Where to visit, and When, Why, and What the heck to do while you’re there.
I have mixed feelings about this post. On one hand, I want to share my incredible experience and hope that it inspires others but I also kind of want to keep this all to myself. The more exclusive my experience stays, the fancier I feel. But y’all – I want…
It’s here, the final day trip from Austin. We’re heading north to Georgetown, Texas! I’ve already posted about going South to New Braunfels, West to breweries, and East to parks so it’s only fitting to end with a day trip that incorporates a little bit of everything in its own…
We’re going East of Austin, Texas for part three of my four part “directional” day trips series. You can get an early start and squeeze all the sights in or just pick one to make a day trip on its own. I’ve already posted about heading South to New Braunfels…
This is part two of my four part series on day trips from Austin, Texas – one from each direction: north, south, east, west. Last week I posted about driving south to New Braunfels and now we’re going west – towards breweries, distilleries, wineries, and wide open hill country views.…

There is no better way to experience Lujan de Cuyo than by bicycle! The main town in this region is Chacras de Coria – a sleepy upscale suburb of Mendoza that is so quaint and fun to meander even without the added benefit of all the gorgeous wineries peppered throughout.…
