  • The dream of the 90s is alive in Great Barrington 🥂
  • “Just add three letters to Paris, and you have paradise.” – Jules Renard ✨🇫🇷 ⠀ I had to spend my first time on the European continent in Paris. I studied French from grades 7 – 12 and even earned a minor in college! I wish I would have had the time to study abroad when I was younger, but I’m grateful that I was able to experience Paris in the winter of 2018. ⠀ ⠀ There’s something magical about wandering the halls of the Louvre and warming up with a café au lait during a light snowfall.⠀ ⠀ From the art to the food, the fashion and awe-inspiring architecture, the City of Lights has a little something for everyone.⠀ ⠀ Read 21 quotes to inspire you to experience one of my favorite European cities #ontheblog #linkinbio
  • "You should dye your hair."⠀ ⠀ "I hear Americans get drugged."⠀ ⠀ "Are there terrorists?"⠀ ⠀ I've stayed in a lot of places that are considered "dangerous" and these are the comments/questions I get the most. ⠀ ⠀ My response is always the same.⠀ ⠀ Altering my appearance to "blend in" is silly and not all parts of Central & South America or the Middle East are dangerous. In Israel, you're going to see soldiers with machine guns in public places. Expect to see the same in most of Latin America outside of resorts. ⠀ ⠀ If you're looking for trouble you're bound to find it, regardless of location. (And as a writer who covers oppressive/corrupt governments, I know I'm not always going to be the most welcome wherever I go.)⠀ ⠀ But, I choose not to live in fear. ⠀ ⠀ (#TBT to these crystal clear waters in the Dominican Republic)
  • Drunk or just drunk in love?? 🥂😅🧐
  • With #BlackFriday quickly approaching, be cautious about ads featuring "cheap flights" or "great vacation deals." If something seems too good to be true, it usually is. ⠀ ⠀ If you're looking to book your 2020 travel soon, have an idea of standard ticket prices as you search. ⠀ ⠀ For example, I’m not impressed by round trips to New York from Europe for $500+ when I know that I can probably find something cheaper from Chicago without having to use my flight points or spend the time to get from Indianapolis to NYC.⠀ ⠀ The way I see it, round trips from the Midwest to major cities in Europe like London, Paris, or Zurich are reasonable if priced $400-$600. It’s an incredible deal if you can find a round trip like this for $400 or less.⠀ ⠀ One ways to Europe from New York are reasonable for $200-$300 but are especially good deals if you can get them for $200 or less.⠀ ⠀ And any flight from the Midwest or East Coast to Asia for $1,000 or less is always a great deal IF they are nonstop or have one short layover.⠀ ⠀ Read more about how I buy cheap plane tickets #ontheblog ⠀ (Oh and I booked Colombia 🇨🇴 Send your recommendations my way!)
  • Hey, @kylepierce17 can we just get married next weekend? I’ll see what our priest has going on. #307DaysToGo 😆
  • #TenYearChallenge (Closer to 9 years apart, though.) Same hair cut, same desire to wear all black, SAME PIECE OF HAIR THAT STICKS TO THE SIDE!, better eyebrows! 🤔🤣
  • An honest review of camel milk: the series. 🐫 SWIPE 😂
  • I went with a bare face to TWO meetings this morning?! I’ve always struggled with my skin and finding a good dermatologist, skincare from @the_lassi_indpls, and @michianamicroblading have been instrumental in taking care of acne and scarring from my teenage years + thin and frail brows. Plus moisturizing. And drinking water. And washing my hands before I touch my face. And wearing sunscreen. #AsSheIs
  • One of the biggest reasons why Americans don’t travel abroad – other than not having a passport – is the cost of airfare. Rising taxes, hidden fees, and baggage add-ons don’t help, but if you can manage to travel only with a carryon and during the offseason, then it IS possible to travel frugally. ⠀ ⠀ My roundtrip from Cincinnati to Iceland? $300⠀ Chicago to Paris? Close to $350⠀ One way from JFK to London? $290 ⠀ ⠀ I don’t usually travel outside of the U.S. during Q4 (because it’s expensive) but I’ve got Colombia, Peru, Iceland again, and wherever we decide to go on our honeymoon on my list for 2020. I’ve written a list of the biggest ways I save money on plane tickets #ontheblog. ⠀ ⠀ Where do you want to go in 2020?
