Sommartid in Sweden (Summer 2018)
Last summer I had the chance to go to a conference in Uppsala, Sweden, and decided to make my work trip a girls trip. Our youngest, W, had a very sweet obsession with all things Swedish, so it only seemed right that she get to see Sweden for herself. Her big sister and my mom […]

A Carolina Wedding and Birthday (Spring 2018)
It’s the end of May 2018 and I’m well behind on updating the blog. One of my 2018 resolutions is to get caught up, and needless to say, I haven’t been faring well… That doesn’t mean we haven’t been traveling, through. As a family over the past year, we traveled to Connecticut (a few times), […]

Winter Park, CO (Winter 2018)
A full 15 months and a handful of incredible trips have passed by since my last post, but I’m committed to getting back on track in 2018, and this past weekend provided just the chance. C and I recently celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary and decided to commemorate the occasion with a long weekend in […]

Mato Grosso do Sul – The Nebraska of Brazil (Fall 2016)

São Paulo: Arte por arte, arte por política (Fall 2016)

Ihla Bela – Muita Bela (Fall 2016)
Getting There If you’ve ever said, “Gee, I don’t much like flying” or “Four hours is a really long time to be in an airplane,” or “Wow, that three hour time change is really getting to me,” I would not recommend traveling from Hong Kong to São Paolo, Brazil. There were no direct Hong Kong-São […]

Hong Kong: The Center of the World (Fall 2016)
Hong Kong was the one stop on our trip that was purely based on curiosity. For once, we had no work commitments or deadlines. Instead, we just had a new city to explore and two little girls to take to Disneyland. Arriving in Hong Kong feels a lot like landing at globalization’s epicenter. The […]

Two Magical Days at Hong Kong Disneyland (Fall 2016)
Let me start by saying that we are not “Disney People,” or, at least, we weren’t. While we had talked about taking the kids to Disney before, it was never really a travel priority. When we were planning this trip, though, we knew that we wanted to incorporate some special activities for the girls, as […]
