When researching Iceland, Brian and I quickly discovered that the best way to experience Iceland was by driving your own car. There are plenty of people that use Reykjavik as their home-base and venture out by tour bus, but if you want to go at your own pace and be able to see everything, I […]

The last leg of our honeymoon was spent in the southwest, with Reykjavik being our home base. Each day we would venture out, but we loved coming back in the afternoons to enjoy walking around and taking in the peaceful and colorful city.  Day 6Our day started off with driving out to The Secret Lagoon. […]

Our time on the east coast was short, since we needed to head north to Húsavík first thing in the morning! We organized ourselves for our journey and headed on our way. Day 4 We woke up early to drive into Húsavík, a town in northern Iceland that is fondly called “The Whale Watching Capital […]

I’m so excited to share our Icelandic adventure with you guys! Brian and I recently got back from a week-long trip around the entire country for our honeymoon, and it was incredible. Iceland is a beautiful country and we are so glad we got to see everything the country has to offer during the summer […]

The first question we got asked when we told people we were going to Iceland for our honeymoon was, “Why Iceland?” We even were asked that while on our honeymoon, and to be honest, it’s a very simple answer. We wanted an adventure! While sitting on the beach and enjoying tropical beverages did sound amazing, we […]

A part of me wishes we went on our honeymoon right away. That we had woken up the morning after our wedding, rushed to the airport and flew to a relaxing vacation away from all the stress of life and wedding planning. But after going through it all, I am so glad we waited. Brian […]

With the Royal Wedding less than two days away, I became inspired to write about our time in London a few years ago. Before my senior year of college, I studied abroad in Rome, and after my last class, my husband and I traveled to London for a few days before heading back to the […]

During our time in Norway, we decided to venture out to the countryside after a day of exploring Oslo. Throughout the country, Norway can experience many different temperatures and weather conditions, so traveling through it was quite a sight. Some areas were covered in clouds and snow (in mid-August), while others, had temps of 70! Before our […]

My husband and I traveled to Northern Europe a few summers ago, and Oslo was our final stop before heading back to Milwaukee. We were so excited to visit, because we are both part Norwegian and we couldn’t wait to experience the culture and see the infamous Norwegian countryside. We only stayed in Oslo for […]

On our trip to Europe last summer, we visited three countries. My favorite, by far, was Denmark. As soon as we got of of the train in Copenhagen and began our walk to our AirB&B, I knew that I was going to love the short three days we had there. The city was so beautiful and […]

During our time in Dublin, we spent a lot of time exploring the sites, shopping for aran wool and claddagh rings, and eating some good, hardy food. Of course, our list of things to do involved drinking lots of Irish whiskey and Guinness, and while I never actually kept count, I must have tried at least […]

This past summer I was lucky enough to check a few more countries off of my bucket list. On top of traveling with my fiancé, I was able to travel with one of oldest and best friends on her first time out of the United States. Our first stop? Ireland. As we flew into Dublin, […]

This past summer, my friend and I were talking about how she had never really traveled and how she wants to explore the world. After telling her to “seize the day,” I thought to myself, “why not plan a trip together?!” We started planning our European adventure in September of last year and picking where to go […]
