Review: Revlon Ultrasonic Conditioning Ceramic Straightener

Several years ago, conditioning flat irons came out and were highly unaffordable. Some people were willing to shell out a couple hundred dollars for a ceramic-plated straightener, and even though they are still on the market, there are many more that have become way more budget-friendly. Even so, your options are usually limited to a flat iron that just straightens. When Revlon contacted me to try out their newest hair care tool, I almost said no, because it wasn’t technically a travel gadg...

Super Useful (Fitness) Travel Links 7.6.12

So, planning my own trip for the fall to Sunny California and realizing that I’ll be walking about 42 miles per day at the various theme parks and more I’ll be visiting, I have realized that even though I have stayed in places that have had on-site exercise facilities and I’ve gone to check them out and even take pictures, I’ve not once actually gone to use the equipment provided. I’ll admit it. I’m a total exercise hater. I will walk if I have a destination or do Pilates or go to the gym i...

Where Candy Comes From 7.4.12

Happy Fourth of July to everyone in America. For the rest of you, happy Wednesday! When Eric and I took our mini-vacation to Bend last month, we packed a lot of stuff into a short amount of time. It was still pretty relaxing though, which is always key in a getaway. One of the items we ticked off our itinerary was a trip to Goody’s Chocolate and Ice Cream Factory. We are both kids at heart and wondered what a two-dollar tour would consist of. Goody’s supplies candy and ice cream to its “loc...

48 Fun Hours on a Budget in…Las Vegas

This
is a new series showing you how easy it is to budget travel anywhere, where I
also give you a quick overview of a new city each time in a brief 48-hour
itinerary.




A lot of us fancy a short
getaway throughout the year and need to balance a good time with smaller travel
costs, because if you spend too much on your getaway, you won’t be going on
that big vacation you’ve been dreaming of all year. We tend to stretch a weekend
for a quick trip – 2-4 days – and then go on our 1-2 week tr...

Party in "Las Vegas" 6.27.12

Giveaways that are still open:  Runnur mini "backpack"  |  $100 in Paypal cash



If you asked anyone what my two obsessions are (not including my family, which is a given), they will tell you travel and costumes. Yes, I do love to dress up, but more specifically, my costume obsession revolves around my love of theme parties and I think costumes just help make them that much more convincing. Often, I will ask folks to dress up for a birthday party that is in December or even Jun...

I’m Also Going to Universal Hollywood! 6.23.12

Giveaways that are still open: Runnur mini "backpack" | $400 in Paypal cash




After a long discussion about
how it would make more sense, financially, to wait another year to go to London
and Paris on our big vacation of the year, we have decided that this year will
go to our old standby: Disneyland. Now, as much as I love Mickey and the gang
and am looking forward to doing all the new things, we really can’t spend an
entire week there, so we also plan on hitting up Universa...

Super Useful Travel Links 6.22.12

Summer is officially upon us and that means ¾ of the country will be traveling somewhere. I don’t make this up – it’s an actual factual statement! That is a good portion of the American public packing up their things and vacationing for several days to several weeks. Of course, that also means that a lot of places – the beach, the mall, the pool, any theme park or water park, museums, zoos – will be overrun with tourists, and even locals. And those places aren't stupid either. They try to su...
