Now that it’s been a little while since our 15-month trip has ended, we have had some time to look back and reflect on our incredible adventure. This blog has been a great way to share our journey and we wanted to thank all of you for following along. We have been back in New […]
We thought it would be fitting to finish our trip where it all began. Back to where we hatched the idea of the trip in the first place – Hawaii. When we first visited Hawaii in 2013, the trip of a lifetime seemed more like a dream than something that we could actually pull off. […]
Last September we were just a few weeks into our trip and were staying with Christina’s friend in Berlin. One morning, we were taking a walk and ran into a couple she knew. We stopped to talk and the subject of our trip came up. After discussing our itinerary and future plans for a few […]
This is the year of the wedding. Between the two of us, we were invited to a total of 11(!!) weddings this year all across the US and in Europe. While we consider ourselves very lucky to have such a great network of friends, and love celebrating these big moments in their lives, it was […]
After our two weeks in Tanzania, it was time to head back to Europe to attend our friend’s wedding in Northern England. Four flights and 27 hours later, we arrived in Newcastle. Unfortunately, our bags did not. Hard to believe that in the 60+ flights we have taken this year, this was the first time […]

Google our planned itinerary time + location (ex: “5 days in Amsterdam”) to see what other bloggers suggest seeing […]
“There’s a Pumbaa” shouted our safari guide Philomon as he pointed to a warthog wandering through some short grass close to the dirt road where we were driving. It was our second day of driving through the Serengeti and we had already seen thousands of animals during this short time. Giraffes, lions, zebras, cheetahs, baboons, […]
The good thing about visiting popular tourist destinations is that they are popular for a reason. They’re beautiful, you can always find amazing restaurants, and there tends to be a lot to see and do. The bad thing (besides the times you have to fight your way through the crowds) is almost always the price. […]
After almost a month at home in the States and some great time spent catching up with friends and family, it was time to get back out on the (international) road at the end of May. Our first stop was Romania where we attended the wedding of some of our good friends. We stayed a […]
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion. The same thing can be said for travelers – if you slow down for too long, you risk losing steam. So, it’s a good thing that our time back home in the States was busy! We had a little time […]
