After a much delayed and heavy turbulent flight, we made it to Hanoi! A big city with lots and lots of life! We’ll preface this blog post with the fact that we were in Hanoi, Vietnam’s capital, over Reunification Day, the day North and South Vietnam became one again. It’s like being in the US […]
A man we met on the plane told us we were starting our trip into Asia the right way with Bali being the first stop. He said it’ll be a nice introduction to Asia. (Technically we’ve been to Asia, but we consider India its own sub-continent) He called it “Soft Asia” and that the weather […]
Chiang Mai, the land of MANY temples! The “city” (if you want to call it that, more of a densely populated town) of Chiang Mai is surrounded by a moat and we were told the best area to stay was within it. We ended up in a seemingly perfect location, although it seemed like […]

They weren’t kidding about Thailand. It really is paradise here! Our first stop was Krabi, more specifically Ao Nang Beach. We chose this spot initially because it was in the zone of “free pick up” for the ferry to Phuket. Not knowing anything about this area when booking, except for the fact that they […]
We went back and forth…The logical thing to do when heading to London from Strasbourg would be to take the train to Paris Gare de l’Est then transfer to the Eurostar. But what fun is that?! We had family to visit in Germany anyway! So we were off! We left the beautiful French Alsace region […]
When figuring out where we should go to celebrate my big 30th birthday, we set (almost!) no limits. First idea was Paris because, well, it’s Paris! As the cooler months started to settle in, however, a warmer and more tropical location became the more obvious choice. Where though?! Bahamas? Turks and Caicos? All inclusive or […]

Cambodia has completely surprised us. We thought it was going to be super 3rd world. Old cars, run down roads and tiny shops… nothing more than the famous Angkor Wat. Boy were we wrong and we’re incredibly happy about it! First impression, the airport is gorgeous! Big, modern and clean! We expected something similar […]

We’re not much of the “action/adventure” type, so when trying to figure out what we wanted to do while in New Zealand we had to decide what was important! Since you’re probably familiar with our style now, it should be no surprise that we decided on good food, good wine and amazing views. We hopped […]
Sick of airports and flying, we decided to take a train from Paris to Berlin. We figured between the ride to the airport, getting there early, flying, waiting for luggage and traveling to our hotel, the 8 hour train ride would take just about the same time as flying and would drop us off in […]

Maybe if we’d come here straight from Australia, before seeing the rest of Asia, we’d be more impressed? Don’t get me wrong, we were both in awe that we were in Tokyo, a place we’d been dreaming of for so long! The lights are bright and the city (rather, all of them!) are bustling heavily […]
