They say “time flies when you are having fun”, and that saying has never rung more true than when you marry your best friend. It feels like yesterday that Joseph and I tied the knot on a sunny, warm day in March, and yet here we are, celebrating out two year wedding anniversary…

Have you ever seen the movie “Cars”? I felt as though I had stepped into the desert around Radiator Springs when I saw the beautiful landscape of Sedona, Arizona. Our friends Taylor and Kate have a time-share in Sedona, and they invited Joseph and I to tag along on the ultimate desert mountain biking trip…

After months of craziness, wedding planning, work, and everything in between, Joseph and I were looking forward to a quiet, relaxing honeymoon. A little getaway with just the two of us was exactly what we needed…

One of my favorite things about living where I am in Southern California, is that I am only about an hour’s drive from Joshua Tree National Park. The area around the national park has a few small town gems I have discovered, and I recently took a day to explore them…

There is no more magical place to enjoy the Holiday season than in a small town in New Hampshire. I recently spent three days exploring the countryside of the Monadnock Region to see all the Christmasy things the region had to offer…

One of my favorite cities in New Hampshire is the coastal town of Portsmouth. It’s brimming with historic charm, little shops, restaurants, and little cafes tucked into alleyways. And this time of year everything is trimmed with festive garland, and the tree has been decorated and places in the square…

At the start of fall my mom and I took a little 2 night trip up to Acadia National Park to visit the beautiful Terramor Outdoor Resort. If you like luxury while still getting into nature, this glamping spot is made for you…

It’s a little under a month until I head home to NH, and my feelings couldn’t be more mixed. I wish I had 3 more months here, but at the same time, the thought of being home in New England sounds wonderful…

As you rise above the desert of San Bernardino, and head up the curvy mountain road of Route 18, you start to feel as though you are ascending into another world. You rise above the SoCal smog and are greeted by pines and fir trees thick along the the mountainside…

I grew up in SoCal, but for some reason or other, had never spent any time in Santa Barbara. This trip was the first time, and I cannot tell you how much I fell in love with this city. The weather was perfect, the people were friendly, there were endless places to go, shop, eat…

One of the most magnificent natural wonders of this world is Yosemite Valley in California. It is a hiker and climbers paradise, and attracts millions of people from around the world every year to take in all its glory…

I’ve been working on the farm up here in the mountains in Southern CA, and am starting to settle into my summer life here. I finally get my rental car next week, and will be mobile, at which point I think everything will feel official…

I’m starting my trip off with a bang doing California right: surfing. Surfers have always been so cool to me, and I always enjoyed watching them from afar…but I was very unsure about trying it myself. I might be an adventurous person, but all my life I have had a fear of the ocean…

I started off my summer adventure in California with a week long detour to the Pacific-Northwest where my parents and I visited with my brother Alexander, his wife India, and their lovable dog Shasta. We enjoyed fun activities such as going out on the lake in their boat and tubing, skate surfing along the ocean walk in Bellingham, getting baked goods all about town, and visiting the beautiful, nearby islands!

For those of you who don’t know, I am currently in California, where I will be living for the next 3 months. I am working a fun job at my friend’s farm for the summer, and plan on using my days off to explore and go on fun day trips around SoCal…

The other day I grabbed a basket bag, my camera, some butterscotch chocolate caramels, and headed into Boston with my mom for a lovely girl’s day out! Aside from an airport run, this has been the first time since the start of the pandemic that we have been in Boston…

It has been a dream of mine to stay at Edson Hill for several years now, and my dream finally came true this winter. My expectations were high going in, and were met above-and-beyond all the way through the stay…

Tucked away in northern-most Vermont is the small, Alpine-inspired town of Stowe. The Von Trapp Family built their lodge there, and the style took off. Cabins and motels were built with an alpine twist, and now the whole town is a blend of the New England countryside and quaint Austrian chalets. It’s a whimsical, little place…

“Vermont should be beautiful this time of year…all that snow…”. The classic line from White Christmas is all you can think about when you pull up to the gorgeous White Doe Farm, blanketed in snow, and looking perfectly Christmasy and cozy…

Now that the holidays are upon us, and the air gets a familiar chill; our minds start to turn to the cozy comforts of the season…hot chocolate, very importantly, being one of them…
