You guys know by now that Tim and I aren’t traveling as much as we use to, well not internationally anyway. We are focusing a little more on urban adventures and exploring Chicago now that we’re new residents. But I would be lying if I […]

Ever since I saw “The Wedding Planner” I have always wanted to go to a movie in the park. When we decided to move to Chicago it was one of the first things I started to daydream about. I could see Tim and myself sitting […]

Well, May has come and gone in the blink of an eye. It’s been getting a little warmer… The city seems to have a little more pep in its step too, so I think this means summer is right around the corner… maybe? no? okay […]

The American National Park System, which we so often just call the National Parks, is a marvel of modern public land management and policy that has inspired countless of other countries to do the same. They comprise and protect some of our nation’s most biodiverse […]

I haven’t really touched much on our minimalism + tiny living journey lately. Last time we really talked about the subject was around this time last year when we decided to move into a 1 bedroom apartment and backed out of buying our tiny house. […]

My friend and fellow mural lover Kristin, blogger-badass-content-marketer-extraordinaire at Camels & Chocolate, does these every month and I absolutely live for them. Even before we met and I was a fangirl of her blog these were some of my favorite posts. I try to read […]

Tim and I recently got an Alexa for our teeny tiny apartment. We mainly got it to play music for the mutts while we are at work but since she’s joined our family, I find myself using her more and more. With all the features […]

Spring Breaks just ended which means it is the perfect time to start thinking about summer vacation! Growing up I always loved summer because it meant we were going to road trip and spend time together as a family, usually in a theme park setting. […]

I remember when my friend Selvey went to a drier climate for a family vacation, she said what she missed the most was the moisture in the air from our sunshine state home. It is one of those moments that had absolutely no importance in […]

When the temperatures outside take a nose dive so does the amount of moisture in your skin. And it isn’t just the colder weather that is to blame. Long hot showers, heat in the office or at home, and otherwise normal products all dry out […]

So here we are, a week into 2019 and I have gone into a full on anti-resolution. I’ve eaten a full pint of Ben and Jerry’s, more cookies than I care to count, and haven’t stepped foot in a gym. I’ve gone through a 3 […]

Heading to Tulum for an awesome vacation is so much fun! From history to beaches, there is something for everyone in the family. But before you jet set to Mexico here are a few Tulum travel tips you should keep in mind that will help […]

It is December 30th, 2018 and Tim and I are both fighting back colds. But my teary eyes aren’t the febrile or cold-related kind. They are those that come from months of getting to know amazing individuals who pour moonshine and whiskey while they deliver […]

Cartagena is a gem of a city. With beautiful beaches that hug Colombia’s Caribbean Coast, a historic city center, and colorful locals with welcoming smiles it isn’t surprising to see that the rest of the world is quickly catching on to what Colombians have known […]

Much like Meghan Markle when she had her first “Tig moment”, I never felt like I knew much about wine. At least not in the connoisseur sense of wine knowledge. And when it came to buying reds and wines for drinking, I started to experience […]

When Tim and I first went to Biltmore last year, we spent most of the day exploring the house and the grounds near the estate. We didn’t make our way over to the Biltmore winery until recently, something I am totally kicking myself in the […]

Nashville, Nashville, Nashville. Where do I start? As the Land of Hot Chicken and the trendy town where Southern sounds take the airwaves, it seems like lately everyone was making their way to Music City. And why wouldn’t they? There is so much to do! […]

Every year, as we say goodbye to one and welcome another with holly jolly cheer and anticipation for what is to come, I look forward to setting goals for the new year. There are goals that I smash, and there are goals that I abandon […]
