For the past couple of years, Sarah, my best friend from college, and I have planned a girls trip in the winter months to escape the seasonal depression of Denver and Chicago. It's one of my favorite weekends of the year filled with self-care, shopping, fresh air, and copious cups of tea. We intentionally plan this weekend to have little to no plan so we can be more present. There's no better place to unwind than along the California Coast. Everything in this guide has been tried and vetted by yours truly! As always, I'm happy to help you plan a custom itinerary for your trip to Big Sur! Just reach out to me directly (:

When you think picturesque fall leaves, Door County is what you should imagine! This county is located in the north eastern corner of the state. The best time of the year to visit is September and October. Small villages and quaint main streets wrapped around by nature's beauty, make this county a weekend getaway destination. It's about a five hour drive from the Twin Cities or a four hour drive from Chicago. Having a car or biking is a must!

"If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a movable feast." 🎉 Hemingway, writer of the Lost Generation that he is, has lived the grand bohemian life in Paris, during his twenties. His experience of Paris has changed his life, for it is where he discovered his writing style and met some of the most inspiring people of his time: Gertrude Stein, Francis Scott Fitzgerald, James Joyce and Ezra Pound, among others... With this guide, you'll be able to explore Paris with Ernest Hemingway, at your own pace: the places where he lived, his favorite restaurants and cafes, the homes of his friends, and the neighborhoods that inspired him.... Hemingway arrived in Paris after his marriage with Hadley, when he was 21 and a young unknown reporter for a Chicago newspaper. He left the city 6 years later, after his divorce, and he had become a famous novelist with his first novel The Sun Also Rises 🌞 This extensive guide contains: - 30 places and their history - the complete and precise itinerary to go from one place to another - pictures, books extracts and many anecdotes to explain the importance of each place 📚 - some historic, architectural and cultural notes, to help you appreciate the neighborhood you will see along - a reading list of books to continue your journey... The tour is approximatively 7 km long, and can be done in around 3 hours of walking, or more if you like to take your time. I strongly advise you enjoy the journey and stop at some of the restaurants listed on the way 🍽️ About me 👀 I am a French girl that moved on the Left bank 9 years ago... and never left! I adore reading and walking (I like to do both at the same time, much to my mother's apprehension). I studied literature and history and patiently assembled all the details I give you here, by searching and reading a lot. If you interested in living full-on curious and peaceful literary tours during your Parisian stay, I host private customed tours around Paris. I'll be happy to count you in one of them! 🥐 And if you want more help to plan your Parisian trip, I'll be honored to help ;) you can find all my custom services at the end of the map! 🗺 Don't forget to download Thatch app to access full features!

Ever contemplated a new method of travel? A way to break up all of the traffic-filled roadtrips or miserable treks to the airport, only to wait 2-3 hours for a flight? Fed up with the same old highway views (or lack of views from the plane)? If so, this guide is for you! From the very first time I boarded an Amtrak Long Distance (LD) train in 2016 in Oakland, CA, I was immediately overcome with excitement, which quickly morphed into a passion. I have yet to go on a trip and not catch myself in a trance staring out the window on multiple occasions, failing to read/watch all of the books/shows I thought I would need or having a deep conversation with a complete stranger in the observation car. These experiences are the reason why I write this guide, to share and hopefully inform prospective travelers. If you are not familiar with Amtrak’s LD services, fear not! I intend to offer as much information about the train options, destinations, schedules and anything else I can think of to lead your potential adventure. This is just part one of a three-part guide and will cover the intro as well as the first five long-distance trains (numerically). Be sure to check out the other two sections (below) as well as all my other work on Amtrak and budget-oriented traveling. If for some reason, I don’t cover something or you have questions, feel free to reach out!

This is part two of a three-part series regarding Amtrak’s Long Distance Trains.

Part two will include the Crescent, Texas Eagle, Capitol Limited, Lake Shore Limited and Cardinal routes.
