If you want a quick day trip from London, Windsor Castle is the perfect place to visit only a 45-minute train ride away! We’re always looking for day trips and quick weekend visits that will give us a break from the busy city life. Plus, I had the bug too see this majestic castle after viewing the Royal Wedding there just the weekend before. Please

A Weekend in Brugge, Belgium :: Our Top 10 List
How lucky is my husband that he got to turn 30 in Europe?! I knew I wanted to surprise him with an awesome trip because, besides some work clothes, there really wasn’t anything he needed or wanted. And hello, #WhenInEurope! Munich was his dream destination, but we’re headed there for Octoberfest in September, so we struck it out for now. Ireland was another location high on
Harry Potter Studio Tour in London
When my most Harry Potter loving friend came to London as our first visitor with her hubs (also named Ryan), I was super stoked that the Harry Potter Studio Tour in London was her #1 thing to do! Can you blame her with Big Ben and everything else under construction anyway?! We booked our tickets well in advance, back when we lived in the US actually. Make

Vueve Clicquot Champagne House Tour in Champagne, France
Touring the Veuve Clicquot Champagne House was total bucket list goals! I’m so excited to share all about this House founded in 1772 and run by a total #girlboss, the widow Madame Clicquot! We made a decision to try to go to a different country every month we were living abroad, or at least go to 12 countries overall. They didn’t have to be countries
A Quick Trip to Champagne, France
The champagne area of France is only a 45-minute train ride from Paris, so on our second trip to the city recently, it was a no-brainer to visit the town of Reims where the Veuve Cliquot champagne house is located.

Thoughts on Moving to London for a Year
We move to London in six days y’all. SIX DAYS! Naturally, I’m having #AllTheFeels after packing our lives up this weekend in preparation for this move. So here I am, sharing them with you! This blog started as a creative outlet back in 2014 and also as a way to journal and document our lives. I’ve taken breaks, I’ve been on blogging streaks, but it’s
? Our 2018 Travel Bucket List ?
My oh my how 2018 is turning out to already be quite the year. It’s one thing to start it off with what you think is a clear idea of your goals and loose schedule for the year just to have it completely turned on its head in the best possible way. Not going to lie, I’m a little sad I used up my Powersheets
