Highlights from 2018

My First Trip to Mexico: Isla Mujeres
I didn’t know it was possible to overdose on guacamole. After five days in Mexico, I’m here to testify it’s a real thing.

We stayed on the beautiful island, Isla Mujeres, just off the coast of Cancun.… Continue reading My First Trip to Mexico: Isla Mujeres

My Friend Bought a Volvo and I Got a Free Trip to Europe
Guys, is this real life? I still can’t believe this really happened. I flew business class to Europe without spending a dime. Amber called me a few months ago and invited me on a trip of a lifetime.

Toronto Brewery Tour
If all else fails, go on your own brewery tour. I’ve been slacking on my trip planning lately and wasn’t prepared for our Toronto trip at all.

5 Days in Zion National Park
Our love affair with national parks is real. I honestly don’t know how we landed on Zion National Park, but it didn’t disappoint. We went the first week of December 2016.
