I’ve wanted to write about this trip for awhile, and haven’t had time to sit down and organize my thoughts. Well, I broke my ankle and now I’m on a forced break (pun entirely intended), so here we are! Four Pass Loop is probably one of my top 3 favorite backpacking trips. K and I…Continue Reading “Backpacking Four Pass Loop in Colorado”
Late September K and I drove up to Canmore, AB after visiting Glacier National Park in Montana (also stunning). We got quite lucky with the weather where we got to see the fall foliage, and then it snowed almost a foot on our last day. It made for some beautiful snowy scenery. This post will…Continue Reading “Lazy Photo Journey of Canmore & Banff & Jasper”
We recently had the “pleasure” to test United Airlines and Airbnb’s extenuating circumstances policies. I was quite surprised by the outcome that I feel like I should write about this! Background: We recently visited a close family member who ended up having to go to the hospital with a potentially life threatening injury, and we…Continue Reading “Extenuating circumstances policies”
My parents have always wanted to visit Seville and Granada, they nagged and nagged me for years to plan a trip with them to go. Honestly if it wasn’t for them I don’t think we would have gone, but it was much more interesting than I expected! (I say this a lot…) I was fairly…Continue Reading “Mostly Southern Spain Road Trip”

Maroon Bells in the Fall (Disclaimer: I heavily edited this photo for fun) We’ve heard the road to Maroon Bells (Maroon Creek Road – CR 13) is groomed in…Continue Reading “Cross country skiing to Maroon Bells”

If you aren’t into food photos or hello kitty, this post will be very boring. K and I visited Taipei in Oct 2017. One…Continue Reading “Food in Taipei”
Shoulder season travel has become a thing while living in Summit County, CO. Shoulder season is basically when the ski slopes are closed and the weather is too shitty to do much of anything else (~May); or it’s getting frosty and kinda snowy but the slopes aren’t open yet because there isn’t enough snow and…Continue Reading “Europe Trip (former Yugoslavia Countries)”
Now my foot magically healed itself (thank you my amazing new shoes). K and I have been binge hiking. Last week we did two hikes I’ve wanted to do since the beginning of the summer! Fancy Pass / Missouri Lakes Loop: According to my GPS watch, this hike was around ~ 9 miles and ~3000…Continue Reading “Colorado Hiking: Fancy Pass / Missouri Lakes Loop & Booth Lake”
K and I went to Croatia & Slovenia (and a few of the neighboring countries briefly) in May 2017. This is the obligatory “here are some of the things I ate pictures” post. This gallery + lightbox thing was way more of a a pain in the ass than I originally thought it would be….Continue Reading “Slovenia & Croatia Food”
