But that’s getting to be an outdated way to tell someone’s a tourist because we have Google / Apple Maps on our phones now, or we could download maps of specific areas to our phones as well. But what ways that are still pretty common, can you tell whether someone…

What are some US cities that really do it up for Christmas? My husband and I have committed to taking one trip a month to finish the year. We have September-November covered but are looking for something in December.

Are there any other cities with a “big” small town vibe with a beach that I’m un-ware of? I lov…

Quiet cities around the world? By quiet, I mean the city itself and the people. Sometimes where I live can be overwhelming, and I just want to travel to a place without many cars. Where people do not play loud music, and they talk quietly. But I still like urban areas because of the interesting architecture, shops, and the liveliness of people around. Is there any place in th…
