  Traveling and the Coronavirus

  Everywhere I look, there it is – hysteria around the pandemic of Coronavirus.

I’m not a health professional, so I’m not […]

  A Local’s Guide to Puerto Rico

  I did a Puerto Rico travel guide the first time I visited the caribbean island, but I have to say, I barely scratched the surface with that one! This trip was so different for Ryan and me for a few reasons, but mainly because we didn’t work as much as we usually do. We actually took the time to have fun, relax, and let loose.
