1 Day in Virginia Beach
On one of our latest weekend trips, Sean and I took a drive to Virginia and spent a day at the beach. Being from California, I had never visited the Atlantic Ocean before, so it was a really great first experience – for me AND our dog, Raven. We live closer to Pittsburgh in PA, and we decided to drive to Virginia after work on Friday. It took us about 8 hours, but we finally made it to the beach just as the sun was coming up. I know in just one day that there is plenty more to see than we ere able to. We gathered lots of suggestions…

6 Trips You NEED To Add To Your Bucket List
2017 brought me to a lot of new and interesting places. Sean and I explored a little bit of California together before we jumped on a plane and flew to Europe. We made our way around Greece, Germany and Italy before jetting back to California and driving across the United States to our “final destination” of PA. I put that in quotes because for us, I don’t think there will ever really be a final destination, at least as long as we’re both alive and healthy.

Unfortunately, she’s a little too big to fly with us on our international trips (plus she’s a pitbull which is pretty much a forbidden breed on airplanes), but Raven still gets to come with us on lots of exciting vacations.

48 Hours in Pittsburgh On a Budget
Lately, Sean and I have been spending a lot of time exploring the city of Pittsburgh. He grew up in this area and has lived near the city his entire life, so he knows his way around pretty well. But, being from California, I haven’t spent too much time in the Steel City.

The Pittsburgh Brewery You NEED To Visit
Last weekend, Sean and I went beer tasting in Pittsburgh. As LUCK would have it, we wound up going on St. Patrick’s Day. (Do you see what I did there? Ha!) All of the bars and breweries that we made it to were super busy of course, especially the ones on the north side of town and down by the strip. Although we both enjoy craft beers, we’re not huge connoisseurs, so it wasn’t hard to find some good brews and have a good time. For us, our mission when we went was just as much about finding somewhere with an atmosphere that resonated with us, as well as having…
