The underdog of our honeymoon was Romania. I had been waiting forever to see Turkey and Greece, and I was excited about Croatia and the good things I'd heard about Dubrovnik; but I didn't have much background or information or really any idea what we were getting ourselves into visiting Romania. We actually threw it …

Honeymoon Travel: Greece
As I mentioned in an earlier post, I originally thought we should go to Turkey and Greece for our honeymoon. Due to a fairly involved travel schedule in order for us to do everything we wanted, we opted to set that trip aside for another time when we're on a regular vacation and planned a …
Honeymoon Travel: Italy
Our honeymoon cruise took us to two ports in Italy--Venice and Bari. Venice was a very popular port for people joining and leaving the cruise--I would say the majority of passengers actually began and ended there. We had looked at doing the same but flying in and out of Italy was nearly twice the cost …

Literary Travels: Vive la France

The second half of the fiance's work trip took us to France where he had additional work meetings as he and fellow company colleagues met with customers at the 2013 International …
Travel for His Work: Switzerland
I can't believe we were just in Switzerland last week--it's incredible how fast time flies, especially when your 10-day vacation spits you out right where you left off in real life. Wedding planning, work, summer activities, oh my! The fiance had a free day in Geneva the day before I arrived, and he had to …
