East Meets West in Istanbul… with Babies
We arrived in this dynamic city right at sunset and let me tell you…Istanbul, it’s a vibe! Turkey was a new country for all of us and we couldn’t wait to dive in. Is it Europe? Is it Asia? Is […]

Grant had visited Budapest on his Eurotrip over a decade before and it had always been on my list. (Cue, George Ezra). Budapest didn’t give us the immediate feels we had expected (I blame the area we stayed in), but […]
Our European road trip continued through Austria. Sandwiched in our itinerary between Prague and Budapest, we only spent one weekend in Vienna and we barely scratched the surface of this history-rich city! Funny story: Up until this point in my […]

On our two week vacation to Panama we spent the majority of our time in the capital city. We made it our home base of sorts and kept passing through on our trips to San Blas and Santa Catalina. Falling […]
