Just a girl traveling the world one day at a time.
Reason number 281 why I love Southwest
I love the idea of having a plan and sticking to it, but when it comes to travel that does not always happen. I received a text from Southwest notifying me that my 8:15pm flight was delayed until 9:00pm. I was a little sad but there is nothing you can do about it and I…
A trip to the other wine country…Portland.
One of my very good friends from college decided to throw herself a 29 1/2 birthday party or early 30’s party or farewell to her 20’s party depending on how you want to look at it. Needless to say it was a reason for a trip to Portland for some great wine tasting. First stop…
Palm Springs for a night or whatever
All travel does not require a long plane flight or fancy dinner. Me and a good friend of mine went to Palm Springs for an overnight and spent 2 days and 1 night in the sun enjoying good company and good food without spending a lot of money. We brought our own wine and cheese…
Planning a trip to Peru for a few days
I am going to Peru with a friend in September since I found airfare for $245 roundtrip through a special deal on Travelzoo and we are super excited! Of course we are going to Machu Picchu and we are thinking we are going to Arequipa as well. I plan on traveling to Peru again in 2014…

Family time
I do an annual trip home every year with a group of my friends from high school, college and post college to go wine tasting and have a weekend of being spoiled by my mom (blog about that will come in October). She loves her little camps and started an annual cousin day camp for…
Points are a great way to travel
I am pretty loyal to Southwest for domestic travel for flights under 4 hours. Luckily, a lot of my small weekend trips take me a short distance and so Southwest is my go to airline. They have no change fees. No cancellation fees. And they make booking with points super duper easy. I just booked…
Mission accomplished: A Vegas recap
I went to Vegas to get a tan and did not step foot in a single club. Mission accomplished! I spent 5 beautiful days in Vegas with good friends and managed to avoid the clubs and the “scene” that is so much of Vegas. Monday, July 2, 2012: I woke up a little early and decided…
