Every year for Thanksgiving my family and I travel to my aunt’s house in West Chester, Pennsylvania. This area of Pennsylvania is known for being horse country, which is pretty fitting since my aunt has her own barn full of her horses on her property. We always meet at her house, pile everyone in cars... Continue Reading →
We all know that traveling can be stressful, and one of the biggest causes of this can be the language barrier when visiting non-English speaking countries. It’s the American way to just assume that all countries speak English, which is honestly generally true, but it can be extremely helpful to learn some common phrases in... Continue Reading →

We all know traveling can be stressful, especially when traveling by plane. Whether it be a 6-hour flight with a 9-hour layover, three connecting flights, or even just a quick one hour direct flight, it’s going to be the worst part of the trip. One thing to help travel stress and anxiety is to pack... Continue Reading →
One of the biggest factors causing people not to travel is money. Flights alone can cost upwards of $2000, and hotels on average will cost between $100-$300 a night.
