St. Pete Baseball Trifecta

The Tampa Bay area has been known for baseball for decades. With an MLB team, 5 minor league teams, and a training ground for amateurs and professionals alike.  But those you know the Tampa Bay Rays know that going to a baseball game is way more than just showing up for 9 innings, a hot dog, and a beer. The area has baseball staples that will give you the whole step back in time experience.

Planning Our Anniversary 2023 Trip

Friends, somehow, tomorrow is June. Where has this year gone! I’ve been fortunate to go on a few different adventures so far this year - I haven’t even shared everything we did in Finland - but we’re less than two months out from our anniversary, and we don’t know how we’re going to celebrate it this year...

48 Hours in Stockholm, Sweden

It’s hard to believe that, just a month ago, we were exploring Stockholm! April flew by, and here I am prepping to go to Bozeman and Seattle later this month (more to come on those). But before I get too ahead of myself, this is how we spent our ~48 hours in Stockholm.

Paradise on Earth

This past March on my most recent cruise we had a stop in Cozumel, Mexico. As you all know Cozumel is one of my favorite cruise ports because of the abundance of activities.   Over 10 years ago we traveled to Cozumel and went to this small beach called Paradise Beach. I remember is being a private beach with a floating jungle gym, and small restaurant, and a few chairs. Fast forward to 2023 Paradise Beach is voted one of the best all inclusive beach clubs in the Caribbean.

Bay Palms Golf Complex: What to Know

About a month ago, I signed up to volunteer with the Tampa Gator Club - go Gators! - during their 2023 Scholarship Golf Tournament. This is their biggest scholarship fundraiser of the year, which they hosted last weekend at Bay Palms Golf Complex. To no one’s surprise, this was my first time on the course, but it was gorgeous! They have a great setup there, and I honestly think it’s a bit of a hidden gem for all you golfers out there. If you’re ready for tee time, here’s what you need to know.

Cost Breakout: 5-Day Anniversary Trip to Toronto, Canada

Now that we’ve returned from Scandinavia - more to come on that soon! - we’re setting our sights on planning our upcoming anniversary trip. This encouraged me to actually log our expenses from our 2022 anniversary trip to Toronto, Canada. We dug deep into our credit card statements, and I was finally able to recycle the receipts. Here’s how our costs broke down, and approximately what we’d plan to budget for our 2023 anniversary trip.

Scottsdale Food Recs

One of my absolute favorite things is when a friend asks for travel recommendations. I love sharing my love of travel and the great experiences I have had across the world. And most of all I love sharing the food I ate while traveling.
