  • My 4 step travel planning guide

    Choose a Destination/Book a flight This is an interesting phase for me. I can be so incredibly random with my choices sometimes. Often my trips are planned around events, festivals, certain times of year to avoid being a grumpy butt in hot weather, Ed Sheeran concerts…the list goes on. The beautiful part of social media […]

  • Kentucky Derby

    When I was in college, I worked as a waitress at a harness race track. Every year, the busiest day of the year was Derby Day. People got all dressed up, wore fancy hats, drank a lot, and spent a lot. It was a huge party. I knew that someday I would get to the […]

  • Finding my True Self…in Sedona

    Many of us have had a point in our lives where we are lost, not sure of which path to take, not sure of our life purpose. We sometimes lose the motivation and drive to better ourselves. We feel stuck. Summer 2021 was that time for me. The pandemic took away my escape, travel. Sure, […]

  • (The) North Pole and Fairbanks, AK

    When I left you last, we had just spent the first half of our Alaskan Adventure watching the ceremonial start and official re-start of the 50th Iditarod. We had a great stay at an adorable cabin on Great Lake, then headed north to Fairbanks. If you travel north on the Parks Highway (the only highway […]

  • Italy…when NOT to go…and how to be VIP at Ed Sheeran Concert

    Oh Italy, you are full of amazing history. Your tiramisu and gelato cannot be beat. Your coffee is delicious, but I wish you’d take a breakfast lesson from the British. While we’re on the topic of coffee, why do you charge more for people who want to sit and drink the coffee? Your weather….. just […]

  • First time to London–all alone

    Why wouldn’t you take advantage of combining two of your favorite things? In this case, I stumbled upon one ticket for Ed Sheeran’s Divide Tour. The catch was, it was in London. Well heck, I’ve always wanted to visit London, screw it, ‘lesgo. I flew Norwegian Airline to London Gatwick Airport. At this time in […]

  • You traveled during a PANDEMIC?

    Sure did. I don’t expect anyone to understand, but I did travel during, and will still continue to travel. See, travel to me, is so much more than flocking to the beach, getting drunk and stumbling back to my room. Don’t get me wrong, I have done that plenty of times. My life keeps handing […]

  • 3 Washington National Parks in one Weekend?!

    That’s right folks, one (long) weekend, and all three Washington State National Parks checked off. This was supposed to be a 5 1/2 day trip, but thanks to a last minute flight schedule change I lost a whole day. Sure, I was bummed. I would most certainly have to rush through some stuff and flip […]

  • Travel Booking Lessons Learned….

    I used to have a strong desire to be a travel agent. One of the reasons I love travel so much is the planning process. I love fitting all the pieces together. I have helped so many people “just for fun” plan their trips. I spend hours on TripAdvisor, Google Flights and YouTube. My phone […]
