My cousin was playing professional American Football in Aix En Provence, France and so I went to visit him and took a small trip to Paris beforehand.
To explore Paris, Florence, Rome and Tuscany, and visit with our daughter who was studying abroad.
I traveled to Paris to fulfill a longtime dream of mine: taking a pastry course in the city that is world-famous for its desserts. At the same time, I wanted to explore Paris and experience its culture, food, and atmosphere.
We wanted to choose the quieter places. To step away from big cities and famous capitals, and instead follow a route shaped by small towns, winding roads, and landscapes that slow you down without asking.
This journey wasn’t about ticking boxes. It was about crossing borders gently, watching architecture change, hearing languages shift, and feeling how each place carries its own rhythm. Castles on hills, canals through old towns, lakes reflecting mountains—each stop felt like part of the same story.
We wanted a trip that felt romantic in its own way: calm but rich, simple but deeply beautiful. And this route gave us exactly that.
Paris definitely felt nevitable. A city we had all imagined for years but never properly experienced. Art, food, long walks, and that quiet promise of getting lost in a place where every street feels familiar even on your first visit.
This trip wasn’t about slowing down or doing Paris “the right way.” It was about seeing as much as we could, walking until our legs gave up, sharing croissants on random corners, and letting the city overwhelm us—in the best possible way.
Paris felt like the perfect place for that kind of chaos.
France seemed like a romantic place to spend our honeymoon.
A Thanksgiving visit to see our daughter studying abroad in Spain.
After living in a city abroad, I felt like I needed a dose of mountain. My friend from my summer job in Colorado was visiting me in Spain and going to Italy after, so we decided to hop over to France in between to do what we love to do best together-- hiking.
My son was studying his Spring semester of college in Amsterdam and we wanted to go visit for Spring Break. We had a limited amount of time (given we also had a senior in high school) and we wanted/needed a trip that took us to places we have never seen (I had been to Europe before, but my youngest son/husband had not), made the best use of our time with our son studying abroad (we wanted to go places with him he had not been), and where we didn't need multiple wardrobes (to cut down on packing). It was quite a planning challenge! But, my husband was up for the task and everything I am sharing he planned - it was nothing short of perfect!
A dream getaway with my husband for a first-time trip to the city of lights!
I graduated college in 2022 and the way that COVID timed out, our graduating class never got to go abroad. My group of friends still wanted the chance to travel abroad so we planned a 3 week European girls trip following our graduation in May!
Our family loves skiing and is always looking for a new destination. Matterhorn is one of the most majestic mountains in the world so we thought it was a must see!
My 14 year-old daughter and I were excited to take a mother-daughter trip to Europe. We chose London, Paris and Rome for the amazing site-seeing, culture, history and of course the food!

I first fell in love with idea of visiting Barcelona when I watched the movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona as as teenager. I was entranced by the beautiful, unique culture and the architecture of Antoni Gaudí. When the day finally came to plan my bachelorette trip, I knew exactly where I'd like to go with my three best friends.
