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.”

no travel required
Also three good reasons you should travel in general. Though we’re still waiting for “patience” to kick in. Three Ways Travel Makes Us Better People This video is both gorgeous and lifesaving. Meaning: you can watch it instead of go diving in Ireland and get hypothermia yourself. Win win. Swim in frigid waters with Ireland’s surf photographers This post gave us both our photo of the day, and made us want to walk across every single one of these countries. Well played, BootsNAll.

hotel living // my home away from home away from home
When it comes to hotel living, the logical, sensible side of me has pretty minimal requirements. Hotels must be clean, centrally located, and come complete with a friendly, helpful staff. But at the same time, one of my favorite parts about a vacation is hotel living. I can’t help it! Sometimes I even ask hubs if we can stay in a hotel in Manhattan, just for fun.

a perfect day in cape may, new jersey
In an article I recently read on guidance for the aspiring travel writer, the reader was advised against sharing personal recounts of their trips. Instead, as writers, we should hone in on our specialties and provide our readers with objective, valuable insight on where and how to travel. You know every battlefield on the Western Front? Take your readers on that journey. I consider this valuable advice. But here’s the thing. I’m not an expert. Far from it actually. I’m not a history guru or a food expert and I hardly consider my opinions and experiences more valuable than the…

vacations for everyone: pug edition
This time next week, the hubs and I will have arrived in Amsterdam, ready to conquer the next 10 days. We’re excited to escape New York for a few days, but we will miss one major thing about our life here: our pug! One of the big reasons people shy away from having a dog is because of travel, and we can see why. Lucky for us, our families live close enough to give him a little vacation of his own. Parker Jones has become quite the seasoned traveler since we rescued him four years ago, but alas, flying our…

we get by with a little help from our friends
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again – it doesn’t hurt to have friends in the right places. I’m not ashamed to say that I take full advantage of my boyfriend’s beach house, my best friend’s cabin on the lake, and if a friend moves away, I make it my mission to make a vacation out of visiting them. Case in point – this weekend, I’m traveling to the beautiful seaside town of Cape May, NJ where my college roommate has a vacation home. I’ve got friends in high places, and because of this, I’ve traveled the globe.…
