When I choose where to travel, I think of where I haven’t been, where I want to go (everywhere), my budget, the most cost friendly travel destination, and so on. I do take into account opinions of people I have known who have done to my ideal location, but take advice with a grain of salt.

In the beginning of 2020, while in the throes of a global pandemic, most every person and industry were impacted one way or another. Some of the hardest hit were events and travel industries.

With Kansas City getting world wide attention from Travis Kelci and Taylor Swift's romance (along with Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs back-to-back Super Bowl wins). I figured it was time for me to share my experience spending a week around Kansas City, Kansas and Missouri.

There is something so magnificent and memorable about travel, but unfortunately our mind occasionally glosses over some of the amazing travel memories. I took a three week writing course in London that required us to keep a travel journal of places we saw and new experiences we encountered.

When people hear about the city of Orlando, they think of Disney World and theme parks such as Animal Kingdom and Epcot. What people don’t realize is how much more the city has to offer in addition to being the most magical place on earth. It is filled with art, culture, nature, and some of the best restaurants around, sure to delight young and old alike.

Providence isn't as overwhelming as NYC or DC but has a lot to keep you entertained. Newport on the other hand is a quaint, upscale coastal town filled with history and nature. From a tour of the Vanderbilt Mansion to a stroll along the cliff walk. Even with the cold weather, neither of these cities disappoint even in the colder months.

Packing for a trip to NYC can be tricky depending on what time of year it is, where you are coming from, what you are doing, and so on.

Last weekend, we were recent visitors to Richmond for a special occasion and what a great spot to visit! There was a large group of us in town for the wedding and stayed at the Omni Richmond Downtown right in the center of downtown Richmond, Virginia's capital city. The downtown area was super cute, close to the Church Hill section of town and blocks from the Canal Walk.

Montreal is located in the Canadian country in the North American region. Montreal is a great place to visit all year round, but with the weather over the spring and summer, it is just delightful to see during warmer months. Being able to stroll down the Lachine Canal and through old Montreal, grab some food in the Jean-Talon Market, or go for a hike through Mount Royal Park; these are some of the best things around downtown Montreal. The only issue is there is so much to see and do in one of Canada's most dense cities, my parents like I’m sure many others, didn't know where to start with planning so that they optimize their six days in the city.

Whether you want to take a stroll down the Tampa Riverwalk, hop on some roller coasters at a water park with the whole family, or take in some culture at the Tampa Museum of Art. This post will review in great detail all the fun things to do from downtown Tampa Bay area to the central Gulf Coast beaches and everywhere in between.

In honor of Memorial Day, I wanted to write about my visit to Salt Lake City Utah.

In February we celebrated my Mom's birthday with an extended weekend to Saint Augustine, Florida.

In honor of Mother's Day, I wanted to share a post honoring my Mother. In February of 2013 my family and I went to Hawaii to celebrate my Mom's birthday.

Whether you are coming down for the Miami nightlife, the Miami beaches, or you are a big fan of Miami Vice (yeah Don Johnson); there are many reasons to visit Miami, Florida and thousands of reasons that will keep you coming back for more.

The city of Tijuana is not a super large city by Mexico or the U.S. standards but it is a decent size border city in Northern Mexico. Visitors have the option of flying into the Tijuana airport, driving into Mexico or leaving their car in a parking lot in the city of San Diego and walking across the pedestrian bridge to the Baja California border town.

Each trip I plan, I need to continually remind myself to appreciate people’s opinions while taking those opinions with a grain of salt. If I didn’t, I would have missed out on the amazing opportunity to visit Bangkok, Thailand. My experience in Bangkok was nothing short of magical. From the sights and history to the food and people of Thailand, all made my experience one for the books.

With Easter Sunday upon us, it made me think of my dream vacation to Rome.

As Passover is upon us, I wanted to share about my travels to the country of Israel.
