Tips for Travel With Teens – Surviving Raging Hormones on The Move

By //  by Candace Sampson

This is a post filled with tips for travel with teens, or as I like to call it, making it through your next family vacation alive. Potato, potahto. Raising teenagers is the final frontier in parenting. If you can just get them through the next few years of their life and safely deliver them into adulthood, you can put a virtual checkmark next to the biggest “to-do” of your life. As someone currently on the precipice of getting to the other side, I can tell you that while travel with teens …

Tahiti on a Budget

The Islands of Tahiti on a Budget – Let’s Define Budget First

By //  by Candace Sampson

The first thing we need to establish when discussing the Islands of Tahiti on a budget is how exactly to define budget. If you have champagne dreams on a beer budget then you might be disappointed to find out you are definitely not staying in an overwater bungalow in Bora Bora. The real question though, is would you seriously pass up an opportunity to visit one of the world's most beautiful destinations because you can't sleep two feet over the water? If the answer is yes, then this post …

Best Tours In Northern Italy – Don’t Miss These Three

By //  by Candace Sampson

I’m a firm believer that there is no better way to acquaint yourself with a destination than through a guided tour. No one knows a destination better than local guides and if left to your own devices, the odds are good you’ll miss a lot, particularly if your timeline is tight. So when looking for the best tours in Northern Italy, I knew from past experience that LivItaly was our best choice. Our 14 day trip to Northern Italy started in Milan, then took us to Verona, Venice, The Dolomites, …

Turning 50 This Year? Travel Adventures for Gen-X

By //  by Candace Sampson

1969 was a very good year for planet earth. We landed on the moon, our social consciousness was raised, and music was groundbreaking. It was also the year that those of us turning 50 were born, and let's face it Gen-X is one of the coolest generations out there. Not ones to sit still, we prefer travel experiences over parties, and this year there are an abundance of travel opportunities that align perfectly with turning 50. If you're looking for an unique way to celebrate the mid-century …

The Unexpected Joy of Hiking in Italy

By //  by Candace Sampson

When Ion, my partner of under a year, asked me if I wanted to go hiking in Italy with him, I looked him dead in the eye like a teen girl meeting a Jonas Brother, and enthusiastically said “Sure, sounds fun.” Sounds fun? Apparently love makes you crazy at any age. On the inside I had some serious reservations about this trip. For starters, hiking in Italy sounded very “backpack-y” to me, like we were going to end up sleeping on the floor in hostels and eating out of tin cans. I’d somehow …
