Have you ever stayed in an HI Hostel? Until my time in Austin I had not. For some reason I was under the impression they were for really young travelers and had curfews. I could not have been more wrong about what they stand for and how wonderful they are.
Obviously the French Quarter is known for Bourbon Street. Besides Hurricane’s ( the drink that is) and heaps of multi colored beads there are lot of reason’s to head down to the famed area. These are my suggestions for exploring the French Quarter.
Denver is the biggest city in Colorado. It has a population of about 500k. I rolled into “The Mile High City” in the late afternoon on a Friday and had until Sunday morning to explore the city. How do you roll it all into barely 36 hours? I am here to help you.
I wish I would have taken a road trip down to Wilmington, North Carolina back when I graduated from high school. It would have been the “Dawson’s Creek” mecca I had always dreamed it would be. It is mostly devoted to “One Tree Hill” now but whispers of my favorite WB drama still exist if…

If you didn’t know, Savannah holds the tittle for the most haunted city in the United States. They stole the coveted title from New Orleans, now second.
How does one decide what to do when you are in Washington,DC? The amount of museums that are there alone are over whelming. Not to mention all the monuments you might want to see and cupcakes you might want to eat.
Food is my favorite part of any trip. I willingly eat my way thru any country I am in. Puerto Rico proved to be a great eating vacation and it all started with a food tour of Old San Juan. Flavors of San Juan Food and Culture Tours invited me along on a beautiful sunny…
I am so backed up on Thailand posts that I forgot all about the posts I wanted to do about Portland. I love doing my round up posts on my favorite things about each city I go to. I loved everything about Portland. It was the first time I went to another city in the…
