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.”

the lazy girls’ guide to finding the perfect villa
It’s hard to believe, but less than a month ago, we were reunited in Spain, lounging poolside and munching on manchego. It was exactly what we needed. And while we’re not exactly experts, our villa absolutely made the trip even more special. Because we know nabbing a place to stay can be a little overwhelming, we thought we’d put together a little guide to finding the perfect villa. Though our recent joint travels have been amazing — honestly, each more exciting than the last — they’ve also been a little nutso! We tore through San Francisco and Napa Valley in…

3 days in chicago // a first-timer’s guide (part two)
If you haven’t already booked a flight to Chicago after reading about all of the places my mom and I ate and drank on our three-day weekend in August, maybe part two will push you over the edge. In only a weekend, Chicago has become one of my favorite US cities, and I’m already itching to return. Luckily, I get to relive things a bit. It’s time for the rest of my guide to Chicago for first-timers. With an abundance of eating and drinking happening, my mom and I had to break up our meals. Cue: A LOT of walking.…

a taste of turkey // eating our way on a food tour of istanbul
After Jeff and I got the lay of the land on the European side of Istanbul, we decided it was time we hoof it over to Asia and see what the other half had to offer. We felt the best way to do this would be via a tried and true, classic method. With a food tour of Istanbul, of course! We dedicated our first full day to learning about the city’s most famous historical sites. We also, obviously, fell in love with the Blue Mosque every time it caught our eye. The next day, however, we decided to eat…

3 days in chicago // a first-timer’s guide (part one)
Chicago has long been on The Lazy Travelers’ bucket list, and as two Americans who travel as much as we do, it’s slightly pitiful that neither of us have been there in our near thirty years. When my job had me visiting Chicago for the very first time, I had no choice! I had to make a weekend out of it. Though my husband normally joins me on my weekend journeys, my jaunt to Chicago fell over my mom’s birthday. I decided to make it a girls’ weekend and bring her along for the ride. SORRY, SEAN! We arrived in…

a little announcement…
Hey, hi, hello! SO… we’ve been keeping a secret around LT HQ, and now I have a little announcement to make. And I mean little in the most literal sense of the word. Like, this secret started as a speck! A tiny poppy seed! But, now that we’re just under 6 months away from the expected beginning of our next adventure, I thought it was about time to loop you in. Any guesses? OUI! As of today, I am officially 17 weeks (+/- a few days) pregnant! Lazy baby is on board! We’ve been slowly sharing the news with our…
