We’re excited to tell you all about our New Mexico road trip over the next few weeks – check out this teaser video to see what to expect!

The best part of traveling, in particular this current NYC2NOLA road trip, is catching those glimpses of people around the world going about their every day lives…

During our road trip through Northern Arizona our path crossed the famous ‘Mother Road’, Route 66, several times. On our last day we decided to drive the section of Route 66 from Seligman to Kingman, one of the few in-tact segments of the highway which originally stretched from Chicago to Los Angeles. On the way we found numerous original gas stations, motels, road side shops with classic 50s & 60s cars out front and other Route 66 memorabilia which awakens the nostalgia of the Great American Road Trip from the Midwest to the Pacific Coast.

I’ve visited the Southwest five times over the past few years, but it took me until my 6th visit this year to finally visit a ranch, a real working dude …

When we visited the Saguaro National Park we came across these handsome horses that were taking their owners on a ride around this stunning scenery of Saguaros.

We felt right at home and utterly spoiled during our two nights at Posada de Taos. We just wished we could have stayed longer. Find out why we were so drawn to this Taos hotel.

Though its name sounds otherwise, it is not located by the Golden Gate Bridge (although you’ll find two huge parks there too: the Golden Gate Park stretches for 47 blocks from Stanyan Street to the Pacific Ocean – it’s more than 3 miles long and half a mile wide, which makes it even bigger than New York’s Central Park and its 4.12 km2 (1.589 sq mi) makes it one of the largest urban parks on the planet. You can easily spend an entire day just exploring the broad parkways and the variety of activities the park offers.

Traveling during the winter is a great escape from your day-to-day life and can provide much-needed relief from the season’s stress. Even though winter is a magical time of year …

I just returned from a city break to Buffalo, a city that took me by surprise! I had no idea I’d be wowed by so much grand architecture, art, and quirky neighborhoods!

Seeing Elephant Seals on Highway 1 was a highlight of the PCH road-trip.
