First Timer’s Guide to Dublin – When Short on Time

First Timer’s Guide to Dublin – When Short on Time

  First Timer's Guide to Dublin - When Short on Time: I smiled when I read that National Geographic nicknamed Dublin "Europe's largest village" and had made their List of Places You Need to Visit in 2018 . After having just visited here in December - we totally agree! Dublin’s got a youthful, energetic, small town college vibe – which is amazing because there are 1.2 million people who live there.  The best part about Dublin is that the people are friendly, the historic part of town is very ... continue reading...

How to Be a Savvy Traveler and Not a Tacky Tourist

How to Be a Savvy Traveler and Not a Tacky Tourist

So, do you know how to be a savvy traveler and not a tacky tourist? I used to be what I (laughingly) refer to as a tacky tourist. I'm sure you know the type - the tacky tourist is a tornado rushing through their trip snapping pictures, buying super cheap (quality) souvenirs (not even made locally), then leaves. They make no effort to get to know the area they are traveling to, and can't be bothered to speak to the locals because they are in such a hurry. Oh. And they love to over-pack. Does ... continue reading...

After many years of traveling I have experienced my fair share of vacation stress.

While I have loads of other tips I would love to share, I feel that these 6 tips are without a doubt, THE most important. Here are my 6 travel tips for having a ... continue reading...

Morning walk in Vienna. Every turn is a beautiful Morning walk in Vienna. Every turn is a beautiful sight. In search of coffee and sour cherry strudel from Sluka .... 😍😍❤️
❤️ Sweeping view of the Chain Bridge and the P ❤️ Sweeping view of the Chain Bridge and the Pest side of Budapest from Castle Hill! Can you spot the Viking Longship Vilhjalm docked next to the bridge (left)? Heck yeah! We’re on it. What hotel can top this view and location? For those of you who don’t know, the buildings of Budapest are all lit up at night and are spectacularly beautiful! First night tip: stroll across the bridge in the eve after dinner, then when back on ship grab some Palinka (beware it is strong stuff) and head up to the top deck to take in all the lights and sounds of Budapest.  Great first night on our Danube Waltz river cruise. Pretty cool xoxo 😘 .

❤️ Budapest’s Matthias Church on Castle Hill ❤️ Budapest’s Matthias Church on Castle Hill! Don’t you think the vivid colors and pattern of the tiles on the roof are STUNNING? I don’t think a picture does it justice. Must see in person! 😋 The interior is equally stunning, by the way, and we were so lucky to have such gorgeous weather during our visit. Budapest was the first stop on our Viking Danube Waltz Cruise. What better accommodations than a ship with waterfront views docked literally next to the Chain Bridge? .
