Finding a base in Romania
We’ve been in Romania for just about a month so far. Our search for a base has been an interesting one as we’ve had the chance to see a fair amount of Romania in such a short time. It’s been a bit more moving around than we’d like, but it is also nice to have the freedom to just move about and find a place that we think will work for us. Bucharest Romania’s capital city is really quite enjoyable. Although, I do have to wonder if I was...
Visiting the amazingly gorgeous Peles Castle
I am a big fan of castles and similar structures. For most of my adult life, the Versailles Palace outside Paris has been my favorite.

These beaches saw thousands of allied troops coming ashore from across the English Channel (or La Manche if you are French) to free France. And...
Czech Republic travel
Like many people, I have had Prague on my travel list for quite some time. I know there’s more to Czech Republic travel than just this one city, though. I was quite happy when Kami of My Wanderlust offered to do a post for us about this beautiful country. I hope you enjoy it and maybe get inspired. Prague, one of the most beautiful, if not the most beautiful, cities in Europe is a must-visit place during everyone’s European journey....
