Back in late February and early March, I spent a week in Rovaniemi exploring, dog sledding, riding on a sleigh pulled by reindeer, freezing in the cold as I witnessed the Northern Lights dance above my head, meeting Santa, and even doing a polar plunge into a lake before running to the sauna.
After 7 days in Rovaniemi, here are some things I learned and top travel tips for visiting Laplan...
During our 2-week trip to Japan, we spent several days in Okayama and took day trips. On our last day in Okayama, we opted for a half-day trip to Himeji to see Himeji Castle, visit Kokoen Garden, and enjoy a great bowl of seafood ramen.

During our 2-week trip to Japan, we spent several days in Okayama and took day trips. One of those day trips was a "choose your own adventure" day.
We had 3 options:
-Shimanami Kaido cycling route from Onomichi if it were a perfect day
-Kibi Plain if it were nice but hot outside
-Naoshima Art Island for a rainy day
It was a rainy day, so off to Naos...

If you're staying in a place like Osaka or Okayama (or even the Hiroshima area itself) this is a day trip you must take!
We started out by meeting our guide, Joe with Travel Japan Together, and taking the ferry over to explore Miyajima Island. We loved exploring the island, boating under the floating torii gate, and visiting some temples. Then, we went back to ...
"Why are you going to Okayama?" To be fair, we got this question more than once while traveling around Japan.
I get it. It's not really a tourist hot spot like Tokyo, Kyoto, or Osaka. So when we told people where we were going, there were certainly a few raised eyebrows.
But hear us out: Okayama is incredible! The city has enough things to do on its own like Okayama Castle, Korakuen Garden,...
During our 2-week trip to Japan, we visited Nara as a day trip from Kyoto. While there, we had one big goal: to see the Daibutsu of Nara, the world's largest bronze statue of the Buddha Vairocana.
We also saw the deer in Nara Deer Park, loved the Nara National Museum, and really enjoyed the lanterns at the Kasugataisha Shrine. We also had some amazing Japanese curry!
Would you enjoy a day ...

Plus, Chris is going to tell you his story, what he's learned along the way, how he feels after ...
There are a lot of destinations where there is just that "one thing" that people plan their trip around. With Peru, it's Machu Picchu, with France, it's the Eiffel Tower. But what is something we'd plan a trip around when it comes to every country we've visited?
We dive into every country we've visited together and list out something we'd plan a trip around (I.e. we haven't done yet) or something we reco...
Just like any couple, each of us have a different approach to trip planning. While one of us really gets into the major themes and ideas of a trip (think big picture) with a focus on food (AKA Chris), some of us dive deep into logistics like flights, trains, where to stay, etc. (AKA Kat).
In this podcast episode, we discuss our approaches to travel planning when it is our turn to plan and choose the trip...
Some places leave you with unfinished business. Let's talk about it.
There are some incredible places that we've traveled to around the world. But that also means that we've certainly made our fair share of travel mistakes, leaving us with unfinished business-wishing we could have done things differently. Or it has us wanting to return to do things better this time around.
These are each of...

Are you hoping to visit Corsica? I've got a story for you!
I (Kat) did a 9-day road trip around Corsica full of fun, relaxation, adventure, and more! Aside from the stunning beaches in Corsica, there are also ample hiking trails. It is known for the GR20, a multi-day trek known to be one of the most challenging in Europe.
While I definitely didn't attempt that, I did hike a portion of it wh...
We are no strangers to hot weather travel. We've braved the Olympics last year in Paris and Lyon, honeymooned in Southeast Asia, explored Saint Lucia, spent many a summers gallivanting Europe, and more.
And now, we're about to head to Japan during the hottest time of year. This is how we're preparing for our hot and humid trip and what we've done and lessons learned from past warm weather vacations.

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
