Eau Claire is said to be one of the best places to live in Wisconsin. It has a small town feel with big city amenities. With a focus on arts and a large University in the city it is obvious why this is a great place to lay down roots. With the amount of cheese…
Have you ever been to the New York City Food and Wine Festival? I have lived in New York since I was a teenager and spend so much time eating in the city and yet I have never been. This year that will all change!
When people think of Puerto Rico they tend to think of San Juan. I get it, San Juan is a great city. Its colorful and vibrant. There is a lot to do and even more to eat. But Puerto Rico isn’t one thing.
I had never been to Finland prior to this past winter. The city is easy to get around and has plenty to offer. I imagined something more along the lines of Oslo but instead I got a Russian inspired city. I also did not realize how easy it is to use Helsinki as your base…

On a quest for all things Edgar Allan Poe and the ultimate brunch spot I made my last stop on my month long road trip Baltimore. I have driven thru Maryland countless times whether it was heading to Ocean City or further south. Upon spending time in Baltimore I can’t believe I ever passed it…
When I made Roanoke a stop on my road trip I didn’t know much about it. I figured I would go on a few hikes and drink a few beers and that was that. I had no idea it was the mountain bike capital. It has an interesting culinary scene and a budding brewery scene….
I have driven thru Virginia so many times. I am not sure why it took me so long to get to Richmond. How could I be sleeping on a city as wonderful as this one?
