Let's get right into Yellowstone! Like I noted in my last post, we got up EARLY so that we could hopefully beat the crowds. That worked, to an extent. National Parks are a whole different beast when it comes to tourists. Not even a pandemic can keep people away! Painted Pots Our first few stops…

Tokyo, Japan
From Kuala Lumpur we flew to Japan and had a long layover in Tokyo before heading to Portland. Being lovers of Japan, ramen, Japanese food, and everything to do with it, we took advantage of our layover and jumped on the quickest metro to a small town outside of the airport to get some local…
Penang & Langkawi, Malaysia
On Scott’s birthday we headed to Malaysia, where half of my family lives. I feel a little bad because we spent most of the day traveling from Hanoi to Kuala Lumpur, with a long layover before heading to Penang. So not the most glamorous birthday for Scott, but we made up for it by eating…

Ella, Sri Lanka
Without even having been in Ella for more than 12 hours Scott was already looking for reasons to stay an extra night. He told me that it may be his favorite town in Asia thus far. Our accommodation definitely helped sell that point. We got in super late the first night so all we could…
Singapore
The first stop in Asia was Singapore, well technically it was South Korea because we had a ten hour layover in Seoul. Our intention was to quickly get out of the airport and head downtown to a market because we are big fans of Korean food (we are big fans of basically all food but…
Iceland Road Trip
Buckle up friends because this is going to be a long one, but I promise the pictures are worth it! I can't believe it's already been four weeks since we embarked on our one week Iceland adventure. We flew in from Norway to Reykajvik excited and rejuvenated, ready to drive over the whole perimeter of…
