New Zealand’s South Island – Plunge Into Planning A Road Trip!
New Zealand was one of our more unstructured trips, and we approached it more as a road trip into the unknown, embracing the nomadic spirit. While that was fun, those of you that know me personally understand it’s not really my style, as I am a planner through and through, even though I do have a gypsy heart. That is what inspired me to write this post. I feel like a little structure and knowledge ahead of time helps make the experience so much better.

What is it about New Orleans that keeps you coming back time after time? Hands down it is one of the most exciting cities in the US. There is really something for everyone there whether you travel for the love of food, history, culture or a just a good time. The fact that the city has survived fires, flooding and hurricanes and still thrives is a testament to the people and the prevailing tenacity of a city that refuses to be put to down to rest, even while still be the pure definition of its loving nickname, “The Big Easy.”
