Greetings from Park City, Utah!

Greetings from Park City, Utah!

Greetings from Park City, Utah! I’ve been here for about eight hours and so far my impression is that it’s similar to Breckenridge, CO, but at a noticeably lower altitude. That’s a good thing because I adore the vibe of Breck — a fun ski town with a mining heritage — but I have found […]

I did some awesome traveling this year, but I wish I could have done even more — and visited all of the places that I featured on this blog. I'm lucky to have so many people willing to report about their trips so I can maximize the amount of destinations covered on Travelogged, but the […]

Merry Christmas! Does visiting Rockefeller Center in the bitter cold at the ridiculously crowded time of 7 PM on December 23rd count as adventure travel? Well, it should!

Some of My Favorite Christmas Ornaments Are Also Some of My Favorite Souvenirs

Some of My Favorite Christmas Ornaments Are Also Some of My Favorite Souvenirs

I love buying souvenirs when I travel. No matter how many pictures I take, I still want a tangible memory. Something that I can hold in my hand and think, I was there. But I won't just buy any old souvenir. Oh no, it has to be perfect — at least in that moment when […]

San Juan Marriott Resort Runs a Cool Contest on Twitter

A lot of hotels are on Twitter, and as a travel blogger, I follow a lot of them. Not only are they great contributors to the Twitter-wide travel conversation, but sometimes they offer Twitter-only deals. Starting tomorrow morning (Monday, Dec. 21st), the San Juan Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino is doing something a little different […]

BYOB: Bring Your Own… Bed Bug Repellent?

When I travel, one of my fears is that the hotel where I'm staying will have bed bugs. Now, I've never actually encountered a bed bug (either at a hotel or elsewhere) but I never know when my luck will run out! From what I can tell from the reviews on Tripadvisor.com, bed bugs don't […]

Cayman Islands Marathon: Running in Paradise

Cayman Islands Marathon: Running in Paradise

No, I didn’t run the Cayman Island Marathon. But I certainly applaud those who did, as the marathon started at 5 AM. That’s why it looks so dark in the photo — in the Caymans, the sun doesn’t rise this time of year until almost 7 AM. The reason why the race starts so early […]

Grand Cayman Really Lights Up for Christmas

Grand Cayman Really Lights Up for Christmas

I knew I couldn't stay forever, but I wish I could have stayed for at least […]
