My daughter and I have always dreamed of traveling Switzerland by train and hiking through the Alps–it was a trip of a lifetime!
We try and get to the Colorado Rocky Mountains every summer. I grew up in Denver, so we also love to spend time here and visit with friends and family.
I travelled to Kenya on a volunteer experience for 2 weeks and worked at an orphanage, but while I was there I was able to travel and experience so much of the culture. 4 of the days were spent doing travelling and experiencing Kenya
We made reservations at the Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite Natl. Park a year in advance, a place we had always wanted to travel to as a family. We designed a four-state road trip around this dream destination, beginning in Bozeman, Montana, and ending in Lake Tahoe, California.
A quick weekend getaway at the beginning of spring break before driving down to San Diego!
I visited this area on vacation through a package offered by Dolphin Blue Paradise, an eco-resort on the coast of Isla San Cristobal. My itinerary included two nights in Casco Viejo, Panama City, and four nights at Dolphin Blue Paradise.
Our family was considering buying a condo in Scottsdale and we wanted to get to know the area a bit better and see some Bucket List worthy locations in AZ.
I am studying abroad for the semester in San Sebastián, Spain! There is a group of Santa Clara kids that came with me and we decided we needed a weekend getaway with some sun after a rainy week in San Seb.
I chose a weekend getaway in these three locations because Portugal is in close proximity to Spain, and my best friend and I wanted to do a little trip together. We chose to see Lisbon as it is a city destination where we know a few other students studying abroad, and I recommended Sintra as I went there a few years back and absolutely adored it. Nazaré is a bucket list place that I've always wanted to visit to see the world-famous surfing waves and picturesque cliffs. Portugal isn't too big so we could hop around from place to place.
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.
We wanted to ski the legendary snow of Utah and share this experience with great family friends!
We wanted to enjoy some skiing as a family so we decided to take a quick ski vacation between Christmas Day and New Years to wonderful Snowmass, Colorado.
My husband and I spent our honeymoon here 20 years ago and wanted to share our love for Hawaii with our children.
We were very happy our college-age daughters’ spring break aligned with ours. Special family trip to a part of Mexico we have never enjoyed before–the paradise of Holbox!
Our sons were taking a finance course at Fordham University, Bronx campus. While they stayed with my roomie's family, we moms treated ourselves to a beautiful NYC experience!

Slow Travel & Local Connection
