The Twin Cities have been on my list for a really long time. The art, fashion, and food scenes are thriving and the ease of access to nature within the metro area is utterly appealing (in fact, I warned Michael before we visited to watch out – we might just leave with a desire to …
One glance at the city of Lafayette’s name (and its former name, Vermilionville), and you’ll know you’re in Cajun Country. Despite being Louisiana’s fourth-largest city, I confess that I could not have located Lafayette on a blank map of the state before we booked our trip. So how did I end up there? Well, a …
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!). …
This post is a follow-up to my first Mexico City food post – you can find Part One right here! I’d be lying if I said that food wasn’t among my top three reasons to return to Mexico City (the other two? The culture and the people!). For months I’d been dreaming of the meals …

Michael and I were visiting the city for a single night as part of a very quick road trip through the Yellowhammer State, and our visit just so happened to fall on Sunday. With a visit to Scottsboro and Huntsville already under our …

You casually mention that you’re considering a little getaway in the Southeast, and then they say, “Well, what about Asheville?” Michael and I have heard this countless times over the past few years; suddenly it seemed like everyone was either planning a trip to the North Carolina city or had …
At the start of the year, Michael and I made a resolution: visit one Florida destination every month. Twelve months and countless adventures later, we still felt like we’d barely scratched the surface of everything the Sunshine State has to offer. Choosing our final stop was no easy task.

With so many events on the calendar, it’s easy to see that Mount Dora lives up to its “Festival City” nickname. And indeed, a festival is how Michael and I found ourselves in the Central Florida city one beautiful October morning as part of our mission to visit a different destination in our home state …
