Costa Rica, in photos...

I just wanted to share a few photos from our girls' trip to Costa Rica in January.  We rang in 2013 under a sky full of fireworks, ate fish tacos every single day, learned how to surf and spent a beautiful, sunny day sailing on a catamaran.  It was an unbelievable trip, with a group of the most amazing friends a girl could ask for.

*If you find yourself in Costa Rica, I highly recommend checking out the Tico Adventure Lodge in Samara and Sailing Hibiscus in Tamarindo!

Vancouver, in photos...

As summer draws to and end I thought I would share a few photos from my quick trip to Vancouver in July.  A few close girlfriends, lots of long lunches by the sea and an impromptu rowboat excursion on Vancouver Island made for a great getaway!    

*I just found this great city guide to Vancouver via This is Glamorous.  Check it out here!

Hawaii, in photos...

Our trip to Hawaii was a short one {only 4 days} but we came back feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. We watched a dear friend get married, ate seafood every day and sat by the ocean reading books and drinking Mai Tais.  Life is good friends.  Life is very good.

Sedona: Anniversary Getaway

I can't believe Kiwi and I have been married for 2 years! To celebrate our second anniversary, we headed up to the red rocks of Sedona for some eating, drinking, hiking and relaxing. It's cliche but true, time flies when you're having fun. Happy two years my love!

*Kiwi would like me to clarify that by hiking, I mean stopping every five seconds to take photos while he patiently waits for me. Folks, I've got myself a keeper.

New Zealand: In Photos...

Words cannot express what a phenomenal time we had in New Zealand...it was truly the trip of a lifetime. Instead of attempting to describe it, I thought I would let the photos do the talking. Enjoy!

*In other news, New Zealand WON the Rugby World Cup! The entire country is in a state of euphoria. What a perfect end to our journey!

more from sydney

Just looking at these photos puts a smile on my face. We only spent a few days in Australia but we certainly made the most of it. Sydney was all about sun, sand and seafood. We explored the Blue Mountains and Bondi Beach, got up close and personal with a few kangaroos and made a special trip to the Sydney Fish Market for an al fresco lunch. We were sad to leave Sydney but we couldn't wait to get to New Zealand for the Rugby World Cup!

*David Lebovitz just did a great write up of some fantastic spots to eat in Sydney. Just reading it makes me hungry! Check it out here.
