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.”

wanderlust cure: new york edition
Though we can’t complain that we’re finally reunited in New York City, there is one minor downside: our wanderlust is bordering on out of control. We can’t help it! It seems like every time we’re together, we end up pining over the countless cities where we’d rather be. You know, just drinking wine and catching bits and pieces of a foreign tongue. And what, exactly, is the wanderlust cure for such a desire?! Though the majority of New York speaks English (albeit with some interesting accents), we’re lucky! When our need for cultural submersion reaches its boiling point, we can escape…

pura vida: the hanging bridges of arenal
After the whirlwind that has been these past few weeks, I think it’s about time for some Pura Vida. Let’s catch up on our Costa Rica adventures and head back to Arenal, shall we? Though we wished we had stayed elsewhere, I stand by my advice to still include the Arenal area in your itinerary. You just really don’t need to spend more than two days exploring the area. After our first day lounging at the spa and sweating it out in the hot springs, we signed up for a hanging bridge tour. We couldn’t wait to explore the rainforest…

the wino or the hobo?
Oh hello, old friends. I have some good news and I have some bad news. The good news: it’s almost the end of my third week as a New York City working woman, and the dust has settled just enough that I think I’ll finally be able to re-instate my title as blogging extraordinaire and happy go-lucky wino. The bad news: I’m apartment-less, yet again, which means I’ve been schlepping my bags from couch to couch all over the island of Manhattan. This may not be bad news for you, but trust me, attempting to carry multiple pieces of luggage…

jetsetters: kimberly of @GoGreenTraveler
Despite our lacking presence around here, we still managed to pull together a jetsetter for this week! Impressive, no? This week’s travel tales come from Kimberly, also known as @GoGreenTraveler of Go Green Travel Green. FYI, yes, we keep saying it in our heads as “Go-Go-Gadget Green” so there’s that. BUT also, the romantic met up with GGTG’s co-founder, Elizabeth, at TBEX, who was just lovely, and though we have yet to meet Kimberly in person, we feel like we know her a little bit better after reading her answers below. Once you’re acquainted as well, pop over to twitter…

life in the fast lane
As expected, we’ve admittedly fallen a teensy bit behind around here. We have so much to catch up on: more Costa Rican recaps from the romantic & hubs, tales of the wino’s reunion with NYC, and upcoming travel plans for both of us. Alas, the fun stuff is on the backburner while we let our paying jobs take over, but bear with us! We’ll be back and better than ever in no time. Swear it. For now, here’s a little peek into our week: Clockwise from top left: a Nine West Runway Relief flash mob on Fashion’s Night Out (New…
