Wanderlust Friday: Travel is Exhausting
Hey there – so we missed a wanderlust Friday post last week. The short and sweet of it is we didn’t have wifi OR 4G connection – yes, those places still exist in the US. Right here is one, if you are curious ) The longer and much more truthful explanation is that of course we

Wanderlust Friday
Olkhon Island, Lake Baikal, Russia. The return to 9-5 has been a bit bumpy for me. I like the job and my colleagues, and even the routine. But the no fresh air or day light for 8 hours a day — that’s brutal. We are constantly re-evaluating where we want to be and how we

Liebster Award – aka Interview with House to Laos
We’ve been nominated for a Liebster Award! It came as a complete surprise. We are so honored to be included on this list of new(ish) travel bloggers whom the community thinks deserve recognition.

Wanderlust Friday
Happy Wanderlust Friday guys! Last weekend was graduations galore around Washington DC, and so summer feels like its going to kick into high gear any second now.

Spaces Around the Globe: Notre Dame Saint Michele – Paris

Cabin Weekend: Lost River, WV
For the foreseeable future we are based out of Washington DC, but still intend to travel far and wide, explore closer to home, and pretty much engage any and all wanderlust opportunities that come our way. We recently went away for a cabin weekend, that quintessential American retreat, and it was wonderful. There is something

Wanderlust Friday
You guys, it’s Friday! And that means its definitely a great time to daydream, plan, or just take off on your next travel adventure. Just go on, get in the car, maybe to the train station, or even an airport and just go. For our part, we are stoked to leave on Sunday for a trip

Wanderlust Friday
Uff, hello Friday, we’ve missed you so. This week was a whirlwind of busy, busy, busy. And there is no better antidote to that than some inspiring travel stuff: news, links, and inspiration. First, let’s get some news out of the way: after next week we are off to Southwest Florida for a bit – we are

Sergey’s Perfect Travel Day
Sichuan Tibet near Tagong village, China. I’ve spent some time thinking of a concept of a perfect day, perfect is such a relative term after all. As I was beginning to deconstruct our typical days on the road, there seemed to be two major types of days: active and passive. Active travel is your “go mode”
