We picked up where we left off in 2020 with a frantic travel pace that included 5 countries in 4 days. Albania, Montenegro, Kosovo, North Macedonia, and Corfu, our second visit to the magical country of Greece. Cheers to the 60+ country club, with many more countries and adventures to come.

We have 3 simple rules of travel that we believe can help anyone have a more enjoyable in-transit experience. Be Early, Pack Light, and don’t try to see Everything in one day or one trip. 1. Don’t Be in a Hurry, Be Early You wanna know who isn’t having fun […]
Split is truly an ancient city. When we say ancient, we mean first century ancient. While Diocletian’s Palace, the major site most closely attributed to the foundation of Split, was built in 305 A.D., the city itself is believed to have been established by the Greeks as early as the […]
From the moment we stepped off the train, almost 7 hours earlier than planned thanks to JJ’s slick train maneuvering in Marseille, we could tell that Menton was our kind of town. We came to Menton from Marseille via the SNCF rail, France’s major train line. This was the […]
Marseille was founded by the Greeks in 600 B.C. Despite it’s Vieux-Port or “Old Port” being one of the major ports in all of France, Marseille barely cracks the Top 10 of most popular or most visited French cities. Tourists who choose to sleep on Marseille are missing out on […]
Geneva is widely known as both a banking hub and the watch making capital of the world. It sits ideally and picturesquely on Lake Geneva (or Lac Leman), in the shadow of the Swiss Alps and Mont Blanc. When you are on the road as we set out to be […]
We booked this unforgettable tour through Trip Advisor (Viator). We like Viator because Trip Advisor, their parent company, is basically the most trusted name in travel advice. We also like the convenience of the Mobile Tickets available through Viator’s App, that can be added to our iPhone mobile wallets. No […]
Marrakech, Morocco marked our first ever visit to the continent of Africa. Marrakech was also officially our 8th city to visit on our year long journey. Morocco was our 3rd country, and Africa our 2nd continent of the trip as well. Marrakech is a former imperial city that uniquely incorporates […]
Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia, an autonomous community of Spain, is one of the most buzzed about cities in the world. This was JJ’s first visit to this historic city, and my second. Many of our friends, family, and random people we come across all seem to have Barcelona on […]
Mallorca is the name of the island and territory in Spain that we were visiting, and Palma is the name of the capital and port city of Mallorca. That may sound basic enough, and you may be asking “Len, why are you mentioning such basic facts?” The reason is that […]
Cartagena is another Spanish coastal city that is steeped in history. Founded in 220 B.C., it has a great deal of cultural significance to Spain’s history, and also plays a large part of Roman history. One of the major landmarks of Cartagena that we did at least walk by is […]
We are Len and JJ, happily married from Fort Worth, TX, and in April 2019, we took a year off from work to travel the world. Our epic adventure spanned 6 Continents, 40 Countries, 100 Cities, 75,000 Miles, and over 300 Consecutive Days of travel by land, air, and sea. We miraculously made it back to the states in March 2020, right before the COVID-19 lockdowns took place.
