Blog postWe’ve visited more wineries while traveling than might be healthy for two people. Every time we visit a winery that we love we want to purchase a case of wine (maybe two). Now that we live surrounded by an amazing Catalan wine region, it’s not a problem. But, when we are traveling, there is always the problem of how to travel with wine.
Whether driving with wine or flying with wine, a lot goes into figuring out what is the best wine travel bag, and that can include wine luggage o -
Blog postWhen I first started traveling for business, I always wondered how to get into airport lounges. To me, getting into the First Class Lounge was the epitome of luxury travel. At the time I didn’t know about the Priority Pass Lounge, or how to get an airport lounge pass.
But, after traveling to over 70 countries, now I know the secrets. Today, I share those secrets with you. In this post, we will answer the burning question: Is the Priority Pass worth it? We will provide a Priority Pass -
Blog postFor years, I looked at European river cruising as the province of retirees. Our Avalon Danube River cruise, though, showed us a different side of cruising, one we could easily get down with. Organized as an active cruise, our Avalon Waterways Danube River cruise single handedly altered our view of what river cruising should be.
In this post, we share our Avalon Danube River Cruise review based on our recent experiences aboard the Avalon Impression. This includes an introduction -

Blog postOne of the best things about traveling for food and drink is finding new destinations that are still slightly undiscovered. Scotland is most known for its stunning scenery as well as scotch whisky. All of the best of Scotland can be found in the region of Moray Speyside in Northeastern Scotland.
The region is most known for being home to the Malt Whisky Trail, a collection of whisky distillers dedicated to tourism. But, there is more to Moray Speyside than whisky. It’s home to some o -
Blog postDuring one of our first trips to Bangkok, Eric found a fabulous Bangkok spa close to our apartment rental. What we didn’t know at the time was that Dahra Spa offered not only one of the best Thai body massages, but also the best couple massage Bangkok, Thailand, could offer. We booked our next visit to Thailand in order to be close to Dahra.
And, when we moved to Bangkok, we choose a building only a few blocks away. I was thrilled to be within walking distance of what I now consi -
Blog postAs we learned while traveling in Austria, many Austrian traditions start with beverages, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Before exploring on this trip, though, I would have thought the rivers were filled with beer in Austria, but there is so much more to Austrian drinks than beer (although I’ll talk about beer too!).
In this guide, we share some of the Austrian alcoholic drinks and non-alcoholic drinks to taste while visiting Austria.

Blog postOur first trip to Austria was a little whirlwind. In and out between a longer stay in Budapest and on our way to Slovakia. During our second trip, though, we had a lot more time to experience Austria, from dining in Vienna to discovering food and drink experiences in smaller cities and villages. In this Austrian food guide, we share our tips on what to eat in Austria with a focus on traditional Austrian food.

Blog postWe’ve been traveling to Ireland since 1999. In that time I’ve eaten a lot of Irish brown bread and Irish soda bread. Eric’s uncle in Limerick was once a bread man, so over the years, we’ve eaten great Irish bread.
When visiting the Dingle Cookery School we finally learned how to make Irish brown bread. Here, we share our traditional brown bread recipe. It’s not as difficult as one might think. If I can do it, so can you!
What is Traditional Irish Brown Bread? -
Blog postWe spent about 18 months living in Bali, Indonesia. Even after all of our travels through Southeast Asia, nothing could have prepared us for what it was like to live on a daily basis with the animals of Bali.
I already wrote a post about living with the bugs in Bali, and this post goes hand-in-hand with that one. It’s important for travelers to Bali island to know what to expect when traveling around the island.
Is Bali Dangerous? Let’s start with the question that -
Blog postWhen we first moved to Bali, Indonesia, I was amazed at how many Bali insects and animals we came into common contact with on a regular basis. I had to quickly learn not to be all girl-like in my reaction to the bugs in Bali.
Most of them, you just get used to. After living in Bali for 18 months, though, I maybe became too accustomed to the most common insects in Bali. Since that time, one of the most common questions we get from people traveling to Bali is what are some of the things
