After a visit to Edinburgh with one day in the Highlands, we were dying to see more of the Scottish countryside! We decided we wanted to road trip for the freedom to visit smaller towns and to stop and take in the views whenever we felt like it.
Everything on the Isle of Skye.Afternoon tea (several times)Our little cottage in PlocktonThe coast at Oban
We arrived in Edinburgh, rented a car, and immediately hit the road! Our first destination was the seaside town of Oban. On the way, we stopped by Loch Lomond, in the tiny town of Luss. We stopped for a short waterfall hike and a cup of tea before hitting the road again. We arrived in Oban just in time to check into our little seaside bed and breakfast, and for a dinner of fish and chips.

We wanted to visit the coast of Italy, near the Cinque Terre but not IN the Cinque Terre, to avoid the crowds and high prices. We happened to find an amazing apartment in Portovenere (sometimes known as the sixth Cinque Terre town) and decided to make that our home base.
We were living in Budapest and needed to leave for visa reasons. We'd heard such amazing things about Romania, and decided to road trip through Transylvania!
It was my mother's first trip to France, and as a big World War II buff, we knew she would want to see the D-Day Beaches in Normandy. Bayeux is an ideal base to explore Normandy, and survived much of the war relatively unscathed, meaning it has a well-preserved medieval center. A good place to stay to explore further, and a place to visit in its own right!
Big Cedar Lodge is America's Premier Wilderness Luxury Resort, and it lives up to it's name! We return here year after year to enjoy Winter/Spring in the Ozarks! Big Cedar Lodge has endless activities, many top-tier restaurants and a lovely spa, just to name a few of the perks!
We started our Italy trip in Rome and knew we wanted to explore the south of Italy. Our plan was to make it all the way around the boot and then end in Sicily, a place my boyfriend has wanted to see for a while. We ended up skipping most of the boot because there was a really easy overnight ferry from Naples to Palermo. So off to Sicily we went!
I’d always been fascinated by the ancient Mayan culture, so visiting the iconic ruins overlooking the Caribbean Sea was at the top of my list. I also wanted to unwind on Tulum’s beautiful beaches and explore its magical cenotes hidden in the jungle. It was the ideal destination to connect with nature, dive into a rich cultural past, and enjoy the tropical sunshine.
