Planning a trip to South America can be SO exciting! It’s a continent rich in diversity and culture, one that has so much to offer. I had the pleasure of booking a trip to both Ecuador and Peru and I was PUMPED to visit South America for the first time! I had no idea what […]

Salam Morocco! G Adventures Style

Morocco has been a place that has always intrigued me. It all started when I decided I wanted to buy maracas from Morocco, and added it to my 30 before 30 goal list. I soon realized that maracas do NOT come from Morocco, but I still wanted to go anyways. My Instagram feed is full […]

Sometimes life throws you curveballs, and sometimes life just feels so dormant. I’m not used to staying in one spot, I’m normally always on the move… someone once described it that “I never let the grass grow under my feet.” And that felt so true! But lately? I feel like I’m stuck in mud. And […]

Trip of a Lifetime

When I was a young lass, my mother had this great idea to promise my sister and I a trip of a lifetime for our 16th birthday. We had a few years to think about a destination and whatever we chose is where she would take us. Alright. What kid would ever say no to […]

24

When Brooke and I were in middle school and the early years of high school, mom decided to start taking us on “day trips”. She realized that taking us out of school for a long period of time was now frowned upon once we were out of elementary school. So, we would take the first […]

Why I Can’t Stop — And Won’t Stop — Talking About Spain

I realized pretty fast once I was back in the states how much I talked about Spain. Everything someone said I had the response, “Oh my gosh in Spain, they don’t have blah blah blah, it was so crazy!” or “Oh that’s cool, I did that while I was in Spain too!” At first I […]
