Have you heard an elk bugle? It sounds almost like

Have you heard an elk bugle? It sounds almost like a high pitched scream 😱 From mid September through October is mating season. The buck uses his call for dominance, locate other bulls, or attract a mate. We saw several huge herds at Rocky Mountain National Park, the 3rd most visited National park in the country. Catch them roam and bugle at sunset in the Moraine area of the gorgeous park 😘

Pro Tip: Currently from 9am-5pm you need a park pass ticket to get in which are normally sold out. But starting at 5pm visitors don’t need a day ticket but just pay for parking at $25. Perfect time for some of the most awe inspiring sunset hikes you’ll ever see 🙌

Enjoy these panoramic views of the flat irons and scenic downtown Boulder in the Presidential Suite 🤩 The Hotel Boulderado has spacious suites that’ll make you feel fabulous. The classic Victorian decor is like going back in time but with a modern twist.

We also loved the attention to detail and intricately made furnishings in our suite. If you love history and adventure, the Hotel Boulderado delivers in style 😘

The Hotel Boulderado’s historic glamour has over

The Hotel Boulderado’s historic glamour has over a century of piquant stories. This is the very first luxury hotel built in Boulderado, CO 1908 has been impeccably preserved. We were welcomed to a breathtaking grand stain glass ceiling and staircase 😯

The painting is of a debutante who sadly never married. Her large oil painting adorns the top of the staircase as if she still awaits for the love that will never be. Her hope is captured beautifully. Many more pieces in this hotel that have such stories, giving guests a unique experience.

No matter what fate has in store for us, our experiences can bring inspiration to artists and beholders to appreciate the wonders in life 😘

“When you play the Game of Thrones, you win or die.” -Cersei in GOT. Love Game of Thrones? Even if you don’t, the GOT Tour is a must in Malta. There’s a reason why Malta is known to be the Hollywood of Europe. Tons of blockbuster hits and shows are filmed in Malta and her islands.
Do you recognize any of these structures? The second is St Dominic’s Church in Rabat where the famous line was delivered by Cersei at this fountain. Other pics are just a few of the ancient structures we got to see throughout Malta, there’s many more. See the places, deets, pics, and amazing scenery that made Season 1 of GOT famous. Link in bio and search Malta 😘 •

“There are things known and there are things unk

“There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception.”-Aldous Huxley

What is it about doors that tell such stories? In the “Silent City” of Mdina, its full of mystical doors that are over 4000 years old! Imagine the mysteries, adventures, and secrets of the generational lives that walked through these doors 😯
Don’t miss this unique city fortress when visiting Malta. The amazingly well preserved city only has a population of approx 300 people and is incredibly clean. It’s like walking through an ancient storybook. See more of our Mdina adventure in our Game of Thrones tour in Malta, link in bio and search Malta 😘

Meet Gozo, Malta’s sister island in the Mediterr

Meet Gozo, Malta’s sister island in the Mediterranean. She’s rugged and perfect for an adrenaline rush. Gozo has some of the most challenging rock climbing and scuba diving sites in the world. The best and funnest way to get around the rough terrain is by quad. We loved zipping around this island to discover its unique beauty 🔆

Don’t miss Gozo Island when you visit Malta. Check out more of this hidden gem on our site. Search Gozo in link in bio 😘 •

Malta has intense dreamy sunsets and European flair 🌅 Its fascinating history and enchanting sites make it one of the most unique islands in the Mediterranean. Only an hour’s flight from Nice or 80 minutes from Rome, you will be super happy you added Malta to your itinerary 🤗

We stayed here in Sliema right on the Harbor and enjoyed our balcony views for 5 evenings. Sunrise is just as breathtaking watching the boats sail. There’s so much to do and see in Malta along with her 2 very different but gorgeous sister islands, Gozo and Comino, that we could’ve easily stayed several more days.
For more inspiration and itinerary ideas, search Malta- link in bio 😘 •

We’re so ready for more adventures! Excited to see more and more pics with places opening up again. Though it feels slow for reopenings, your insta pics are giving me hope.

The views on this suspension bridge are so spectacular, we forgot we’re scared of heights (just don’t look down 😅) The Sky Pilot Suspension Bridge is thousands of feet high & 328 ft long to cross.
Bridges seem to symbolize connection which is sorely missed right now without being able to gather and interact with others. There’s light on the other side though 🤞 that this will soon pass and we can get back to exploring the world soon 🌎 Going into the weekend with positive vibes 🙌 •

The She Said, He Said...Relationships can be diffi

The She Said, He Said...Relationships can be difficult at times. Especially if you’ve been married for as long as we have- 9.5 years 😳 But as a traveling couple, we’ve learned a lot of patience and understanding for one another. Our travel adventures are not always perfect, and having someone reliable to be by your side when 💩hits the fan is everything🙌 You also never know who someone truly is until there’s a problem. As we overcome each trial and tribulation in travel or life, our commitment to each other gets stronger 💪
We travel for the love and therapeutic nature it facilitates. And prolly a lot more fun than couple’s therapy 😅 Instead of buying tangible products that just accumulate dust, gift each other experiences. The memories are priceless. Sending you all some 💗 today 😘 •

“O Canada” is the national anthem of Canada and befittingly so. Look at the sensational views that’ll make you say ohh and ahh 😯🤩 We were standing on one of several viewing platforms at the Sea to Sky Summit in Squamish. We went in April a couple of years ago and the weather was really nice 👍
Sadly the gondolas to the top are still closed for now due to Covid but if you’re a hiker and climber, you’ll be rewarded at the top with sweeping views of the Howe Sound, rainforests, and mountains ⛰💙😍 If ever in Vancouver B.C., this is worth a detour. Insider’s look on how to Create Your Own Private Tour in Vancouver B.C. with link in bio 😘 Happy Hiking 🥾 •

If Sleeping Beauty existed she would be the sculpt

If Sleeping Beauty existed she would be the sculpture “Sleeping Ariadne” at the Vatican Museum in Rome, Italy. It’s so beautiful, it’s long been thought to be Cleopatra throughout the centuries because she’s wearing a snake bracelet. Apparently Cleopatra killed herself with a bite of a viper 🐍
There are many fascinating stories behind the countless artifacts that are found at the Vatican. Did you know the Vatican has 54 museums and stretch for 9 miles? WoW 😯😍 We avoided the massive crowds in the Summer time by taking a small group private VIP after hours tour. We had less than 15 in our group vs. 17,000- 25,000 daily visitors touring the secret rooms, famous highlights, and the Sistine Chapel all to ourselves, see video in post -link in bio💙

Imagine roaming the empty Vatican halls and enjoying the museums with zero crowds. It’s possible with an exclusive VIP tour at closing time, you’ll get the place to yourself! But Don’t pay thousands of dollars though, check out our post that’ll tell you the direct operator that’ll get you the best prices and our Insider’s Look into the secrets of the Vatican.
