I know it has crossed your mind. Those two little words that play around in your subconscious and it won’t let you sleep at night – Career Break. It crossed mine not too long ago and I have recently left my job to not only start a new path, but to journey with my husband to Central and South America for 6+ months. Have you ever wondered how? Meet, Plan, Go is the program for you. On September 14, travelers from around the United States and Canada are meeting up to discuss how to accomplish the adventure of a life [...]

After our amazing time in New Mexico, we made a late night trek to Phoenix and found ourselves in Arizona for the next four days. Arizona has a lot to offer in regards to things to do and experience so making out in 4 days is quite a feat. One thing I had not noticed as I got older is that my night vision has gotten exponentially worse than our last road trip… and I’m only 27!

Today was a much better day. Not only was there still some leftover stale bagels and coffee at the Continental Breakfast, but Shaun and managed to not be sick on the road today.

Other than Shaun’s unexpected overtime cutting into our road trip schedule (see, scheduling is bad!), it went off without a hitch (although I almost went crazy with the OCD/intricate packing Shaun was doing, making [...]

Our first day in London was spent trying to adjust to the jet lag we were experiencing and talking to our friends about our potential plans for the next week. Our friends Doug and Steph (who live in London) were telling us about this swanky club that was hoppin’ on Sunday nights – The Notting Hill Arts Club. The colors in this bar were awesome and I couldn’t help myself in capturing some of them. To really get the most of the colors in this picture, I suggest Viewing On Black.
