Rick and I have been traveling together for many years now and have found our rhythm as a traveling couple, we understand what each other needs when it comes to traveling, and we know our roles when we’re planning travel. But it’s taken many trips and many years to find our groove. While travel is
We’re so excited to head off to Canada in a few weeks. I’m sure my Minnesota accent will make a strong reappearance after our time there! Though I have to confess, though I lived right below the Great White North, I’ve never ventured over the border… until now that is! We’ll be heading off to

When we went to Portugal last spring, we made our home base in Lisbon and booked a day trip out to Sintra. I’ll be honest and say that Rick and I did not do much planning for this trip and kind of just went along for the ride with what my family wanted to do,
I’ll never turn down the opportunity to explore France and expand my knowledge of the country, its customs, and of course indulge in its amazing food and wine scene. And I’m not the only one who thinks this way. France is consistently one of the top-rated travel destinations in Europe – and for good reason!
It’s Bastille Day, the commemorative holiday of the storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789, and the launch of the French Revolution.
