Traveling and food always go hand in hand. You cannot fully get a grasp of a place without checking out the local cuisine. And Hawaii has it all! While there are so many restaurants to choose from, these are my top favorites. Not all of them will be on your Tourist Guide–but eat like a …
Living near an airport is one of the best and the worst things in my life. I live right by General Mitchell International Airport (Milwaukee Airport, Mitchell International, I think right now they’re talking about changing the name of it again.). Yes. An International airport, walking distance from my house. I used to work on …
If you’re like me, you probably work full time. Or work enough jobs and hours where you technically work full time. We all know that our vacation days and weekends are sacred. The way my vacation time works is it’s in a “bank”. It is used for Vacation, Illness, and Personal. Which some people think …
As soon as we packed the car up I relaxed in the passenger seat (which I never get to sit) as we made our way to Kishauwau in Tonica, Illinois (about a 2.5 hours away from Milwaukee) to enjoy some time out with nature. As a nice birthday gift, my Mom and I went for …

Of course, it was supposed to be 48 hours, but flying standby sometimes doesn’t work the way you want it to. I got delayed leaving Milwaukee, but when the plane took off I got on the flight and spent the night in Denver. Just trying to find a place that was within my budget, close …
1. Research the area where the Air BnB is. Are there any restaurants, shops, or anything to do? Is it in a good area? Is it close to the reason you’re there? For example, if I’m wanting to party the every night in Waikiki, I’m not going to stay in Kaneohe. (I mean, let’s be honest–I …
When I was a child I fell in love with an Island, my first Island. I fell in love with the humidity that frizzed my wavy hair into curls, I fell in love with the family I had just met, I fell in love with the ocean. From that first time, I knew that my …
