I’m no stranger to Austin, TX as you all know by now, but I very rarely spend the night in a hotel there or do anything outside of eating at my favorite restaurants and crashing the couches of friends. But after a tumultuous September, we decided to head down for an overnight in Austin and … Continue reading On The LINE

I Still Love You
I am back from an exhausting trip to Austin. Exhausting? Correct! Not just from traveling in a pandemic, concerned about every move I made, but also due to my newfound furlough at work and car troubles on my return trip. But that’s not what we’re here for on this fine Wednesday! I am here to … Continue reading I Still Love You
Traveling during a Pandemic
This week, Garrett and I were supposed to be going to Germany and France. It was a trip that I had been looking forward to for what felt like forever, but like so many others, that trip has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I’ve been in a bit of a slump because of … Continue reading Traveling during a Pandemic
I’ll Hopefully Go to Paris
I’ve spent a good portion of my adult life traveling and it’s one of my proudest accomplishments. I’ve never had travel anxiety or stress once I step onto the airplane, but the moments leading up to crossing the threshold between airport and airplane are pure agony for me. I’ve had this incredible Germany/France trip planned … Continue reading I’ll Hopefully Go to Paris
Out of Office Replies
I’m a huge vacation planner and am already planning my next vacation, basically six months out. I look forward to it all year, month, week...whatever. If I’ve learned anything in my last year of working for my organization, it’s that sometimes PTO is ignored. It doesn’t take long for me to get frustrated, give in … Continue reading Out of Office Replies
Pardon My French
In the last decade, I traveled near and far and fell in love both through new places and new faces. At coffee with a friend, we were talking about three words that we would use to describe ourselves, and one that came to mind was, Francophile. When she asked me what a French-inspired woman embodies, … Continue reading Pardon My French
The Couple that Travels Together
Traveling with G is hands down one of the coolest things I could do. We learned so much about each other and got to explore an incredible place that we hadn’t been to before. There were so many lessons we learned while we were gone for a week & I just thought it was absolutely … Continue reading The Couple that Travels Together
Chasing Waterfalls
After a day of drinking, it was time to get back on the exploration trail, so we headed to El Yunque National Forest! Fun fact: El Yunque is completely free and is the only tropical rainforest in the national forest system...pretty cool and beautiful to say the least. El Yunque is decently far from Old … Continue reading Chasing Waterfalls
Some of Y’all Never Had Bacardí for Breakfast
After a restful night, we woke up to the sun through the curtains and the water hitting the shore and smiled because it was time to go on the Bacardí Distillery Tour! This was probably my favorite day of our vacation and it was worth every penny spent. We started off with breakfast at Zest, … Continue reading Some of Y’all Never Had Bacardí for Breakfast
Slow M(ocean)
Puerto Rico was incredible...I’m not even going to pretend like it wasn’t the tropical escape that I desperately needed. From incredible food to breathtaking views, it was something out of a Pinterest board. We decided to stay at the San Juan Water & Beach Club and I will recommend it until the day that I … Continue reading Slow M(ocean)
