travel announcement: the friendsgiving to end all friendsgivings…
For all of those in despair over the end of our #LTeastcoast coverage (we know there are AT LEAST one or two of you), we have the best news in weeks! There’s another Lazy Traveler’s reunion on the horizon. This time, it’s all in the name of FRIENDSGIVING. We’ll be meeting in the land of all the greats. Home to Shakespeare and Dickens and Hugh Grant and Harry Potter! There will be pints and fish and chips and perhaps one or two restraining orders filed by the royal family. If you haven’t guessed it by now, my fiancé and I are…

london, baby! (+ travel announcement!)
This summer, the hubs and I hit up London for our third time together, and agreed that each time we go… we kinda love the city more than the last. So, you can probably guess based on the title: I have a travel announcement or two to make! I’m definitely jinxing myself here. But we’ve never really had the traditionally terrible weather that London is so known for! And this last time? Well, the city was on a perfect weather HIGH.

peak season travel & how to ensure survival
If you’ve been around here for awhile, you know one thing is true: we don’t really travel during the peak season. Be it Amsterdam in October or Costa Rica in July, the hubs and I generally seek out better deals to help lighten our budget load.

olympic dining: london 2012
The hubs always says that his favorite part of traveling to countries where he doesn’t speak the language is trying to order off of the menu without sounding like an idiot. This is why, every once in awhile, we like to sprinkle our travels with English-speaking countries–you know, to make the hubs feel better. After hitting Belgium and The Netherlands last year, our stop in England was especially key (the hubs was not so great at Dutch). If you or your travel companion feel similarly and want to brush up on your English-speaking skills, Kaplan has a few schools that…
