I traveled around Italy for 10 days, and it was an amazing trip! We started in Venice and made our way down to the Amalfi Coast with lots of stops in between. There’s so much to see in Italy, and I feel like I just scratched the surface. I had amazing experiences and some not […]

Airbnb is THE website to find a place to stay when you travel today. But is it actually the best way to find lodging? I’ve stayed in tons of different Airbnbs, from a tiny cabin in upstate New York to an apartment in the heart of Florence, but staying in an Airbnb isn’t always the […]

In last week’s post, I mentioned that I’m not a fan of New York City. It still isn’t my favorite place, but Greenwich Village won me over! It was such a beautiful area with some fascinating history, and it was way less crowded than other places I’ve visited in NYC. These are some of the […]

Charleston is one of my favorite cities in the U.S.! There’s so much to do, and it’s so beautiful and colorful 🙂 I’ve been a few times now, and I visited again recently for a girl’s weekend (Charleston is a great spot for a girl’s weekend!) so I put together an itinerary for my favorite […]

I LOVE how colorful Charleston is! Last week I posted about the best places to shop and eat in Charleston, and I love that even the stores and markets are colorful. Charleston is the closest thing I’ve seen to Burano Island in the U.S. so far. So if you want to see some beautiful pastel-colored […]

After visiting New Orleans, Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, and a quick visit to North Carolina, my last stop on my adventure was Charleston for a girl’s weekend! I have been to Charleston a few times before, and it’s definitely one of my favorite cities in the U.S. It’s so pretty and colorful! One of my favorite […]

You can view all posts from my trip to Italy here.  During our last day on the Amalfi Coast, we toured the area’s namesake- Amalfi, Italy. It was built around the 9th century, and it was really cool to see a lot of the historic buildings still standing! We spent the day leisurely walking around sightseeing […]

I love living in Philadelphia, but sometimes the noisy city life can be a bit much. I hadn’t taken Annika on a trip to a new place in over a year, so I decided to take a weekend vacation in pretty much the middle of nowhere. I’ve been wanting to visit the Poconos but couldn’t […]

You can view all posts from my trip to Italy here.  Last week’s post was about the incredible boat ride I took around Capri (including getting to swim in one of the grottos!), and I highly recommend doing it if you visit Capri! It was one of my favorite experiences in Italy (and definitely my […]

You can view all posts from my trip to Italy here.  I’ve said before that one of my favorite things I did in Italy was take tours of different cities, like our rowing tour in Venice and our driving tour of Tuscany, and the boat tour of Capri was probably my favorite! We got to […]
