To go to the beautiful paradise of Croatia without venturing off the mainland onto one of it’s many islands would be a crime. Choosing which one we wanted to visit was a tough decision but eventually we landed on Korcula. It is one of Croatia’s quieter, less party-influenced islands and we are so happy that …
Our last stop before departing the Emerald Isle was the lovable city of Galway. It was a recurring conversation throughout our five weeks in Ireland for Galway to be highly praised and recommended by locals and fellow tourists/ Workaway friends alike. Between its easy walkability, music-filled cobblestone streets, and surprisingly delicious eats, it did not …

After wandering through several stalls in the medina, I finally found the perfect pair of pants for our camel trek in the Merzouga Desert. But the asking price was absurd. I tried to haggle with the man to a more reasonable cost but he acted insulted. A few minutes of going back and forth later, …

With our trip around the world immediately following our wedding, we are calling this our “one year honeymoon.” Well, nothing quite screams “honeymoon” like a set of bunk beds residing in what I could only assume was a former closet. Myself, not doing the typical backpacking through Europe after college and not ever staying in …

We had the pleasure of spending the day in Dublin before taking the train westward. This isn’t your typical museum, parks, and Guinness Open Gate tour itinerary. We did make it to a few touristy spots, but mostly we were just focused on eating and drinking our way through this Irish city. We arrived late …

The van was slowly bump, bump, bumping its way down the back alley. We were passing by a herd of goats to the left and two little boys play fighting in front of us. Matt and I looked at each other and with only our eyes communicating, we secretly wondered where exactly this van was …

The little town Sedella, with just over 600 inhabitants in the Andalusia region of Spain, sits in the foothills of the Sierra Tejedra mountains, about an hour and a half drive from Malaga. Megan and I got to spend 3 weeks here enjoying everything this special place has to offer. For the first 2 weeks …

Climbing slowly up the stone path from the yoga center, he looked up at me with tired eyes and let out an audible groan. He was still too far below for me to tell if the smile he was wearing was for his appreciation of a job well done or just a gasp for oxygen. …

A very sold out Alhambra, many closed businesses for spring break, and a true adventure seeking parking in the city. These were all harsh reminders that Matt and I make excellent vacationers but are still on the journey to becoming experienced backpackers. Our vacations always come with a solid plan and bookings made well in …

The wind was howling, begging for a fight with my freshly curled hair. The smoke from the fire was doing its best to blind us both, and the bitter cold pierced through our skin like a thousand little icicle needles. Despite the elements, nothing could detract from the happiness we felt standing on that Icelandic …
