We spent this last week exploring the steep hills of Valparaiso, a charming bohemian port town in Chile that is famous for its street art and colorful houses.

Yesterday, Coney Island turned into mermaid central when the annual Mermaid Parade marched down the boardwalk for the 32nd time – an unforgettable summer event!

Innsbruck has it all: surrounded by a picturesque Alpine landscape, the city combines the flair of Northern Italy and the rustic feel of Southern Germany with a gorgeous medieval town center and youthful buzz year round.

This week I learned that snow is rather pretty and doesn’t (always) suck, that I can survive two days without checking my emails and that I have pretty amazing friends!

I returned to Germany in time to experience the closing weekend of Oktoberfest – three days filled with roller coaster rides, delicious treats and of course BEER!

Meet our favorite little donkey in the Alps! Every day, he and his wife greet us when we head down to the village. How’s that for a welcome?

While we were staying at the beach house, we had many little geckos that were hanging out there with us – including this one, our personal favorite!

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…

This week, we visited the beautiful Isla Del Sol which the Inca believe is the place where the god Viracocha arose from Lake Titicaca to create the world.

The German car company Volkswagen produced its famous Beetle in Puebla, Mexico, from 1967 until 2003, where it held its classic 50s look until the very end. The Beetle reached cult status in Mexico and can be seen everywhere.
