London is massive, and with so much to see, it’s important to prioritize and plan. My mom and I are list-makers, and had come up with a massive list of everything we wanted to see and do while in London. However, after our first day we realized that wasn’t going to work. Many of the […]
How to Spend a Long Weekend in Brussels
In my last post, I spoke about a website/app I use when I’m searching for a new place to visit, but am not quite sure where to go. Before a long weekend I had back in December, Odaliz and I looked on Skyscanner and found an inexpensive flight to Brussels (after Tallinn, inexpensive was key!). […]
The Start of Our German Fairy Tale
For the last few years, my visits home for Christmas have always included at least one day in the living room with my parents, actively planning their visit in February. Last year we planned out the most wonderful fairy tale vacation in Germany and France, heading back to the home of our ancestral Streisels. Well, […]
Cook and Dine Milano
The best gift I ever gave was a selfish gift because I got to have it, too. Last Christmas, I found to most amazing Milanese cooking class, and was so pumped to share the experience with my parents when they visited in February. The class was with Cook and Dine Milano, run by […]

My Night at the Billionaire’s Club (and other experiences in Sardinia)
I’ve never been one to lay around on a beach. Growing up with summers at Lake Wallkill, going to the beach meant building intense sand neighborhoods and sand factories (yes, factories), swim races, trying to gather the courage to dive off the high diving board, and swimming to the raft where we’d play human bowling before the […]
Switching from Mozzarella to Feta
For Spring Break this year, my friends and I spent the week in Oia, Santorini. This is going to be a mostly food based post, so I’m going to get these other highlights out at the beginning: Staying on Amoudi Bay April was still pretty chilly in Santorini, but staying on the bay […]
Vivo Per Lei!
Last night I had another one of those moments where I just couldn’t believe that what was happening was really my life. As you may have seen, seeing Andrea Bocelli preform has been a part of my bucket list for a long time. When my sisters and I were little and our parents would play […]
