“We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us.”

I love travel adventures. Whether it's a couples trip, girls weekend or family vacation, I'm there! I rarely ever say no to traveling somewhere new. Although traveling is a lot of work (especially with kids), a change of scenery, an adventure of finding new food and things to do, see and explore is always worth it. I never want to live a life without travel! Come explore different cities, food and culture with me!

Tip #1 Carry on
When traveling without kids, carry on! I use to think I needed all the things when traveling and would literally pack two suitcases full of stuff. It just makes traveling less enjoyable. Not to mention you don't use half the stuff in your suitcase. Pack less things and more staple pieces that are versatile and that you can wear with different outfits.
Tip #2 Check my top 5 before booking
Different websites have different prices. I check these five apps before booking a vacation rental:
Airbnb, VRBO, Vacasa, Hopper, Booking (booking.com).
I once found a vacation rental I really liked. It was $3,200 on one site and $1,500 for the same rental and dates on another site.

Tip #3 Running late to the airport?
The week before you leave for your trip download the MyTSA app on your phone. Periodically check the app for TSA wait times at the airport you will be departing from. Check during your departure time to get an accurate wait time. It's a great way to not only make sure you make your flight on time, but also to not have to be at the airport 3 hours before your flight leaves! Save time and money!
