Per the consensus, this week is a color photo week! Shaun and I were making our way up to Las Vegas when I saw this amazing view from the car on the way to the Hoover Dam. Looking out the window when making long, nostalgic road trips across the country can bring your some of… Continue reading Travel Photography – Arizona Roads Near the Hoover Dam
I was on Skype with the fantastic Nick LaBorde from Locationless the other day, and thank GOD he was a great ear that provides eye opening insights. I had to talk to someone and I almost feel bad that Nick had to be my venting pole. One of my issues, like many life changing things… Continue reading Frustrations and Planning
I have a few Burning Man pictures lined up for the next few weeks since they just look so awesome. Yes, I was dumb enough to pull out my camera during a fill blown white out at Burning Man. These types of things can be fixed on my camera, right? *cough* (Let's not talk about that...)… Continue reading Travel Photography – Night White Out at Burning Man
Back in January I had the opportunity to partake in yet another burlesque road trip with burlesque beauty and bestie, Jolie Ampere Goodnight. While I was hoping to make a break into the burlesque and pin up industry before we left on our trip, I have to take a step back to make sure our… Continue reading Burlesque Road Trip 2
***Rant incoming I warn you!*** I don’t rant much on this blog but I cannot hold it back any longer. I have a bone to pick with the proverbial you. We are not going on vacation. Every time you talk about our vacation it belittles what we’re actually trying to accomplish on our trip. I… Continue reading Not a Vacation
While Shaun and I were on our Southwestern United States road trip to Burning Man, we stopped to visit some very awesome friends who live in Scottsdale (who... shhhh.... we met on World of Warcraft!). I always like take advice from local friends on where to explore. Not only do they give you the uber… Continue reading Travel Photography – Saguaro Cactus in Scottsdale Arizona
I admit it. I’m going crazy. The only things keeping me moving along and getting the important things accomplished before our trip are postcards from abroad and music to keep me jamming. So here it is, the travel music that I blast on 11 when I need that uplifting moment to remind me why we… Continue reading Get Inspired! Travel Music to get You Going!
While meandering our way around Segovia Spain in the rain, we came across this tunnel that not only protected us from the torrential downpour. Just for a moment it allowed us to experience a slice of Segovian life. There is nothing quite like the sound of rain softly hitting the cobblestones of the street in… Continue reading Travel Photography – A Peek into Life in Segovia Spain
I am going to make a claim that may sound incredulous to many of you. Married people have sex. I know. I know. It is hard to believe. Some more than others but the fact remains the same. There is one thing on my brain for our oncoming trip - travel and contraceptives. Shaun and… Continue reading Travel and Contraceptives
I must admit, I have a sick obsession with black and white photos. The Segovia Cathedral will be bringing in this Photo Friday. It really caught my eye while we were traveling around Spain in 2010. This is when I really started to notice that architecture in Europe was so different and unique - I… Continue reading Travel Photography – Segovia Cathedral
While doing my weekly “patrol” of blogs, I found myself absolutely inspired by Shannon of A Little Adrift’s most recent post, A Little Synchronicity…Plan, Who Needs Plan!?. This post made me reflect not only on my current situation, but on how Shaun and I are approaching our upcoming trip. There can be a massive payoff… Continue reading Risks in the Game of Life
There is nothing quite like the sight of an encroaching storm on the dry desert over Burning Man. In true Over Yonderlust fashion, it rained on us. While normally it can get annoying, there is nothing more magical than a desert storm. While this picture did make its debut in a previous Burning Man post,… Continue reading Burning Man Pics: Storm Encroaching the Playa
As frightening as some of my crazy, vivid dreams can be, I am always grateful for the times where they inspire me to write. I woke up 3 ½ hours after falling asleep for this one. I have an ugly confession to make. While many people tell me how strong of a person I am,… Continue reading Confronting Fears Abroad
This picture was also off of the old film set that had gotten the eerie effect from the Hiroshima A-Bomb Dome. This is a shrine at the Hida Folk Village in Takayama, Japan. I was so taken aback by the beautiful light that had presented itself, I had to capture this tranquil moment. While the… Continue reading Travel Photography – Hida Folk Village – Takayama, Japan
As one of my New Year's resolutions, I vowed to make my blog bigger and better than ever. To help us on our way I have decided to take on Travel Blog Challenge's ambitious goal of the 1000-1000 Challenge. While we have quite a ways to go, I have to say I feel incredibly lucky… Continue reading 1000-1000 Challenge
