a mini reunion & a failed ode to brunch
If you’re reading the title of this post and feeling like an ode to brunch has probably already happened around here, the answer is: it’s highly probable. If there’s one thing we love, it’s brunch. Pair this with the fact that we were briefly together in Philadelphia this weekend, and you basically have the recipe for the most perfect Sunday Funday! Oh right, so, small confession: we’ve kinda been holding out on you. Last weekend, we were blissfully reunited in Philadelphia… for about five minutes. We meant to loop you in a bit more, and if you were paying close…

weekend warriors: 36 hours in san francisco
We’ve had an amazing month of travel for many reasons. But one thing worth noting? We’ve officially added a new favorite city to our repertoire. That’s right, after 36 hours in San Francisco, we can say it. You passed the “would I live here?” test with flying colors. And, dear travelers, we are clearly not experts on this new-to-us city. But here’s what we can strongly suggest for your own weekend escape to the City by the Bay. Based on our experiences, of course. See how happy it made us?

weekend warriors // 48 hours in oslo
onFirst of all, I’d like to apologize for the less-than-thrilling title. I stared at my screen for awhile, trying to come up with something cute. But the only thing I could think was, “Oslo, can you go?” … crickets, right? Exactly. Anyway! Let’s review how the hubs and I spent our 48 hours in Oslo. Our very first time in Norway AND Scandinavia as a whole! Crazytown. Where slept // We arrived in Oslo late on a Friday night — a little later than we expected, thanks to some delays at Heathrow — and headed straight for the The Thief.…

bonne bastille & a very happy #LTeastcoast!
WELL! Bonne Bastille! Wouldn’t you know that despite living in France for the past 11 months, the romantic has somehow managed to NOT be in the country on their most important holiday of the year? Oui, c’est Bastille Day. And oui, oui, we are not en France. But, it’s ok! It really is. It’s more than ok actually, because what this means is that instead of being apart, we are TOGETHER! And because we love any excuse to celebrate, we’ll obviously still make time to sip our champagne and toast to French Nationals. And all while reflecting on the amazing…

the dublin weekender, part one: sleeping & sightseeing
As the hubs and I expand our growing list of cities we love, I find myself regularly trying to rank them. It’s not that I necessarily need them ranked… it’s that “what’s your favorite city?” is the #1 question we get whenever we catch up with old friends. And, despite all the times people have asked, I still can’t answer with a clear, straightforward answer. Instead, I’ve now taken to responding with a different question: “for what?” If the question is, “a weekend getaway when you’re short on time, but want to see the heart of the city and experience…
