New Mexico is a state that has intrigued us for quite some time. White Sands National Monument was the main reason we wanted to visit New Mexico. But, when we started planning our road trip, we found so many other exciting adventures in New Mexico,...
After a winter visit to Anchorage, Alaska, we told ourselves that going forward we weren’t going to any more cold weather destinations in the winter. Yes, we had a blast in Anchorage, but we live in frigid Minnesota. A warm winter escape is almost a...
It was a cold winter day in Minnesota. We were thinking about taking a last-minute break somewhere warm, so I was browsing flights. We had been to Alaska the past two winters, so we weren’t in the mood for another winter to winter escape. I...

Our day in Vienna, Austria, was filled with lights and Christmas markets in every direction. It felt as though we were transported to a fairy tale world with a bundle of festive holiday spirit. When planning our trip around Europe to explore the Christmas markets, our...
