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.”

adventures in switzerland: the last minute details
This morning kicked off an important week in Lazy Travelers land: it’s the week of our Swiss adventure! Serious business. As expected, we are not packed, but we are feeling (somewhat) prepared. This weekend, we ticked a few necessary items off our “Final Days” checklist: Final research is being conducted. Last minute purchases have been made. Manicures have been completed. And really, what we’re saying with this post is: we are STALLING the packing process. Downright stalling. Stay tuned, travelers. There’s a real chance that this two bag carry-on thing is not going to go well. xo! the romantic & the…

the romantic’s switzerland packing essentials
Why yes, this is another packing post. Another necessary packing post. Welcome to my lil list of Switzerland packing essentials. Maybe it’s less necessary for you and more necessary for my sanity, but either way, it’s happening. As the wino pointed out yesterday, packing is not our forte… so we are making a conscious effort to turn that around for this trip! The wino blames our advanced planning on the dropping temperatures in and around Geneva. I blame the fact that we now show our faces around here and I want to look cute for you people. Ahh, vanity, you…

Oy. #Winewednesday turned into Mexican food Wednesday, which somehow turned into How the Grinch Stole Christmas Wednesday, and before we knew it, the night really got away from us. We’re recuperating and enjoying our afternoon dose of NTR. You should too. Cheese is pretty much our favorite food group! Next to alcoholic beverages and carbohydrates. Those are groups too, right? Cheesy Vacations All of our favorite things in one of our bucket-list cities! Dining, Shopping, and Eating in Prague Never! We laugh in the face of danger! Except real danger. Scary.
