Shenandoah, Virginia

The park’s main road, Skyline Drive, stretches through the park with 105 scenic miles and a three hour journey though it. Most travelers base themselves in towns like Front Royal, Luray, Sperryville, or Waynesboro. However, we decided to stay in McGaheysville, being closer to…

Cherry Springs, PA

We had friends who visited Cherry Springs, PA a few years ago with their kids. Upon talking and finding out that Roe has a telescope and deep love for the stars we started planning a trip last winter. Fast forward late summer, here’s my post about our trip. My Google Maps Saved Bookmarks from the…

San Francisco, CA

This posts includes everything from transportation, food, things to do, and hiking. Unlike most of my recent trips, this itinerary was very loosely planned. While researching, I simply starred a bunch of places on Google Maps without knowing whether we’d be end up walking everywhere or what not. The MUNI system also confused me at…

San Francisco is more than just a city—it’s a vibrant canvas of cinematic, musical, and cultural history. From iconic movie scenes to legendary music venues, the city offers a glimpse into its creative legacy. Before planning my trip, I had no idea just how many famous film locations were scattered across the city. After doing…

Stowe, Vermont

When we decided to visit Stowe, bouldering was on the agenda. But if I’m being honest, the real draw for me was the ice cream—specifically, Ben & Jerry’s. If you’re going to sell me on a bouldering trip, ice cream was my ultimate travel motivator. Promise me a bacon, egg, and cheese on a bagel.…

Étretat Cliffs, France July

This was one of our earlier stops in our France trip and it easily remained my favorite among everything else. For any of those who watched Lupin on Netflix, this is the town at the end of Season 1. This isn’t the reason why I had wanted to go there and I didn’t know this…
