Micah and I kept our eyes peeled as our Tundra Buggy bounced along bumpy trails created by the military in the 1950’s. The buggy was over 10 feet off the ground with 5.5-foot-high tires; it looked like a giant monster truck version of a school...
Peering over the edge of the window, I looked down at white sand and aqua waters. If I didn’t know better, I’d think we were flying through the Caribbean. In reality, that couldn’t have been much further from the truth. Where were we? We were...
Slovenia is a country full of outdoor adventures, historic cities, and adorable villages. At only 7,827 square miles in size (roughly the same size as Massachusetts), Slovenia is a small country. But just because its small, it doesn’t mean that there is nothing to do....

Fairbanks is often regarded as one of the best places to see the northern lights, not only in Alaska and the United States but the world. So, it only made sense when we returned to Alaska for another winter visit, that we made searching for...
On our last day in Fairbanks, Alaska, we decided that we were going on an adventure. It didn’t matter that it was -29°F (-33°C) because we were ready to go snowmobiling at the North Pole. Okay…well we weren’t actually heading to the geographic North Pole, but...
After spending the night in a hotel made of ice, we decided we still had room for a bit more adventure. It was our last full day in Quebec, Canada, and we were spending the night at Hotel Valcartier, which is home to the Hotel...
