This historical capital city of New Mexico is known for its art and food scenes, but has so much more to offer! It’s such a walkable city, and with several options for day trips, it’s a great spot to base out of for a long weekend. Santa Fe sits at over 7,000 ft of elevation,…
3 Days in Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA

A Weekend in Nashville, TN
Nashville, Tennessee, also known as “Music City” is a great destination for a long weekend. It’s also a very popular destination, so be sure to plan ahead and maybe visit between November and March when it’s low season. I was there on a girls trip in October, and it was still pretty hot and humid…

A Weekend in Santiago, Chile

4 Days in Cusco, Peru..including Machu Picchu

This particular itinerary is based on a long weekend with kids. Fall break, President’s…
4 Days in Page, AZ and Zion National Park, UT
Page, Arizona is a lesser-known area for those from out of state. It’s a pretty small, sleepy town in Northern Arizona, just below the border with Utah. It has some beautiful scenery, a really fun lake, and is a great spot for a weekend getaway. I’ve paired this weekend in Page with a 2-night trip…
3 Days in Rome, Italy
