we're AJ and DJ

hi friends,

Long love story short.. met when we were eleven, got married in our thirties! We're part-time travelers based in the US, and have collectively visited over 20 countries and 35 US states. Think of us as your millennial travel guides, helping you make the most out of your vacations, hotel stays, and itineraries! We share what's worth your time and $$, mistakes to avoid, and offer our honest takes on bucket-list destinations, local day trips and dates, and more! What can we say? We like to keep it real. There's nothing more frustrating than seeing how beautiful and romanticized a place appears on social media, to feeling mislead or disappointed when you arrive. We've experienced that feeling first-hand, which led to our passion in travel transparency and starting this blog! So, what else can you expect from us? Some hidden gems, budget-friendly alternatives, and a little bit of luxury. Let's get packing!
