While traveling you never know if you’ll have good internet coverage or if roaming charges will be high. And the car rental company still wants $15 a day for their GPS. What do you do? You can actually download maps while you are at home and then have them in Google Maps, even when offline. […]
Located on the shores of the intracoastal just outside Palm Beach, Florida, the Flagler Museum is a remarkable and beautiful estate. We could not help but get the feeling of being transported to a French or Italian Villa while enjoying this gem in South Florida. Every detail is exquisite, and it’s definitely a must-see. Henry […]
On our last South African safari, we sampled a few camps in different areas and fell in love with MalaMala. Their motto: “It’s all about the wildlife.” resonated with us and the whole reason we love safaris. We also learned that they had just finished a renovation of the famous Rattray’s Camp and we were […]
We had seen a picture of the famous Skeleton Coast hotel, the Shipwreck Lodge in a magazine once. I remember us both saying wow wouldn’t it be amazing to stay there. With this in mind, we planned our Namibia trip over the course of one week with three stops. We would start with Sossusvlei for […]
We have a convenient SunPass sticker that lets us drive through tolls on local Florida highways charging the fees to our credit card on file. Not only do we save money on the tolls but it is super handy! When traveling, the rental car companies charge an arm and a leg for tolls if you […]

One of our first exotic dive destinations was Thailand. While we were just newly certified and this was mostly a traditional holiday, we could not resist the opportunity of diving in the Andaman Sea. Diving in Phuket was the perfect conclusion to our Thailand adventure and a great dive destination. Up until then, we had […]
We took a cruise that ended in Rio de Janeiro and opted to spend a couple of extra days to enjoy this amazing city. The scenery was really beautiful with all the mountains and sea views. My favorite by far was the iconic egg-shaped Sugarloaf Mountain in the background of the bay. Just picture-perfect.
When we booked a cruise sailing from Buenos Aires to Rio with a few stops in Brazil and one in Uruguay, we were mostly excited about the bookends of the cruise. Because we had always wanted to visit both cities, we added a pre-cruise stay in Buenos Aires and a post-cruise stay in Rio de Janeiro. Before […]
