Looking Back On Some Of My Favorite Trips

Last night I was up way too late scrolling back through my camera roll and through my Instagram (@adventure__with__ellie) looking at old photos/posts. I found so many photos from years back when I first started my blog and Instagram. I saw photos from the summer before I started a new chapter of my life in…

How To Make Your Own Travel Journal/Memory Book

A new week means some new blog posts! I hope everyone is staying safe/healthy and enjoyed the weekend at home. What have you been up to to keep busy, or have you taken up any new hobbies? One thing I have been working on a little bit is my travel memory book. I started this…

Weekend Trip to Atlanta

My last trip of February was to Atlanta, Georgia. It may sound a little crazy, but my best friend (Aislinn) and I planned to meet up in Atlanta to visit the Glossier pop-up shop that opened there. Beyond going there we didn't have any plans, but it was an excuse to meet up and travel…

Mardi Gras in St. Louis

This past weekend, Connor and I headed to St. Louis for Mardi Gras. We met up with my sister and a couple of our friends. We stayed at a pretty nice Airbnb (linked here). It ended up being a pretty good location and it was giant. I was super impressed and would definitely stay there…

Weekend in Austin, Texas

I’m back from another weekend adventure, so it’s time for the recap! I got Connor a trip to Austin, Texas for his birthday. I booked this so many months back, so it was fun to finally get to go! It was extra fun because some friends moved their between us booking the trip and actually…

Travel Inspiration

Happy Tuesday! I’m here with my weekly post and I’m sure you aren’t surprised it’s about travel! I thought it would fun to share where I get travel inspiration and how I end up going to the cities I end up in. 1. Flight costs: As I have mentioned before, I often base my travels…

Miami Day 2

Surprise!! Two posts for this week! Day 2 in Miami started at the Salty Donut, which is my favorite donut shop in Miami.

Miami Day 1

As promised last week, my first Miami post is here! There will be a second post recapping Day 2 of the trip, so I can provide as much detail as possible. Connor booked us a trip to Miami as my Christmas present this year. We left Friday after work, but the flight ended up getting…

A Year Of Travel

2019 was such a great year and I would say traveling was the biggest highlight. As I have said a million times (haha), I tried to make the most of my weekends by taking shorter trips throughout the year. This year I realized the best way to travel to save money and time off from…

Arizona Trip Recap

I spent a long weekend in Arizona for my "birthday weekend." I had visited Arizona a couple times before during the year, but I never really experienced it fully. Connor and I managed to visit many different parts of Arizona during our trip and it was so much fun! Here are the highlights: The Grand…

Dallas For A Day

Connor and I took a quick trip to Dallas, TX the other weekend. I have been wanting to visit Dallas for a few months after seeing a snow cone shop I wanted to go to. We were able to find inexpensive tickets that had decent flight times, so we decided to go for it. We…
