Hi! I’m Rachel! Although I work a traditional 9 to 5 job, I live and breathe to travel with my husband Ray, and my children, Katie, Maggie, and Colin. After spending 20 years in military service and going wherever they sent me, now I’m eager to go wherever I want to go! But don’t worry, I’ll take you along for the ride!

As a typical busy family with hectic schedules, we find ourselves having to fit small trips in over long weekends to really make the best use of our time. on this site, I share how we plan trips, how we make the most of our time at a new destination, what we love about each destination, and the travel gear that makes everything easier and more efficient. I hope you’ll stick around to explore with us!
