Lazy Travelers
The Lazy Travelers are two transatlantic best friends who have mastered the art of exploring a new city. Though Ashley is based in London and Carolyn is in Philadelphia, we'll use any excuse to reunite around the world. We’re professional bar hoppers, pub crawlers, and food testers, and you’ll never see us zipping around, checking things off a list of “must-sees.”

weekend warriors // one night at gleneagles
As you may recall, last summer, we took our little family of four up to the Scottish Highlands for a week on the Isle of Skye. If you know anything about Skye, then you know it doesn’t make much sense geographically to follow it up with one seemingly random night at Gleneagles. AND YET, spoiler alert: that’s what we did. After many mishaps. While we initially planned to fly in and out of Inverness for a Saturday – Saturday itinerary, we realized pre-trip that this meant returning to Notting Hill during Carnival. LOL, NO. Luckily, it wasn’t too difficult to…

As anyone will tell you, if you want decent weather, you have to go in…

english escapes // a family trip to daylesford farm
Nesting takes many forms, and before Henry was born, my sole mission was to plan our summer travels. Mostly, this was because I knew we had to jet back to the States just one month after his due date. As a result, I wanted to keep the momentum going, and ensure we didn’t go into the same hibernation mode we experienced after Margot was born. Please note: the newborn bubble is dreamy, so don’t burst it before you must. Especially with your first. But life with an active toddler and an April newborn made for a much different vibe the…

give stories, not stuff // inspiring experiences with tinggly
– This post, “give stories, not stuff // inspiring experiences with tinggly” is sponsored content.- Can you believe that it’s been nearly eight years since we started The Lazy Travelers? So many things have changed, but there is one important constant. We remain travel-loving besties who will jump at the chance to reunite and drink wine, anywhere in the world. We may have an ocean between us instead of 2nd Avenue, but our husbands can attest: our scheming and travel-dreaming has not waned. Recently, a company called Tinggly reached out to us to talk about their service. The tagline immediately…
