Touring The Amber Coast: Dominican Republic’s Puerto Plata

When I was a young teen living in the Dominican Republic, most of my friends and their family would venture to the northern coast of the island to take part in the festivities and fun hosted by the many resorts found in the area. The Amber Coast, referred to as suc[...]

So, you wanna be a travel blogger

"What do you do?" "I'm a travel blogger." "Wow! Must be nice! What a great gig!" "Yes. Yes, it is. I'm very grateful." Ok, that last response is one that I have mastered over the past few months. In truth, I didn't know what to respond when presented with the w[...]

Vacationing at Ohio’s Lake Erie Shores and Islands

I must've been 8 years old when I first visited Ohio. We were visiting an aunt who had moved there for work with her husband. It was the middle of summer, the July sun complimenting the golden landscape of wheat fields that surrounded us. My memories are much like[...]

Philadelphia with Kids in Tow

I haven't been to Philadelphia in years, and my husband - who is from Wisconsin - has always wanted to check it out. Because we had such a great 4th of July in Washington, DC a couple of years back, we thought it would be fun to celebrate the 4th in yet another ver[...]

When Good Pitches Happen to Bad People

So the other day, I walked into the offices of my local newspaper. Through the process of endless emails, and follow up emails to check if he got my emails, and follow up emails to confirm that he got the follow up to the email that I had initially sent, he finally[...]

The Six Best Surf Towns in the U.S.

Surfing is different from other sports in that it can’t be done just anywhere. It’s so dependent on the weather and the waves that only a handful of beaches stand out as excellent surf spots. This exclusive nature turns hardcore surfers into nomads, traveling t[...]

Playing Tourists in NYC with Kids in Tow

A weekend in NYC is always a fun way to get away from our daily routine and take a mini-vacation without going far at all. Even when we lived in Manhattan, staying in NYC hotels for a night or two was a fun activity for us, as it allowed to take in the city as tour[...]

Where to Stay in Maui, HI

On my visit to Maui, HI, I had the great opportunity to do some hotel hopping, which was pretty great because I was able to get a feel for a few lodging options on the island. The various options I got to experience appeal to a nice variety of travelers, and their[...]

My Latinx and immigrant people: your happiness, your success, and your positive hopes and dreams for the future are also forms of revolution.

But, above all, our people are resilient and capable of more than you can imagine. Let us move forward with our heads held high, with dignity, and courage.

Today’s morning was fueled by one of our fave sp Today’s morning was fueled by one of our fave spots in Geneva, NY - @monacoscoffee. We found this spot a few years ago, before we moved to the area full time while at a rental nearby and immediately fell in love with its community and cozy vibe, and delicious coffee. 

It’s even cuter than when we first visited while all the reasons we love it remain. Always worth a stop when in Geneva.
