It took us more than 26 hours of travel to get from Seattle, Washington, USA to Calí, Colombia. From house to house, it took about 30 hours of travel! We left our place in Seattle around 5:30 am the Saturday morning before Christmas. We arrived at Bryce's grandma's house in Calí around 11:30 am Sunday… Continue reading What 26+ hours of travel looks like
Prior to the inception of this blog a month ago, a lot of traveling has occurred! Here is a little round-up of my 2018 adventures. Japan (January) -- I literally rung in the new year in Kamakura, Japan, where my grandma lives. Bryce, my mom and I walked to a nearby temple and rang a… Continue reading 2018 travel year in review
How do you do it? Travel blog while traveling? Even on days when we aren't out doing things all day, I am either too tired, eating or spending time with family (as this trip to Colombia was to mainly visit Bryce's grandma). So, how do you make time to blog while traveling? Do you just… Continue reading Travel blogging while traveling
First things first: It does not feel like Christmas here because I have a dozen mosquito bites up and down my legs and I can't stop sweating! This Pacific Northwest girl is not used to a hot Christmas. Although, Bryce's family has been telling us that it has "cooled off" this week. (My phone says… Continue reading A Cali Christmas
I'm currently sitting in the SFO airport as I wait for our second flight (out of four flights to Colombia). It seems like an appropriate time to get some blogging done. When family heard that Bryce and I planned to go into the city during our eight-hour layover in San Francisco, we received a lot… Continue reading San Francisco: A quick layover story
I don't know what happened to all of my time but the week came to an end and I was scrambling at midnight to pack for my Colombia trip. To clarify, I was packing at midnight for a morning flight where we'd be leaving the house at 4 am! Trying to find all my summer… Continue reading The canceled flight and the two ships crossing in “the night”
I'm not sure when Bryce and I decided to go to New Zealand. When we got engaged at the end of October 2017, obviously everyone wanted to know the who/what/where/whens of the wedding. I more so wanted to get planning on the honeymoon. Once we had the venue locked down, I made sure to constantly… Continue reading Why New Zealand?
Holiday travel can be a fun or stressful time, depending on who you are. I'll be traveling during Christmas time and while this trip to Calí, Colombia* is my next upcoming travel, Bryce and I have been more focused on another trip coming up at the end of January. This one is a trip to… Continue reading Confirming travel plans from a stranger
When I was little, I wanted to be an artist or a teacher. I am in neither of these occupations. Getting rejected by two art majors in college and deciding that I didn't really want to be a teacher, led me to being a journalism major. My first real job out of college was being a newspaper… Continue reading Just another travel blog
