I’ve been on a hiatus recently. There have been a lot of personal changes. Work became crazy and then there was a move but I’m back at it again. Some of the articles you can look forward to on this blog are travel product reviews and I’m going to start putting together trip itineraries. 3-5 days in length. Where would…
I cannot believe that the final season of Game of Thrones is here! What a better way to bring in the new season then to take you on a tour of some of the sites where the show was shot in Ireland. When we were in Ireland last spring my friend Kay and I looked for a tour to take…
Continuing to highlight Ireland this month I thought I would share the castles of Ireland I came across in my travels. Castles hold a bit of fascination for me.

Which led me to wonder…do other people have playlists for places they’ve traveled to? Soundtracks of your life? London will always have a constant…
My first visit to Ireland was three years ago. I had heard mixed reviews from friends and relatives. It was either a love or hate of this country. I can tell you from the first visit for me it was indifferent. Is Ireland beautiful? Of course. Is it charming? Most definitely. Did I want to go back? I wasn’t sure.…

Temperatures didn’t go above 30 degrees Ferinheit but that didn’t keep us from exploring the city and taking advantage of what Stockholm had to offer. Here’s why you should consider visiting this Nordic city in the winter. Everything is a little cozier Although it…
This year I met friends in Copenhagen to explore and celebrate the New Year. Before this trip, I had only spent the New Year in the States.
