In these crazy times we’re living in, I’m sure so many of us are getting restless. Staying at home, staying indoors, and limiting contact with our friends and loved ones can be so trying. Especially during summer, when everyone is used to vacationing and exploring new places, it can be particularly difficult to accept that planning a big vacation during the coronavirus pandemic isn’t worth the risk. However, if you’re still craving a change of scenery, a road trip might be a safer option. I’m going to begin this post by emphasizing that I am not a doctor, just an…
Going on a road trip can be one of the most life-changing and positive experiences. However, planning a road trip is not always as easy as just getting in the car and driving — it can be easier than you think to make a mistake. I’ve gone on four cross-country road trips in the last three years, and each time I learn a little bit more about what to do, and more importantly, what not to do to have the best road trip ever. While all of these trips have been amazing times, I’ve definitely also made my fair share…
Hi friends! I’m here to chat with you today about one of my absolute favorite swim brands, Blackbough Swim. Over the last year or so I’ve accumulated a pretty good amount of Blackbough bikinis, so I figured I’d do a little Blackbough review and try on haul for you guys! I’m not affiliated with Blackbough in any way (I’m just a big fan), so I’m happy to offer you totally honest reviews of my favorite Blackbough swimsuits, blackbough swim sizing, and even a promo code for 10% off! I know buying swim online can be a huge pain so hopefully…
Hi friends! I’ve been MIA for a few days because I’ve been tackling what’s probably been the biggest challenge in my rental apartment: decorating my office, aka our second bedroom that has no windows. It’s super common in DC (and other big cities where the rent is way too high) for apartments to have “dens,” or bedrooms without windows, in order to make a one bedroom apartment a two bedroom for a more affordable price. They’re a great option for roommates or couples looking for more space, but the problem is, a room without windows is hard to make look…
I’m a pretty seasoned road tripper, but from time to time I’ll still forget some things. I can pack everything I need for a road trip, but I’ll always somehow forget that not everywhere has good cell coverage. It can be super annoying to scroll through Twitter (as a passenger) on the road to pass the time only to have tweets suddenly stop loading. It can be even worse when your service drops and you don’t know where you are! When I know I’m about to head into an area with limited cell service, I love to use this road…
Hi friends! As you may or may not know, I’d like to consider myself an expert on the modern day millennial’s road trip. I’ve taken four cross-country road trips in the last three years, and I feel like I’ve learned from experience pretty much everything you need to know to plan and carry out a successful road trip as a 20-something without children. Over the years I’ve developed a few road trip essentials that I know I absolutely must have to make sure my road trips are comfortable and go off without a hitch. As I sit in isolation and…
