A Week in Greece: Athens, Santorini, & Naxos
Greece was on my bucket list for a long time. When my daughter was getting ready for her senior year, we asked where she would like to go that summer (and it’s a good thing we did this trip prior to starting her senior year, because it was 2019 and COVID would hit just a…
5 Days in the Turks and Caicos Islands
The Turks and Caicos Islands are made up of roughly 40 different islands, located Southeast of the Bahamas Islands in the Atlantic Ocean. Providenciales, the most popular of the islands, is known for it’s amazing white sand beaches and turquoise waters…and the beaches do not disappoint! It’s a pretty low-key destination with not a whole…
3 Days in Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Ahh Amsterdam…one of the most unique cities in Europe in terms of architecture and culture, and one of my favorite places to visit! It was the first city I visited on my very first trip to Europe more than 20 years ago, and probably the one I have visited the most. When I lived in…
4 Days in Palm Springs, CA
Palm Springs has a little something for everyone, and since the weather is almost always nice (although hot in summer!), it’s a great destination for a little getaway any time of year. Just a 2-hour drive from Los Angeles and a 4-hour drive from Phoenix, this itinerary contains 4 days worth of activities, but you…
3 Days on the Big Island, Hawaii
The Big Island (Hawaii) is one that is worth making the short flight to if you are visiting one of the other Hawaiian Islands. I don’t think you need more than 3 days there, but if you’re looking for some extra relaxation it is a good location for that! We did 4 full days on…
4 Days in Oahu, Hawaii
If it’s your first time visiting Hawaii and you’ve traveled all that way, I think it’s a must-do to spend at least a couple of days in Oahu. On our first visit to Hawaii, we spent 4 days on Oahu and then 4 days on Hawaii (The Big Island). I will cover the Hawaii itinerary…
A Week in Maui, Hawaii
Hawaii can be a little overwhelming to plan…which island to visit, where to stay, should we visit more than one island? I’ve done Hawaii three times, each in a little different way. For Maui, I think there’s enough to do that you should just spend a full week there, and come back another time to…
A Weekend in New York City
If you’ve been to NYC and done all of the usual touristy things, or if you’re just looking for some different things to do in NYC, this post is for you! This itinerary is from a fall weekend girls trip, and includes what to do when it’s rainy too; we had a FULL day of…
2 Days in Flagstaff, AZ
Flagstaff has something to offer all throughout the year… hiking in spring, cooler temperatures in summer, beautiful colors in fall, and skiing in the winter. All just two hours North of Phoenix! It’s a great destination for a quick day trip or a weekend, and could be combined with a visit to the Grand Canyon,…
