Three Months in Europe: Map & Itinerary
Daniel and I fondly refer to our early 2016 European backpacking trip as “Big Europe”. It was, indeed, a big trip! I’ve written travel guides and summaries of our time in each of the stops along our backpacking trip, and I thought it would be helpful to compile all of the guides onto one page… continue reading
Travel With Me // Roma! (Part 2)
After taking the train from Sorrento to Naples to Rome, we checked into our hotel (this cute place I found for a steal on Hotels.com) and got a good night’s sleep.

Known for its colorful fishing villages, its rocky Mediterranean terrain, and its… continue reading
Travel With Me // 7 Things to Do in Siena, Italy
After exploring the culture and food amidst the hustle and bustle of Florence, we were ready to get a taste of more Tuscan countryside. We escaped to the slower-paced Italian town of Siena. While smaller and less frequented than Florence, Siena isn’t lacking in things to do. In fact, the historic center of Siena is… continue reading
Travel With Me // Florence & the Tuscan Countryside
As we made our way south by train from Cinque Terre to Florence, we could not have been more excited to explore the capital of Tuscany.

Check out that post here! After Venice we headed to the west coast of Italy to Cinque Terre, a string of five… continue reading
Travel with Me // Five Days in Lake Como
Our next stop in Italy was one of our most anticipated – five glorious days of relaxation in Lake Como! We were excited to pause and take a break from the go-go-go of our backpacking trip while still getting to explore a new place. As we were there at the end of February, it was… continue reading
