An Illuminating Trip to India

February 2, 2016 By Lauren 4 Comments

In full honesty, India was the country I was most nervous about visiting on our one-year RTW trip.

Our Utopian Stopover in Singapore

July 24, 2015 By Lauren 7 Comments

I’m wracking my brain to try to figure out a more literary way of describing Singapore other than “ridiculously awesome.” The safest city in the world. A cleaner and friendlier NYC. As filled with luxury malls as Las Vegas and shopping streets that are like Chicago’s Magnificent Mile on steroids. Sparkling, affluent, businesslike, but still culturally […]
