Looking for ideas to celebrate New Years Eve in Mexico City? Last year, Kevin and I had a blast ringing in 2017 at El Balcon Restaurant (check out our recap here). In fact, we loved Mexico City so much, we’re heading back again and we rarely (pretty much never!) visit a…
Heading to Philadelphia for Christmas? Kevin and I recently returned from a weekend with the family in Philly. There isn’t a better time to visit the city than the holidays with special museum exhibits, festivals and Christmas markets right in the heart of downtown. Plus, the food! If I lived…
There was one stop that I knew we couldn’t miss on our recent trip to NYC for the holidays — especially after seeing the sugary, sweet photos circulating Instagram and blowing up the Internet. DO, Cookie Dough Confections opened earlier this year and is New York City’s first-ever cookie dough scoop…
It’s December, which means one thing if you live or are visiting New York City — it is crazy busy! But I love all the energy and think it’s one of the best times to visit. A few months back, Kevin and his cousins concocted a fun idea: to hit…
We’ve been traveling so much, it’s been hard to keep up on all the blog posts! Kevin and I recently got back from our packed long weekend on the Big Island of Hawaii. If there is one thing I’m good at, it’s maximizing an itinerary. But one activity that stood…
It has been a crazy past few months of travel. At this point, I’m pretty sure the dog thinks the sitter is his new owner! Our latest travel took us to the Big Island in Hawaii where we put together a jam-packed long weekend while visiting our friend Royelen for her birthday. Like…
Kevin and I put in an effort for Halloween (okay, maybe not much!) and dressed up. Over the past few years, we feel like we’re about 90-years-old whenever Halloween comes around in West Hollywood (why is that music so loud? They’re going to go deaf!). We went to the Halloween…
Looking to maximize your time in South Africa? Check out our 2-week itinerary in South Africa, hitting hot spots in Cape Town and Johannesburg, a unique safari experience in Kruger National Park and an easy detour to Victoria Falls. A self-driving itinerary through Kruger National Park. A rule of thumb: elephants…
We’ve reached the end of our trip in Africa — wrapping up the last 24 hours in Johannesburg, a city known for its seedy reputation. While planning our 2 week vacation, I wasn’t sure that ending it in Johannesburg would be a good idea. Would it be safe? Could we…
One of the major reasons we decided to visit Africa was to see Victoria Falls — one of the largest waterfalls in the world and even taller than Niagara Falls. I have to admit, I knew NOTHING about Zambia going into this trip. But we were pleasantly surprised at just how…
