It’s been a long time coming! We used to do family cruises every other year, then life got busy people got older and things just came to a halt. We as an entire family haven’t been on a cruise for the past 6 years; but Summer 2017 was our come back. Dope vibes and dope…

Los Angeles, California: Birthday Edition
We’ve been long overdue for a girlfranns trip; so what better occasion to have one than my birthday! It was my first time on the West coast. I’ve only been wanting to go to LA (and Cali as a whole) since forever. The only thing holding me back was that dreadful flight; but I’m glad…

When one of your closest friends for over 10 years is getting married you must celebrate; so what better way to have the bachelorette party in the beautiful land of Barbados! We stayed at Yellow Bird Hotel in St. Lawrence Gap. Right across the street of our hotel suite is a Worthing Beach and 10…
Day Trip: Long Island Wineries & Vineyards
Long Island’s east end is known for their wine region; so Bae and I being wine lovers had to make a trip out there. I thought we were just going to 1 winery but nope we actually went to FOUR! We left home super early to beat traffic but for some reason there was still a…
Weekend Getaway: Philly Edition
Sometimes you just need a little break from your normal surroundings. Over the last couple of months I’ve been juggling work, studying, classes and trying to make time for my personal life. So a break from my normal routine was very much-needed. Philly is so close to New York (1.5 hour drive) that you could actually…

Long Beach, New York
Not all getaways have to be far! Long Beach is literally 45mins to an hour from Staten Island. About two months prior we were looking for places to go for Memorial weekend; we were hoping to come across some kind of flight deal but that didn’t happen. Then we started looking into Atlantic City- hotel…
Be a tourist in your own city
Unfortunately, I have taken a trip in the past 2 months *insert crying face and broken heart*. Fourth of July weekend I was supposed to go on a 5 day getaway to Dallas, Texas with my family for Princess Ava’s first birthday and then….my flight was delayed then officially canceled due to the weather. But…
Florida: 3 days, 3 cities & 3 beaches
