A few weeks ago I had the privilege of checking something off of my bucket list. Ever since I was given a DVD of Mumford and Son’s 2012 Red Rocks performance for my birthday I have been dying to go. In August of this year I had a trip planned to visit my aunt andContinue reading “Fleet Foxes at Red Rocks”

Nearly The End
We are nearing the end of our long adventure, just two full days left! The three of us are definitely feeling the last of our excited travel energy slip away as the days seem to drag by. We are done living out of backpacks, walking the long road into town from where the car isContinue reading “Nearly The End”
I Am No Man
It’s been a little while since my last post as we have been traveling around and wifi is tricky as I’ve mentioned before.

There’s onlyContinue reading “The Road Goes Ever On and On”

A very trendy place that all the hipsters flock to. We went there yesterday when we first arrived. They make amazing avocado toast withContinue reading “Think I’m Gettin’ The Hang of This…”
So It Begins
Traveling is such an interesting experience. You plan for weeks, months, even years in advance and yet when the day of leaving arrives it’s hard to be excited and remember why you wanted to do this in the first place. At least that’s how I’m feeling at the moment with barely three hours of sleepContinue reading “So It Begins”

My two travel partners and I have been planning since last summer and we cannot waitContinue reading “I’m Going on an Adventure”
