Summer in Europe continues as we make our way to Luxembourg. This country may be small, but man is it beautiful. We spent our first day exploring the main square and walking streets of Ville Haute, taking in the views near Barrio Grund, and drinking a lot of coffee along the way. We’re really zipping along …
Amsterdam is a hard act to follow, and Brussels was dealt that card. If we’d come here on its own as a separate vacation, we would probably really love Brussels. But since so much of our opinion on cities has to do with where they fall in the trip, we haven’t fully committed to loving …
It’s been 51 weeks since we left the United Sates on our journey around the world. The trip has taken us to six continents on 48 flights and taught us to say thank you in 25 languages. We’ve packed and unpacked our bags more times than we can count, and we’ve slept in at least …
Amsterdam is a city of canals, tulips, bikes and “coffeeshops”. It’s the capital of the Netherlands and is located in the region of Holland. Although it’s known around the world for its Red Light District and liberal marijuana laws, as a whole, the city could not be more beautiful. The city is built on a …
Hello, mates! We’re writing to you today from cheery old England! We’ve been to London a few times before actually, but this city keeps calling us back. And every time we come back, it reminds us again and again why it’s one of our favorite cities in the world. This time around we decided to …
I never considered myself an animal person. Other than birds, which I love, I’ve never really cared too much about animals. Or so I thought. Then we started traveling the world. The more we traveled, the more animals I met, the more I started loving them. I met exotic animals that I’d only ever seen …
When we started planning for this trip, I made a list of countries I was most excited to visit. I feel utterly spoiled as we continue to check countries off the top of that bucket list: Australia, Egypt and now Morocco. We’re two cities into our five-city itinerary, and I think I can safely say that …
We travel a lot and aren’t easily shaken. We did just fine in Medellin where there was very little English, we loved the ebb and flow of motorbikes in Hanoi, and we thrived in Beijing even though we had no idea what was happening ever. But our first night in Cairo was a lot to …
We’re back in the UAE, folks! Dubai is one of three cities we’ve gone to on this trip that we’ve already vacationed to in the past (Munich & London being the other two). We look back on our first time in Dubai mostly fondly (we seem to have mixed memories), but we didn’t come back …
I’ve collected a lot of things over the past nine months of travel. I’ve got t-shirts from every country, coins in every currency, and thousands of rows of data. Across +20 workbooks, we have meticulously tracked every aspect of this trip. We can tell you how many miles we’ve flown (62,176), how many times we’ve …
