Positano – Path of the Gods Hike
Hi friends, welcome back to my Italy series! It probably comes as no surprise that a hike in the Amalfi Coast was one of my top priorities, and hiking the Path of the Gods (Il Sentiero degli Dei in Italian) lived up to my high expectations. The name of this trail comes from the myth…

Hi friends, welcome back! Summer officially starts today and as usual, I'm ready with my Summer Bucket List. We have a busy summer ahead so I’m not sure how far I’ll get on the list, but it’s nice to think of all the fun possibilities. We booked a house in the Catskills for the Fourth…
Montreal, Canada – Mount Royal
Hi friends, welcome back! 2022 was filled with lots of travels, and today I’m finally getting around to sharing part one of our long weekend in Montreal.

Bavaria, Germany – Zugspitze & Eibsee
Hi friends welcome back to my Germany and Austria series 🙂 The following morning we had planned to hike, but the sky was so clear that we easily decided to forgo the difficult hike and head to Zugspitze instead. We bought our cable car tickets for 63 euros a person, and then anxiously awaited our…
Bavaria, Germany – Hohenschwangau Castle & Alpsee
Hi friends, welcome back to my Germany and Austria series 🙂 After visiting Neuschwanstein Castle, we had about three hours until our tour of Hohenschwangau Castle, so we hiked down and walked around the little town for a bit.
