Jumping right into a culture and exploring its cuisine is one of our favorite ways to start a trip to a new destination, and that’s exactly what we did when we visited Taipei, Taiwan. Our first night in town, we went on the Taipei Night...
Our tiny cabin dangled from a cable as we stared through the clear glass on the floor. We rose up, higher and higher, towards the lush, green mountains. The floor to ceiling windows gave us views of towering skyscrapers mixed with rugged mountains. We were...
Last year for my birthday, my mom asked me what I wanted. I told her that all I wanted was to take her on a trip with me (something I’ve been trying to do for years!), and I was so excited when she agreed. We...
We stayed in a couple of unique accommodations while we were in Quebec City, Canada. One was the Hotel de Glace, North America’s only Ice Hotel, and the other one was a monastery called Le Monastère des Augustines. Why would you sleep in a monastery, you...

Our time in Taipei, Taiwan, was filled with one delicious bite after the next. We noshed on a wide range of eats and left with quite a few dishes that we are still craving to this day. Some of our absolute favorites were the fried...
Taiwan has always intrigued me. When I was little, I only knew of the country because of the “Made in Taiwan” imprint on my toys. I always wondered where this place called Taiwan was. As I grew older, I slowly learned more about the fascinating...
