One of my favorite ways to tour a country is by road tripping. I enjoy the freedom of going anywhere at any time, not being held to someone else’s schedule. When the #AdventurePartnerForLife and I started planning for our northern Italy road trip, however, we came across a couple of things that weren’t typical for […]
The #AdventurePartnerForLife and I have traveled to Italy a few times. I actually lived in Naples as a kid, but really only remember the basics. So, it’s nice to go back. Italy is one of the few countries we’ve been to more than once. For us, returning somewhere means forgoing the opportunity to explore a […]
When most people think of Greece, they think of the Greek Islands—Mykonos, Crete, Santorini. They think of white houses with blue shutters on a hilltop, a sunset in the background. And it’s truly beautiful. But, if all you see are the islands when visiting, you’re missing out on all the amazing things to do on […]
All Around the Isle of Skye Oh, so many ferries this trip. Not so many once we get into the Scottish Highlands, though. First ferry of the day required no booking. We arrived five minutes before the next one was set to take off and they had room for another car, so we made it […]
Road-Tripping Scotland to Islay Had to wake up very early to get to the ferry terminal after my very non-baronial night’s sleep. We learned only by chance that you had to book tickets in advance when one of our hotels emailed us to let us know and then our original ferry time got cancelled and […]
Driving Around the Faroe Islands Yaaasss. I finally slept in! And I slept really well. Desperately needed. We got a late start and barely made breakfast time, but it was so worth it. Jeff learned earlier that morning that all the Faroe Islands ferries to Mykines, the puffin island, were cancelled for the day due […]
Faroe Islands, Here We Come! Oh my God. For such an awesome room upgrade, sleeping on last night’s mattress was like sleeping on concrete. But, I’m super excited to be visiting the Faroe Islands! I did not sleep well. Drunk sleep (you know, the totally non-restorative kind), rock-hard mattress, jet lag. I’m completely exhausted today. […]
Airport Adventures to Glasgow Ah, travel days. The best thing everrr. Nevertheless, a means to an end. Just think: I will be in Scotland… on vacation… in just a few hours. We’re headed into Glasgow before some Edinburgh sightseeing. NOTE: THIS POST HAS BEEN SPONSORED AND/OR CONTAINS AFFILIATE LINKS THROUGH WHICH I EARN A COMMISSION […]
Well, well, well… what have we here? The abandoned Hotel Monte Palace in São Miguel, Azores. This hotel there would be the perfect place to stay, but for the fact it’s completely falling apart. It’s actually perched on a mountaintop overlooking the super picturesque Sete Cidades lagoon and offers some of the best views on […]
So… Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and romance is in the air. Imagine yourself strolling the streets of Paris or Rome, canoodling, wining, and dining with your special someone under the sunset. They’re both beautiful places that exude romance, but how about some lesser-known options for your romantic weekend getaways? Global Debauchery gives […]
