If you're anything like me, now's the time you are planning your 2020 trips and celebrating the new year by booking a flight (#newyearsameme). If you need a quick fix, here are some fun weekend trips I love. Falmouth or Martha's Vineyard / Cape Cod, Massachusetts When we visited Cape Cod, we opted for the [...]
Over the past few months, I've been looking for a good way to document all my adventures. My blog is a great place in a digital sense, but I always like to have a physical memory of a place to save and look through. So – I'm super excited to share my newfound way of [...]
It's odd to think how we're taught a particular view of a place all our lives, and a short 48-hour excursion can change our minds entirely. I have always pictured Arizona as a dry, hot desert, but I got a new taste of what this diverse state has to offer in February when we road [...]
I just wanted to get out of the city. I was feeling the winter blues, back busy at work after a long and fulfilling holiday, and I was ready for another adventure. Then the coolest Airbnb popped up on my search, and I didn't think twice. These are the winter weekends I love writing about, [...]

One thing that I often find myself complaining about at the end of the summer is that I didn't get to explore the charming neighborhoods within the Minneapolis-St. Paul area enough.

As you may have seen, the Super Bowl made it's way to the #BoldNorth this winter. In late January and early February, Minneapolis became a frozen tundra and tourist haven. While I didn't appreciate the traffic or parking prices, I made every effort to be a tourist in my own city and take advantage of [...]
The North Shore of Minnesota is beautiful all year round. But the North Shore in the winter? Amazing. I am blown away. We planned this weekend trip a few months ago, and I was extremely worried that a January trip would be cold, foggy, icy and miserable. We luckily came on a warm weekend where [...]
