I have visited four Hawaiian islands in total over the past few years and I loved them all, but for different reasons. I love Maui for it’s swimmable waterfalls. I love Kauai for it’s lush greenness. I love the Big Island for the volcanic activity. I love all of them for their beaches. And I […] Read more…
Month Forty Three of Digital Nomad Life was a pretty relaxed one, split between snowy Colorado and hot Hawaii. We started the month with a six day housesit in Littleton, a small town in the south of Denver. The two dogs we were caring for were super sweet and we walked them daily on the […] Read more…
OK, I only went to a couple of places in Louisiana – I didn’t even make it to the State Capital of Baton Rouge – so this Louisiana food guide is by no means extensive, but I ate so many incredible meals in the two places that I did go to in Louisiana – Lafayette […] Read more…
Month Forty One was a full-on month of good old-fashioned roadtripping! We traveled through eight states – seven of which were new to me – on our Southern honeymoon road trip, and even though a fair bit of it we were moving FAST, it was still so much fun. The month started with us exploring […] Read more…
Wow Month Thirty Nine was a crazy one, so crazy in fact that I am only getting around to writing about it now – two weeks late. I started the month in Illinois where I visited the interesting Cahokia Mounds State Historic Park – what is left of what was once the largest pre-Columbian settlement […] Read more…
Month Thirty Eight was a really fun one, with a good mix of old favourites and new discoveries, some much needed routine for a whole week, and a road trip through five new states! I started month thirty eight with a week in the small mountain town of Eagle, Colorado, where we had a housesit […] Read more…
Month Thirty Seven was an expensive one – but it was so chock full of travel highlights that I don’t even care. I started the month in Thailand on the island of Koh Pha Ngan, where I spent the next five days either relaxing on the most beautiful beach on the island – Thong Nai […] Read more…
If you are going to do one multi-day hike in Colorado – the hike from Aspen to Crested Butte and back again over West Maroon Pass and East Maroon Pass is absolutely the one you should choose. In my opinion (from the hikes I have done so far), it is the best hike in Colorado. […] Read more…
During my first couple of visits to Los Angeles I did the usual tourist stuff: Hollywood Boulevard, Santa Monica, Malibu, Venice Beach, the Getty Museum. It was fun, but I didn’t fall in love with the city. Both times I left feeling like I didn’t get a feeling for LA as a liveable city. With […] Read more…
Month Twenty Nine was another awesome one, spent in three different countries, and involving lots of time outdoors – just how I like it. We started the month still at our Morrison housesit for three days before moving to stay with Toby’s brother Fo for my last five nights in Colorado this year. I ticked […] Read more…
