us decided to meet up in Reykjavik to tackle Ring Road (Route 1) in a camper van. With a lot of planning (and a lot of last-minute plan changes), we were able to see a ton of the country in just 10 days.

Road Trip Recap: Asheville and Blue Ridge

Dec 14, 2020

While 2020 may have cancelled or postponed many of our travel plans, we weren’t about to let it ruin our last chance to get away, just the two of us. We figured out over the summer how to take a road trip while pregnant, so once again, we decided to hit the road with our two dogs in tow. Our first stop? Asheville, North Carolina, by way of Atlanta, Georgia.

New York City at Christmas

Dec 10, 2020

I may be biased, but I think I had the best first trip to New York City, hands down. During my senior year of college, my two best friends and I took a 4-day trip to the Big Apple right after finals week and a few weeks before Christmas. Five years later, I have been back to NYC a handful of times, but nothing beats the city at Christmas time while enjoying a whole bunch of firsts with your college besties.

Winter Must-Do: Visit Ice Castles

Dec 7, 2020

When Liz coordinated our visit to Copper Mountain for snow tubing, she also suggested we look at Ice Castles. The award-winning ice attraction has four locations in North America, one of which is in Dillon, Colorado; the other Ice Castles can be found in Lincoln, New Hampshire; Midway, Utah, at the Homestead Resort; and Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, at the Geneva National Resort & Club. A quick look at the images tagged with #IceCastles was enough to sell me on a visit.

Saturday morning, we took off for Copper Mountain. About an hour and a half away from Boulder, Copper Mountain is a great spot for both winter sports enthusiasts and people who just like to play in the snow. They have tons of activities, like the Rocky Mountain Coaster and free snowshoe tours, as well as plenty of shopping and dining. Another key activity at Copper Mountain? Tubing.

Located an hour north of San Francisco in Marin County is a vast area of protected Northern California coastline called Point Reyes National Seashore. From hiking and kayaking to taking in breathtaking views, there is plenty to do! This place is definitely worth a visit on your next trip to San Francisco or the Northern California coast.
