Moving to and Living in Stuttgart, Germany.
Again, this needs to be a Part 1. We had no idea how huge the island of Crete actually was. We had been to Greece for my birthday two years ago for an amazing vacation booked through an Amex travel agent to Athens, Mykonos and Santorini (must stay, or at a minimum have a cocktail...

I am calling this one Part 1 because we MUST go back to finish our list and make it down to Dubrovnik too. That will be Part 2. We loved Split for a bunch of reasons mainly being the food, the price of the food, the city's proximity to the water and islands, it's history, and...the... Continue Reading →
Bucket list item checked. We booked a long weekend in Holland to take the trip out to see the famous tulip fields and botanical garden, Keukenhof.

It snowed the weekend we arrived which really kicked off the Christmas market season experience. The Neue Rathaus at Marienplatz is gorgeous with the famous moving Glockenspiel we were lucky...

In under 4 hours drive from Stuttgart is Luxembourg. Luxembourg brings the count up for our one country per month travel right on track to 8 not including the US trips, or the previously planned trip through Greece before the job move to Germany. An update, I began working full time now as well, and... Continue Reading →
