Travel More. Spend Less. Live Happy.
Nothing screams weekend plans like a bomb brunch full of all the carbs my little heart can stand. Luckily, as Charlotte continues to grow more and more restaurants are choosing to make my hometown their new home as well.

So back in May, I decided to take a little trip over to beautiful Cabo, Mexico. I came across a deal via Delta for around $300 roundtrip out of Charlotte. If you have experience with flying anywhere from Charlotte, then you know this is pretty darn good. Well, I’ve been to Cabo before, but not solo. I went for my 31st birthday a few years ago with 3 other girlfriends,
Hey folks! I’ve decided to start writing about my food adventures in and around Charlotte, since many people always ask me about the places that I try. I recently had the chance to try an insane experience at The Palm Charlotte. The Palm has been around since the 20’s. Now, with an existence that long you know it has to be good. I was able to bring a guest along

If you are anything like me, then you have a bucket list of things to do around the world. On my list was the opportunity to dive the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. After finding a great flight deal from my home base, I knew I would have to seize the moment and go for it while there. I did some research about 2-weeks prior to my trip. I found
American Airlines is on its way to becoming the favorite among American based airline carriers. With the introduction of its basic economy fare last year, they have forced other carriers to drop price on certain routes as well. Charlotte is American’s second-largest hub. To ensure they are keeping Charlotte based flyers happy, the airline recently announced the addition of increased routes and new destinations. According to a memo that was
With the climate of today’s America, many people have their hopes set on “getting the heck out of dodge.” One of the easiest ways to move abroad while still earning money, is to become an English teacher (or foreign teacher in general). If you are from one of several English speaking countries (usually America, Canada, South Africa, and Australia), you have a university degree (4-year or equivalent), and a TEFL
I am a thrill seeker at heart. I am willing to try some of the most adrenaline pumping things one could try when traveling. Check out my top 5 must-try excursions from my travels thus far.

When we think of cruising, we associate it with couples, families, and groups traveling together. Cruises are a way to get an “all-inclusive” vacation at a fraction of the price than a standard vacation package. Recently, I had the opportunity to take a cruise compliments of the cruise line.
