The Saturday before Easter, we took a spontaneous drive up the coast to explore Omiš. Since March is well before the busy tourist season, the town was blissfully empty—a quiet backdrop that made our adventure even more special. Giant eggs were displayed around town, adding a whimsical touch to our day. It felt like we […]
After our dreamy Valentine’s getaway to Dubrovnik, I just couldn’t shake the memory of that unforgettable Bosnian food at Taj Mahal. So, for my birthday, I convinced Daniel that another trip was absolutely needed. And thus began my 43rd Birthday adventure. We chose a cute little AirBnB perched on the hillside above the ancient city
We had US Presidents day off work and Daniel had the wonderful idea to have a weekend getaway in Dubrovnik. Dubrovnik is about three-four hours down the coast from Split, and we had been wanting to make the trip for a while. Despite seeing photos and seeing Dubrovnik as Kings Landing in Game of Thrones,

We needed some down time after we disembarked from the Queen Mary 2. So we got a hotel minutes from the port to spend a few nights in. We started in Room2 in Southampton and it was an adorable hotel with a hipster vibe. We had an amazing suite in my favorite color. The pups
What we expected and what we got on our transatlantic crossing were very different. We honestly didn’t know what to expect, except for rest and relaxation. And we did not get that. We decided to take the Queen Mary 2 to move to Europe so that we wouldn’t have to fly the pups at all.
