Driving is the New Flying

I was thinking about travel a lot this weekend, which is not unusual at all.  I’m always thinking about traveling especially since my job deals with traveling.  I thought about where I had traveled to since I moved to Denver in September and there wasn’t many trips I had been on.  One to New Hampshire…

Checks and Balance

As I sat at my nine to five desk today, I felt a twinge of pain when I looked at my phone at  4:23 pm and read a text.  At 4:22 pm I received a text from my friend Becky that said, “330 to tel aviv.” Becky and three of my other friends were on…

And We’re Back

This was my first trip in, I don’t-know-how-long, that I didn’t bring my computer.  For almost a solid four days I was computer free.  I must say it was pretty amazing.  I also bought a ticket, so no standby traveling for me this time, which was also pretty amazing. This Thanksgiving we went to New…

Falling for Fall

Colorado has been great for many reasons, but one of my favorites has been hiking.  A couple of weekends ago my roommate and a couple of friends and I went to Aspen for the weekend.  We were staying with my friends Aunt and Uncle who wanted to wine and dine us all weekend—I won’t argue…

Munich- Best Pretzels and Beer

Vienna- Best Architecture on Every Corner

Vienna is the capital of Austria and the “city of music” which is the city where the waltz originated.  We waltzed our way into that city without a real plan, which was sort of a trend with us on this trip.  We first headed over to see a building made by my friends Phil and…

Budapest- Best View

After a seven hour bus drive, we were more than ready to explore Budapest. We headed straight to our hostel  to meet up with the rest of our group and get the night started!  We stayed at Bazar Hostel , which is on the Pest side, in Budapest and actually enjoyed the hostel.  It was in…

Drivin, Drivin, Drivin

I am happy to tell everyone that I have accepted an internship with 5280 magazine!  The only thing is, that it is in Denver, Colorado (hence the title of this post).  Some might see this as a bad thing, to leave the beautiful city of Charleston, that is–but I love Denver.  I love the mountains and…

Praha- Best Street Food

The first stop on my Europe trip was Prague, or as the Czech say Praha.  My three girlfriends and I landed at 10 am and were leaving on a 3 pm bus the next day.  With only a little over 24 hours we knew we had to hit the ground running and never stop.  We…
