Chances are if you have dreams of visiting Thailand that the beautiful images of places like Phi Phi Island and Railay Beach have caught your attention at some point. While places like these are now pretty touristy and crowded I will say that there is no shortage of gorgeous Thai islands to choose from when…
When I think of Thailand some of the first few images that immediately come to my mind are gorgeous beaches, diverse green landscapes, waterfalls, excellent food, friendly locals, elephants, and of course incredible temples. With the exception of beaches, you’ll find all of these things in Chiang Mai and so much more! There is definitely…
Hello everyone! I’m so excited to get started on this new series! If you follow me on social media, you know that Joe and I spent the month of June on our honeymoon traveling around Thailand and Sri Lanka and it was the best experience! Such a perfect adventurous start to this next chapter in…
Hello everyone! It’s been awhile! Wow, so much has happened in my life since my last post all the way back in March! I spent most of my spring doing a lot of wedding planning and enjoying all the fun events with friends and family leading up to the wedding. We got married in June…

Ahhh, summertime in the Pacific Northwest. The best time of year for a Washingtonian hands down and dare I say we have the best summers than anywhere else?! It’s no wonder tourism spikes during this time of year for us where we have some of the best weather around. Not too hot, not too cold…
Ahhh, Athens. Some people love it, some people hate it. If you’re headed over to Greece soon you’re more than likely going to be near the city at some point in your trip and in my opinion it is definitely worth checking out Athens, at least for a day or two. If you have more…
Crete is Greece’s largest island and if you think you’re going to cover a lot of ground in a week, I’m here to tell you that it may feel like it but you’ll have barely scratched the surface of all the wonderful places that Crete has to offer. We spent a week in Crete and…
Ahhhh, Crete. A beautiful and vast island that I feel truly has everything to suit anyone’s traveling tastes.
