About Me + Him

Right after my husband and I got married back in 2011, we took an incredible honeymoon that changed our goals forever. It all started in Venice, Italy and it hasn’t stopped since. I absolutely head over heels fell in love with traveling.

By making travel a priority in our lives, we’ve been able to visit 17 countries and 100+ cities together.

This blog is a combination of everything I know; my background in journalism and marketing, plus my passion for travel and photography.

I do not travel full time and would not want to. I’m happy having a home base and playing board games on the couch sometimes, ya know?

I work remotely doing marketing/advertising and everything that has to do with that world, and I dedicate a lot of time to this blog. My husband, Jorge/Porge/Gorge, is a 9-5 engineer but he helps me with the blog as much as possible. He’s rather amazing.

We live in the beautiful city of Chicago. Have you been? You should come!

We love spending our downtime trying new restaurants and cafes in our hometown, watching comedies, fostering dogs, and dog sitting. Did I mention dogs?

When I’m not busy doing everyday life, I’m dreaming up new places to visit and planning some incredible trips. So, here I am sharing how we make it work, how you can make it work, and how a little careful planning can get you across the world.
