Museo Frida Kahlo, check. Palacio de Bellas Artes, check. Museo Nacional de Antropología, check. I have good news: If you’ve been to Mexico City once before, but only for a few days – this post’s for you (and if you haven’t? Check out my first Mexico City trip recap to start planning your first adventure!). …
One of Mexico City’s best-known and most popular attractions is also one of the hardest to get to. Before our visit last month, Michael and I read through countless guides and blog posts detailing how to get to the pyramids of Teotihuacan before ultimately deciding to book an Airbnb Experience, and even then we were …
I hopped on a $60 roundtrip flight to explore the best of New Orleans in just one day.
My visit to Montgomery felt like a whole lot of “hurry up and wait.” Michael and I arrived in the early afternoon from Birmingham, located about an hour north of the state’s capital. We headed downtown and paid for a metered spot near the Civil Rights Memorial. My first impression of the city’s downtown area …
Although the main draw for my trip to this corner of Alabama was a visit to Unclaimed Baggage in nearby Scottsboro, it would have been an utter shame to skip over the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama – a visit enhanced by yet another fairly recent trip to the Kennedy Space Center …

At the start of the year, Michael and I resolved to visit one Florida destination each month. After a year of fun trips, we still felt like we barely scratched the surface of all the Sunshine State has to offer, and trying to choose the twelfth and final Florida destination for our monthly trips was …
I first encountered the sport Pétanque (also called Boules) when I was researching for my very first trip to France back in 2014. Upon arrival, I witnessed the cutthroat nature and unshakeable camaraderie of the players Michael and I saw in the parks of Paris and so were inspired to attend the largest tournament in …
You could say Mount Dora lives up to its “festival city” nickname, with so many events on the calendar. And indeed, a festival is how Michael and I found ourselves in the city one beautiful October morning as part of our mission to visit a different Florida destination each month. The Mount Dora Craft Fair …
Brussels was the city I was least excited to visit on my recent trip to Europe: I’d heard the city was crowded and dirty, and that it has a reputation for being a bit dangerous. I might have even only trekked in for a day trip or skipped it entirely, were it not for the …
