In July 2024, my husband and I road-tripped to Montana to visit Glacier National Park, one of America's national parks. It immediately became one of our favorite parks for both of us. (If you keep reading, I share the top 3 parks for each of us below!)

Since my review of my summer 2023 cruise on the Norwegian Prima  is by far my travel diary with the most questions, I wanted to compile all the questions into a blog post in case anyone else has the same questions and is googling to find answers!

True story:  One of my biggest regrets of the last few years is that my husband and I didn't buy an RV in our early 30s to see more of the United States. Here's the view from Schwabacher Landing in Grand Teton National Park

When my husband saw that one of Norwegian Cruise Line's newest ships had a summer Iceland and Norway itinerary, we knew we wanted to be on it. I have wanted to visit Norway and Iceland for  years . But for some reason, Iceland just never worked out, and figuring out where to go in Norway felt intimidating. So a cruise seemed ideal! We made our reservation in August 2022 and spent the next year counting down to our 10-day cruise in late July/early August on the Norwegian Prima   around northern Europe... and the cruise was just as stunning as I'd imagined it would be. With so many different ports, this review is a long one... so let's dive in! Note: This post contains affiliate links.

Good morning! Since the United States recently celebrated the Constitution on September 17, I wanted to share my trip last year to Memphis, Tennessee, over a similar holiday (Independence Day on July 4).

I think this post may actually beat my New Zealand posts as my most photo-heavy post -- because Yosemite is one of the most stunning places I have ever visited.  Travel has made me so much more aware of how incredible our planet is. After visiting New Zealand on my honeymoon in 2020 and marveling at the beauty of the country, I became determined to see more of my own country's beauty -- and Yosemite lived up to the hype.
