Our 10 Day Italy Road Trip
Italy has been on my bucket list for years. I mean, why wouldn’t it be? Great food, amazing art and history, and beautiful scenery always make for an amazing trip. Jonny had served his mission (for the Church of Jesus Christ) in northern Italy, so when we got married we decided that we would save up for a big trip to Italy together. Just about two years into our marriage, we were able to snag some great discounted flights and we anxiously waited until we could pack our bags and take off! We decided to rent a car and explore the country on an 10-day Italy road trip. And I’m…

How to Have a Dreamy Alaska Honeymoon + A Sample Itinerary
Imagine a place so green, lush, and human-less it feels like you stepped back in time to the Jurrasic period. Picture glaciers so big they stick out like giant scars on the mountains hundreds of miles away. Envision so many bald eagles flying around and snatching fish you’ll wonder if they really were on the endangered list. #Murica Can you picture such an amazing, adventurous place? I’ll be honest. When my fiance (now darling husband) and I booked our honeymoon to Alaska, I wasn’t expecting anything that incredible. I mean I knew we were in for a treat. A huge adventure. Everyone know’s Alaska is the Last Frontier, the place…

New York City on a Budget
New York City on a budget. Sounds like an oxymoron right? But the great thing is, traveling to the concrete jungle is affordable when you’re broke. Trust me, I would know. With some careful planning and as always, saving, I finally got to check off one of the most iconic cities in the world off my bucket list. I was so excited I listened to T-Swifts “Welcome to New York” song on repeat for a month. New York didn’t disappoint. Well, except when we got turned down to see Jimmy Fallon. That will forever be one of the biggest disappointments of my life. We had standby tickets to see…

Worried About Getting Sick On Your Next Big Trip? Read This.
*This post contains affiliate links. Have you ever been traveling and then suddenly came down with a nasty bug? I have. It sucked. I was running what would be my 4th Ragnar Relay in beautiful Napa valley when I came down with a nasty cold. At first, I just thought it was allergies. But when my tonsils swole up and my throat ached I figured this was more than just some sniffles. There wasn’t much I could do about it, so I just continued groggily and painfully running and ended up feeling crappy the whole trip. It was definitely my least favorite Ragnar. I promised myself after that experience that…

I Spent All My Money On A Trip of A Lifetime: Here’s What Happened
It All Started With a Bucket List When I was in high school, I wrote out a bucket list. It was a pretty adventurous bucket list to say the least. Although it had some common goals like going to my dream university and graduating, it mostly consisted of traveling to far off places. Places like New Zealand, Europe, maybe even South America. As I was approaching graduation, (from my favorite University that I did happen to get into) I had a sudden wave of wanderlust hit me HARD. If you enjoy traveling, I’m sure you know what I’m talking about. All at once all you can think about is going somewhere…
