It has been quite some time since I wrote my first post on the blog. I created this blog for our travel escapades rather than our day-to-day. We ventured to Ireland in September of 2017, which ignited our wanderlust. In early 2018, the building of our first house was completed. A couple months after moving in, we brought home a rambunctious, amazing puppy. Those were our adventures for 2018, and it was, without a doubt, a great chapter in our lives. Now here we find ourselves, staring down 2019 and wondering what awaits us. I visited my best friend in Missouri last month and found myself lost in thought. As I sat on the plane gazing out over the clouds, my mind was focused on the possibilities of distant lands to explore. It all seems so endless when you’re flying above the clouds.

There were many conversations over the last year of our top travel destinations. We concluded we definitely wanted to explore more of Europe. Our thoughts rested on London, Paris, and Rome. We’ve been able to dedicate ten days to our vacation. We know it’s not enough to enjoy each city fully, but it will give us a good taste! Our plan is to fly into London, ride the train to Paris, ride the overnight train to Rome, then fly home. It will be a whirlwind vacation with so much to see and do. I’ve already started counting the days until we leave. It’s still a few months away, so check back later for my post with all our travel details and pictures after our return!
