Sure, we'd all love to be whisked away to the Maldives for a swoon-worthy, first romantic getaway. But, in reality, who's really going to drop 3k a night for someone they swiped right on just 3 weeks ago?

Nothing kicks nostalgia into high gear like the holidays. Spending time with family, friends and bonding over food and fun festivities. Ahhh yes, it is, indeed, the most wonderful time of year. Santa came early, by way of GMC, and delivered me the 2020 Sierra Denali to test out for a week. Talk about oh what fun it is to ride! I had so much fun testing out this beast of a beauty and hitting the streets in the Denali to relive some of my favorite childhood memories and traditions. Here are some of my...

The one thing that has been at the top of my bucket list for years is to take a cross-country road trip across the United States. So, when I discovered RVshare, the world’s first and largest peer-to-peer RV rental marketplace, it made me want to start planning out my adventure; especially as I'm in the midst of writing down my goals for the upcoming year.

We protect our homes, we protect our cars and we should also be protecting ourselves when we travel. For the long-term travelers, like myself, we don't always have the best advantages when it comes to insurance. However,...

Renting an Airbnb is a great alternative to staying in a hotel. They are often times far cheaper and you get the added luxury of having a full kitchen and other amenities that give you all the comforts of home. Having lived in Atlanta for the last 11 years, I'm no stranger to enjoying a nice staycation and Airbnb is always my first go to. So, I know a thing or two about the best Airbnbs in Atlanta and I'm going to share a few of my faves and some on my wishlist. Whether you...

Whether you are the avid adventurist looking for your next destination, or the armchair traveler planning your first epic trip, getting the inside scoop on places around the world and connecting with other like-minded travelers will make your travel planning efforts a whole lot smoother.

But, if you just type in "travel" on the Facebook search bar, you're going to be inundated with a gazillion posts and groups. Some may not be active, some may only have 10 members and some...

For example, if you're a family of 5, then yeah, your travel expenses are going to be significantly more than, say, a solo traveler. But, that does not mean there aren't ways to make travel affordable for you and your situation. I've shown you guys How to Save Hundreds Using Skyscanner and How to Snag an Airline Glitch Fare,...
