Glacier National Park – Part I

For the last few years, my group of high school friends and I have picked a national park to visit during the summer. It’s been a way for us all to connect and see each other at least once a year since we’re now flung all over the country (and one living in London most…

What to Pack for the Grand Canyon in the Winter

Hello friends! I know winter is coming to an end, but I figured I would post a winter packing list anyway. If you’re planning on heading to the Grand Canyon in the winter, it can be hard to know what to pack. Also, if you’re thinking of going to the Grand Canyon, I highly recommend…

Arizona Photo Round Up

The sun had just began to sink down into the sky when the four of us walked up to Mathers Point to see the Grand Canyon. I could see the tips of the red-orange rock as we walked closer, and my excitement grew. Laying my eyes upon the Grand Canyon felt like discovering a long-forgetten…

Road Trip Essentials

I love to be in the car, although not for an extended period of time. Nothing beats staring out the window and listening to music while taking in those highway sights. Since my family lives a decent amount of time away, I now consider myself a road trip expert. Hours spent in the car have…

There is no shortage of bright colors in the Bahamas. Turqoise water, bright green palm trees and pink houses make up the main colors of the islands.

What to Pack for a Week in the Bahamas

There is something enjoyable about packing to me. I’m not sure what it is that I love about it so much–making the list, checking things off as I go, or the action of packing itself. But packing is always something I look forward to when going on a trip. This time is no different, of…

Where to Go in Atlanta, Georgia

Ah, Atlanta. City of street art, Coca-Cola and good food. I loved my time here, back in March. It’s taken me *forever* to get around to creating this post, but I always love looking back on my time here. What you need to know before traveling to Atlanta:

Packing for Atlanta, Georgia in the Spring

Atlanta is beautiful in the spring. I was there in late March, and we had sunny days in the high 50s and 60s. We were lucky with the great weather, but it does get rainy in the spring down south. This packing list depends on what you’re trying to do while you’re there, also. Either…
