Hello

We are Kimberly and Brian, a married couple that started traveling together in our thirties and now that we are over forty (just barely) we want to share some of our experiences.

We live in West Michigan where we share a home with our two American Eskimo dogs & their fur. Brian is a history buff with a penchant for all things film and books. I enjoy a little bit of everything. DIY project? Sure. Vegetable gardening? You betcha. Drink coffee and do nothing? Count me in.

Since getting married we have combined our interests into traveling to multi-city destinations over the last decade. All of our trips start with a specific goal and a notebook itinerary. Think Lavender in Provence or the elusive Quetzal of Guatemala.

Our first international trip as a couple was our honeymoon to Italy and boy did we learn a ton! That was the catalyst for this blog - to share our mistakes, our holy grail moments and hopefully inspire you along the way.
