Travel & Lifestyle Videos

The first videos I ever made were in high school. I made them as a way to document memories and have fun with friends when we went out (even if it was just to grab a bite to eat and then go to the midnight 

Travel Outtakes: Hawaiʻi  & St. John

Travel Outtakes: Hawaiʻi & St. John

To conclude this segment of my “travel outtakes” series (click here to see the previous posts in the series), I went with a tropical theme for anyone who has recently caught themselves daydreaming of island life (me!). Today, I will be sharing pictures that did 

Travel Outtakes: South Africa

Travel Outtakes: South Africa

For this round of travel outtakes (click here for the first round), I wanted to share photos that did not make the cut for the original blog post I wrote about our honeymoon in South Africa. Just as I did in my previous post, I 

Travel Outtakes: Greece

Travel Outtakes: Greece

During our COVID-19 quarantine, I have been looking through old travel photos in an attempt to distract myself and reminisce about happy times. I have found that looking through old photos has helped me a lot, so I wanted to share some travel outtakes for

Christmastime in NYC 2019

Happy New Year! Can you believe it’s 2020!? While I know we are already in January of the new year, I just had to post about when J and I were in New York last month. Before our trip, J and I had not been 

Safari in Sabi Sands | South Africa 2019

Safari in Sabi Sands | South Africa 2019

The last stop on our amazing South African honeymoon was going on safari in Sabi Sands. Sabi Sands borders Kruger National Park and encompasses a number of safari lodges and reserves. J and I stayed at Arathusa Safari Lodge, which I could not recommend more. 

Johannesburg | South Africa 2019

Johannesburg | South Africa 2019

We only spent one full day in Johannesburg, but we jammed it full of activities. Animal-related activities. The centers and sanctuaries that we went to in Johannesburg play a large role in the protection and conservation of the animals they housed. While I still have 

Cape Town | South Africa 2019

Cape Town | South Africa 2019

Our next stop on our South African adventure was Cape Town. We stayed at a hotel that was right on the waterfront and was just a short walk away from all the shops and restaurants. We got our best souvenir shopping done on the waterfront

Franschhoek | South Africa 2019

Whenever I tell people that we chose South Africa for our honeymoon, I’m always asked, “why South Africa?” and “did both of you want to go to South Africa?” I never understood this. Why NOT South Africa?! J and I have lists of places we

This spring, J and I took a road trip to Culpeper for a wedding. Since we were only there for one full day, we decided to spend our time before the wedding exploring Culpeper. We started our morning walking around downtown Culpeper with a group

Milos | Greece 2018

Sadly, our adventures in Greece had to come to an end, but I have to say, there was no better way to conclude our journey around the Cyclades than with a few days in Milos. As far as sightseeing goes, we went to see the 

Santorini | Greece 2018

Santorini | Greece 2018

These are the pictures you’ve been waiting for, right? Here they are! This is beautiful Santorini in all its glory. Honestly, Santorini is everything you would expect it to be: beautiful views, clear water, white buildings with blue rooftops, etc. etc. But isn’t that also 

Naxos | Greece 2018

Naxos | Greece 2018

After Athens, we headed to our first Greek island: Naxos. Out of all the islands in the Cyclades, Naxos made the cut because we wanted to go somewhere a little off the beaten path. We wanted an island that was known to be beautiful, had

Happy New Year, everyone! Long time no write. Don’t worry, I am hoping to be more active here in 2019 . . . we have a lot of fun things planned! In the meantime, I wanted to write about our most recent trip to Greece.
