During my Iowa road trip with my mom and sister, we visited Decorah. We planned on going to Decorah to visit the Vesterheim Norwegian-American Museum, and our trip happened to coincide with Nordic Fest! It was our first time at Nordic Fest, and we had a great time. If you’re planning on attending, here are […]

While we were in the Black Hills during our Midwest road trip, we spent one day in Badlands National Park! The views were incredible and we saw a TON of wildlife, which was awesome. If you’re planning a trip to the Badlands, here are all the amazing sights you can see! Planning a day in […]

Naples Botanical Garden is a must-visit if you’re in the area! I love visiting parks and gardens when I travel, and Naples’ garden was one of the most expansive I’ve visited. My family lives in Fort Myers, FL, and I see a new place every time I visit them. Naples Botanical Garden was the latest […]

Taking a trip to see fall colors is becoming one of my favorite things to do, and lucky for me, Philly has some places nearby to see the pretty colors! (If you’re not able to leave Philly this fall, I highly recommend seeing Boathouse Row at peak fall colors). Matt and I have done trips […]

When is the best time to visit Philadelphia? You honestly can’t go wrong with visiting at any point in the year! There are so many different things you can do if the weather is too hot or too cold. But that being said, I think there amazing times to visit and times that aren’t the […]

I first heard about Silkeborg, Denmark from “Parks and Recreation.” Leslie Knope went to London and met the mayor of Silkeborg, played by Heidi Klum. During my month in Aarhus, I knew I had to visit Silkeborg since I’m a big Parks and Rec fan, and sadly, I didn’t run into Heidi Klum. But it […]

Aarhus, Denmark has one of the most interesting “old towns” that I’ve been to because it actually isn’t part of the city. Den Gamle By is considered to be a museum, and it’s a little outside the main part of the city. You do have to pay to enter (but I will talk about a […]

Since the Faroe Islands are still a pretty remote place, when I was planning my trip, I was struggling to figure out what to pack for the Faroe Islands since there aren’t many resources out there yet. I think I did a pretty good job considering I’ve never been to a place like it before, […]

I can’t believe it’s already been one year since I quit my job to become a freelancer! This year has had its ups and downs with the downs far outnumbering the ups. But I’m getting back on my feet and I’m continuing on, even though I’ve failed repeatedly as a freelancer and lost my biggest […]

Five years ago, my roundtrip flight to Denmark in the middle of winter cost over $1,000. Just a few weeks ago, I bought a roundtrip ticket to Denmark for only $400, AND it’s during tourist season! I’m a huge fan of shopping as cheaply as possible (I regularly buy clothes from Walmart), and since flights […]

You can view all posts from my trip to Italy here.  Naples was my last stop on my tour of Italy with my friends! I wish we could have ended it on a high note, but our day in Naples was the worst experience we had the entire trip. I thought I would do a post […]
