DUBLIN: What to SEE, DO, EAT, DRINK & HOW to GET AROUND/WHERE to STAY
Sean and I had the chance to spend about a week in Dublin while we visited Ireland. Just like most cities, Dublin has a little something for everyone. There’s plenty of history to be explored, hip coffee shops and an incredibly fun night life. Whatever you’re visiting for, Dublin has you covered.

A Weekend in Washington D.C.
Over Memorial Day weekend, Sean and I took a trip out to our nation’s capital. We were able to book a place super last minute in Baltimore. We would have loved to book somewhere a little closer, but we were happy just to have a place to stay that didn’t cost us a fortune. I had visited Washington DC before with some of my 8th grade class as part of a school trip, but Sean had never been, so I was excited to share this experience with him. We had a full two days in the city, and with a limited budget, we found this was one of the best…

Virginia Beach on a Budget
Sean and I LOVE traveling and exploring new places, but we also have this desire to do that full time. So for us, that means taking a lot of weekend trips throughout the year that don’t break the bank or set us back on our goals. We recently took some time to visit Virginia Beach, and although we only had a day to explore what has become the largest city within the common wealth, we found that there were plenty of ways to have fun that didn’t put a dent in our wallets (or our goals).

3 Ways to Save Money on Accommodations
Accommodations can be the largest expense when traveling. Even something small like a weekend trip can start to rack up the bill. Sean and I have grown accustomed to scouting out the best deals and pushing ourselves to save money wherever we can. As two people who still work full time, we’re limited on how often we can travel, but not on how much we can get out of our trips. By saving on where we stay, we allow ourselves to enjoy more EXPERIENCES.

4 Scams to Avoid In Italy
Italy, and Florence specifically, has been one of our favorite places to visit so far. The food, the culture and let’s be honest – the wine were all incredible. We made our way from Venice through Florence and ended in Rome. Each stop along the way taught us a different lesson and added to our list of “experiences to avoid”. I think we can agree that Rome taught us the most by far. Sean and I were lucky in that we did our research ahead of time. Otherwise, I can totally imagine us coming home totally scammed out. If you’re going to be traveling to Italy this summer, we recommend…

Our Top 10 “MISTAKES” Traveling Abroad & What to Do Instead
Sean and I took our first trip abroad together a couple months ago, and it was absolutely incredible! We traveled through Greece, Germany and ended in Italy. It was our first time being outside of the country, and it was our longest trip to date. In total, we spent three weeks in a paradise filled with crystal clear waters, sandy beaches, the best gyros, endless amounts of wine & beer, an overwhelming amount of pizza, and flavor after flavor of gelato. We watched some of the most beautiful sunsets, tanned on the shores of some of the world’s best beaches, ate everything from authentic street food to four-course cuisine, and…
