Weird Activities and Awkward Encounters at home and abroad
This isn’t going to be some long thought out post, but I was so excited by my latest discovery of Tui Fly that I needed to share. If you’ve read my post in the past, you know how much I love a low cost European carrier. I’ve flown them to the U.K. and Scandinavia, and…
I just returned from Tbex Cancun yesterday and I figured I should write this while I’m still on a little bit of a travel high. If you read my previous post you know that I was a little nervous going into something like this alone. My blog is approaching it’s first year, but that’s still…
Ok, so everyone knows about drinking around the world at Epcot, (of course I have plenty to say about that too) but it seems few people have caught on to the Loop. The Loop is another way to drink at Disney, it’s a collection of hotels you can stop at on the monorail at Walt…
Everyone knows a Disney World Vacation is going to set you back financially, but it’s the most magical place on earth. Who can put a price tag on that? Well Disney can, and it’s a lot. Here are a few magical things you can do at Disney World for free (or almost free). It’s great…
Let’s face it, no matter how “cheap” you try to go, travel is expensive. It’s important to maximize your travel investment. It’s an investment in yourself and one of the few investments you can make with a guarantied payoff, albeit not a monetary one. I’ve personally never regretting a single penny spent on traveling,…
DFDS Seaways runs two ferries from Copenhagen to Oslo (among other routes), the Crown and the Pearl.

For the two of us, plane or train tickets would have been a little cheaper and faster, but once you factor…
I recently discovered while browsing through the Barclaycard Travel Community, Norwegian Air Shuttle. They fly out of a handful of American cities; New York JFK, Oakland/San Francisco, Los Angeles, Fort Lauderdale, and best of all, Orlando! Norwegian Air Shuttle is the first low cost air carrier to fly direct from the US to Scandinavia. A…
Wanderlust sets in pretty quickly after I return home from a trip. Unfortunately, Africa cleaned me out financially for a bit, not to mention the fact that it’s recital season and my directors would be none too happy about me leaving until after the mid-June show. Knowing I’m stuck here, even if it is just…
I love making airport friends. Everyone has a story. They’re coming from somewhere and going to somewhere, and best of all every conversation has an expiration date. You can talk about anything you want and know that you’ll probably never have to see these people again. There’s a literal “plane to catch.” One of my…
About six months ago, around the time this blog was born, I was dabbling in the exciting world of airline miles. I read others accounts of travel hacking and credit card churning.
