Itineraries
If you know me, you know that I love to travel. I don’t make itineraries for every one of my trips as they do take a LONG time to create. However, when I’m super excited for a trip and have the time to spare, I enjoy making them. They are primarily for road trips or traveling in large areas because I make maps to go along with the lists. Now do I make stops and do everything on the Itinerary? NO! I don't believe checking things off a list is the way to travel because honestly, it just becomes more stressful than enjoyable. I use these Itineraries as ideas of what to do and they definitely help determine how I plan the scheduling of my trips. Each one is especially unique. Sometimes I include hotels, other times I split up the attractions into different categories. It just depends on what I feel fits best with the location! Enjoy!

Oregon
The very first itinerary I ever made. I was so very excited to go to this beautiful State. It was everything I could have imaged and more. I am truly in love with Oregon and can honestly say that I would love to live there one day. During my travels in Oregon, my father, brother and I road-tripped around the entire state. For a week, we went to a new place every day, but it was defiantly worth it.
New Mexico & Colorado
Known as the "Land of Enchantment," this trip was truly breathtaking. I flew in Denver with my family and drove to Santa Fe, New Mexico. We had a fun time stopping at attractions all along the way there, and on the way back. We spent 4 days in Santa Fe and took day trips to come of the attractions in the area. The architecture, wilderness and food were all individually unique and sensational. It is defiantly an interesting and distinct place to travel to within the United States.

Spain
Backpacking in Europe is always a fun time. When you do it with a close friend, across a historically rich country, like Spain, it even better! This was an absolutely unforgettable one and a half week trip where I met so many new people and got to finally see so much of Spain! From Granada, to Malaga, to Ronda, to Córdoba, to Seville and than Barcelona. It was fast pace but I’d do it over in a heartbeat.

Northwest Europe Backpacking
Went on a backpacking trip with my cousin and wanted to be super prepared! My cousin studies in Belgium and I flew out to visit him during his spring break in April 2017. This trip was so much fun! Beautiful cities, impressive landscapes, great food and friendly people. What more can you ask for? I loved traveling through Belgium, Luxemburg and the Netherlands for a long week. I definitely want to do an even longer backpacking trip through Europe in the furture.
Los Angeles
If you’ve ever been to L.A., you know that there is so much to experience. I’ve been to this city three times within the past couple years but I still feel there is so much I haven’t seen. This itinerary discusses the popular and well know attractions, landmarks and activities specifically in the northern and western portion of the Los Angeles area. However, I also included a section on great locations for getting that Insta-worthy picture. There are so many colorful and fun walls and buildings around the city, that I just had to include this in the planning for the trip. I listed some of the more popular and well-known spots on this list but there are so many cool places around every corner.

The Upper Peninsula
Also known as the UP, this is truly an over-looked part of the United States. My father is from Michigan and we visit a few times every year, typically to get together with family on Lake Michigan in a place called Little Point Sable. However, we had never gotten the chance to travel to the Upper Peninsula until one summer when we decided to take off a few days early and roadtrip through it on our way to our annual family vacation. An absoluetly beautiful place that I highly recommend visiting.

Iceland
Wow. Iceland is such a spectacular country with breathtaking landscapes and unique scenery. I wish I would have had enough time to drive around the entire island but unfortunately, I did not. My travels did lead to some fantastic spots though and I will always be dreaming of heading back. My itinerary is set up for the entire country so no matter how long your travels, I will be easy to use and relevant!
