weekend warriors #LTfriendsgiving // thanksgiving in val-d’isère, part 2
Oh, you thought we were finished professing our love for our Thanksgiving in Val-d’Isère? You were wrong. So very, very wrong. If you read the first post detailing our #LTfriendsgiving weekend in this snowy alpine town, you’ll know we spent the majority of our time eating and drinking with our feet up by the fire. Yes, we could have happily camped out in our chalet for the entire weekend. But Saturday morning marked the official opening of Val-d’Isère’s ski season! As long-time (but admittedly infrequent) skiers, Carolyn and Jeff were itching to hit the slopes. And although he had never…

weekend warriors #LTfriendsgiving // an intro to thanksgiving in val-d’isère
The holidays have come and gone, and we’re pretty sure that no one’s more mixed up than we are to see this season go. It kicked off with an intro to Thanksgiving in Val-d’Isère that we’ll never forget. After that, it was basically non-stop Christmas cheer until the New Year. So on the one hand, we have a whole year to wait until Santa returns. Nearly 365 days until we eat all the Christmas cookies guilt-free. Whomp whomp. On the other hand, the end of this month marks the wino’s first wedding anniversary! AND somewhere in there, we have the…

#LTtop10 // our 2015 travel highlights!
We probably sound a bit like a broken record at this point, but we can’t help it. 2015 has been an incredible year — with the wino’s wedding and the romantic’s pregnancy taking the two obvious top spots. And what’s the end of the year for anyway if not to look back on all our 2015 travel highlights? We need to take a moment to feel thankful! If you follow us on Instagram — which, chellooo, you should — then you know we’ve been ‘gramming our favorite trips of the year over the past week and a half. But if…

#LTfriendsgiving // an alpine roadtrip with auto europe
Depending on where you live, you might be dealing with the same (disappointing) unseasonably warm weather. It’s definitely what we’re each facing in Philadelphia and London this holiday season, and it is BLEH. But while it looks like a white Christmas will take place only in our dreams this year, we can’t complain. We had a quick preview of a real winter wonderland during our alpine roadtrip for #LTfriendsgiving, and it was everything we wanted and more. We have lots to share from our long weekend in the French Alps, but we thought we’d start at the very beginning: with…

weekend warriors // christmas in the cotswolds
Back in July, I declared Christmas to be my first real pregnancy craving. For whatever reason, I was more than ready to unpack my coziest sweaters — er… cosiest jumpers, if I’m tryna fit in around here. I just wanted to fast forward to December, and I began planning everything. From where we would put our tree to the perfect wintertime countryside escapes. My grandest idea? Christmas in the Cotswolds. Because I don’t have a time machine, the hubs indulged me with the next best thing: planning beaucoup de festivities. We agreed on a date night in Hyde Park’s Winter…
