Last summer, I told you why Busch Gardens Williamsburg was the perfect DINK summer destination. During our Memorial Day visit to the Tampa Bay area, we spent a day at Busch Gardens Tampa. While BG Williamsburg is definitely a beautiful park, Tampa has them beat in one area: really, awesome animals. Know if you go… [...]
Exploring Queensland By Train – What I Would Do in Five Days in Queensland
When I was younger, whenever the subject came up (in that 4th grade kind of way that these things do), I would tell anyone who would listen that I was going to go to Australia for my honeymoon. Well, my wedding has come & gone & I’ve still not been to Australia. Although the Mediterranean [...]
Big ol’ DINK Summer Giveaway!
I’m very pleased to announce my very first blog giveaway! I’m giving away some of my favorite DINK travel products just in time to hit the beach for summer vacation. I actually used all these products during our Memorial Day beach visit to Florida, therefore, I can 100% verify their awesome DINK-ness. The winner will [...]
Hotel Review: Hotel Le Germain Maple Leaf Square, Toronto
In keeping with my TBEX tradition started in Vancouver, I knew I wanted to stay at a boutique hotel during my time in Toronto. Hotel Le Germain Maple Leaf Square seemed to fit the bill perfectly: this 2.5 year old, 167 room property (the largest in the Germain family) was conveniently located two minutes from [...]
St. Pete Sunset Series
I’ll argue ’till I’m blue in the face that the Gulf of Mexico/west coast of Florida is superior to the ocean/east coast. How can you argue when the Gulf gives you these amazing sunsets? The sunset below was photographed from 7:56pm – 8:19pm a few weeks ago at Pass-a-Grille Beach. You might also like… Wordless [...]
Hotel Review: ALT Hotel
It was so genius, I’m not sure why I didn’t think of it myself: I was chatting with a friend, lamenting about my decision to take a 6am flight back home from my weekend in Toronto. By our calculations, we determined that I’d have to leave my downtown hotel at about 3:45am to make it [...]
Headed to Toronto
Tonight, I am headed to Toronto for the TBEX (travel blogging) conference. I’m so excited to explore this international city! I’ve been to Toronto once: in sixth grade, my mother & I took a Greyhound bus from Cleveland to Toronto to see a production of the “Phantom of the Opera.” I remember virtually nothing about [...]
Hotel Review: Renaissance Vinoy
The Sunshine State & I have a long history. I lived there a shorter time than I’ve lived anywhere else (only seven years), yet I consider it home. I’m a Gulf Coast girl, through & through (the east coast of Florida never seems to treat me very well). Landing at Tampa International Airport – what [...]
About Me
I'm a D.I.N.K. (Double Income, No Kids). Follow along as B (that would be my husband) & I travel the world, blissfully unburdened by strollers, diaper bags & Elmo-related meltdowns. I'll be the one with my toes dug in the sand, pontificating about my love of NYC, a cup of coffee in one hand, a local craft beer in the other & a camera slung over my shoulder.
Unless noted otherwise, I'm never perk'd or comp'd for any of my reviews. If I am comp'd in any way I promise you honest experiences, honest opinions.
