My breath taken away
Considering we’re not hikers, we do recognize that some trails are way better than others. There are some where you don’t see anything all day long. Others where you wonder why you’re even on the trail in the first place. Others will always tell you “you’re almost...
The Valley of Waterfalls

101 Things to See in Stockholm
Our day started at 6:00am and we didn't get to our room until after 11:00pm. What did we do? Let me break it down for you: 1. The spa. I know - it's hard to feel sorry for us having to wake up so early, especially when it was 100% worth it. After soaking in the pools,...
