24 hours in Leavenworth

Leavenworth wine

Back in August I went on a girls’ trip to Seattle with some friends and we decided a little road trip was in order so we found ourselves heading toward Leavenworth. Leavenworth is about two and a half hours from Seattle and located in the beautiful Cascades region. It’s a charming Bavarian village that goes

Pike Place Market

Back in August I went on a super fun girls’ getaway with my friends from high school and we found ourselves exploring Seattle. Luckily one of my friends gets to call Seattle home so we were able to save on accommodations and stay with her, which meant we had more funds to go sightseeing in

Kihei, Maui

Rick and I had the pleasure of spending about a week on Maui to take advantage of our remote work schedules as well as check off another Hawaiian Island off our travel bucket list. We had looked at staying at a resort in Lahaina or Wailea but ended up booking an Airbnb in Kihei to

24 hours in Madrid

Streets in Madrid

Ah, Madrid, the sunny capital of Spain! While we highly recommend planning more than a day here, if you find yourself with a long layover or just want to add a quick overnight trip to the capital as you explore other amazing travel destinations in Spain, it’s well worth it. There are so many things

24 hours in Honolulu

Diamond Head in Honolulu

Sun-kissed beaches, a giant volcano, and tourists learning how to surf all await in Honolulu. While many make Honolulu their final travel destination when heading off to Hawaii, sometimes it’s just a stopover on the way to another island. Another way to add Honolulu to your Hawaii travel itinerary is by making a day trip

24 hours in Brussels

Brussels Town Square

Chocolate, waffles, beer, and a little statue of a boy peeing (aptly named Manneken Pis), that’s what I knew about Brussels before traveling there. And I was not disappointed by any of the chocolate, waffles, beer, nor my sighting of Manneken Pis dressed up in a little suit. Brussels is such a fun travel destination

Scottsdale, AZ

Arizona is without a doubt my happy place and I’d be happy to spend any amount of time in the state, even if it’s just a day. Growing up, my grandparents wintered just outside of Phoenix and so every spring break my sister and I would go stay with them and enjoy a break from

Golden Gate Bridge

Home to “the crookedest street in the world,” an amazing Chinatown, the Golden Gate Bridge, and enough hills to give your calves a good workout, San Francisco is a real treat to visit – even if you only have a day there! While 24 hours isn’t enough to do San Francisco justice, sometimes you have

New Orleans, LA

The home of Mardi Gras, jazz, and vampires, there’s no other city quite like New Orleans! It’s a must-see for any traveler at some point, even if you only have a day in the city. New Orleans, also known as NOLA or the Crescent City, dates back more than 300 years with French and Spanish

24 hours in Salida

Truck in Salida, CO

Rick and I recently went down to Salida, Colorado with my family for a little staycation and getaway from home. We had been in the town one time before as we stopped here for lunch on a trip down to Durango, but this was our first time spending a day and overnight in Salida.  We
