If trying a double donut fried chicken sandwich isn’t on your bucket list then you’re not thinking far enough outside the box. I mean, come on, what are you waiting for?! Every time I visit Houston I’m continually amazed at the endless, and I mean endless, food options. From unique hole-in-the-walls to chain restaurants to food […]
One of my goals on my trip to Houston was to explore not only the most popular spots in the city, but also to step off the beaten path and explore the quirkier side of Houston. When my sister told me about the Art Car Museum or as it’s better known in Houston, the “Garage […]
Since I made exploring more of Kansas City one of my goals for this year, I’ve started to branch out and try some local restaurants in different neighborhoods around KC. Kansas City’s annual Restaurant Week happened in mid-January which allows you to try a 2 or 3 course meal at hundreds of restaurants around KC […]
Picture this: you hate reptiles (especially snakes), but you get convinced to walk through the reptile house at the Antwerp Zoo. Reluctantly you go along knowing that all the reptiles will be safely behind glass, right? Right? Wrong! Okay, let me back up for a minute and set the scene for you. Stepping off the […]

Although this particular shop is a Belgian Friterie (fry […]
Everyone from Kansas City knows that the Liberty Memorial is one of the best spots for incredible views of KC. Having grown up in Kansas City pretty much my whole life, it’s kinda sad that I never made it to the top of the Liberty Memorial until last year. Better late than never, right? The […]
One thing I will never skip out on while traveling around Europe is the gelato. Gelato everyday? Gelato multiple times in one day? Don’t mind if I do! I can always find room in my budget for a little more gelato. I think it’s one thing I refuse to skimp on because gelato isn’t as abundant […]
Who would have thought there would be an ancient Egyptian temple right smack dab in the middle of Spain’s capital, Madrid? I definitely didn’t. I stumbled across the Templo de Debod (Temple of Debod in English) while I was studying abroad in Madrid a couple years ago and it quickly became one of my favorite […]
One of my favorite things about one year ending and another year beginning is the chance to start fresh and tackle some new goals for the upcoming year. Most people will make a list of their New Year’s resolutions or goals that they hope to accomplish over the next 365 days and if you’re anything like […]
