Now in our final trimester, Doug and I talk often about how we are going to try our best to share our passion for travel with Maggie. We have made the commitment to travel this next year – with the understanding that it will be challenging, full of surprises and different than bk (before kid). But to share our joy of discovering new places with our little girl will bring memories unimaginable. I figured someday I could share with Maggie how many places she went before she was even born. It’s been a new experience to travel so much while pregnant (the wine tasting was out of the agenda and the morning sickness wasn’t too fun) but I have to say seeing the world with the realization that I would be bringing a new life to it has been humbling. From Fort Lauderdale to LA to Maui this little girl has been all over this country in the past 8 months.
So to Maggie in the words of our dear friend Dr. Suess: “Oh the places you’ll go. Today is your day. You’re off to Great Places! You’re off and away!”
some travel love to our little girl

Oregon. Wild, weird and wonderful.
We just spent about a week in Oregon visiting Doug’s brother Tim and his daughter. Our trip was mainly in the Portland area but we also were able to venture out to the coast and to the border of Oregon and Washington. I love how Oregon treasures it’s land. The forests, waterfalls and jagged coastlines…

The Newbie Guide to Airbnb
www.airbnb.com A few things to learn from our experience here: it needs to be the right place to be worth it. Don’t get me wrong, every place we stayed was nice but we felt most comfortable in locations that were clearly vacation properties or made to be guesthouses. While staying in Boston, we stayed in…

a trip to bring me back
Standing on the beach tonight reminded me why I love to travel so much. While I agree that it offers an escape, it also helps me see the world as a much smaller place. When I travel from a mountain to the ocean in one day and enjoy the ride with those I love most,…
