Las Vegas is known as the great "Sin City," you visit for the weekend, party and drink nonstop and then wait for the dreadful day you return home. What some people do not realize is that Las Vegas is more than just drinking, gambling and strippers. Las Vegas has some amazing winter events for both kids and adults.

Things I Remember About Rome
I've been to Rome several times with my family and I've enjoyed it every time. It's a place that I will never forget, but if I go to Italy again, I will choose another city to explore like Venice or Sicily. With that in mind, my trips to Rome have offered me a pleasant experience and I can't wait to go back to Italy again.

Budapest Went Crazy for Christmas
I think there are many reasons why people tend to go to central European cities for little getaways throughout their 20s. I personally know first hand how diverse and exciting our continent can be (Boo Brexit). What I found really astounding about Budapest, however, was how evident all of these different tribes of tourists were, and how well they complemented each other.

Grand Canyon West and the Skywalk
Guano Point looks almost unreal in its theatrical beauty. As the sun started its descent over the streaked plateaus of the Grand Canyon, and tourists shuddered in the stinging cold, I couldn't help lingering in the shadow of the old metal skeleton of an ancient mining structure.

The Secret Places Around the City of Paris
I went to Paris three years ago and I will tell you upfront the smell of pub crawls and piss lining the streets never wavered from my nose anytime I walked around the city. It was my first time in France and so far reminded me of the streets of Dublin that I had longed to parade again.

Last Minute Shenanigans
I recently took about a five day trip through Utah and Arizona, which was definitely one of the most last minute, spontaneous trips of my life. It started out as “Hey, why don’t we do something after Feast,” and ended up as a crazy four day trip through the Narrows in Zion and through the valley of the Grand Canyon. We put about as much thought into this trip as high school boys put into what they’re going to wear to gym class. It was while I was on my way to Phoenix for the winter that a friend of mine, Austin, called me somewhere along the way and said he had bought a one-way flight to Phoenix. Woot! So I finished the remnant of my 22 hour trip from KC to Phoenix, got a tight seven hours, woke up, and picked up Austin from the Sky Harbour airport the next day.

The Time I Studied in Costa Rica and Vactioned in Panama in 3 and 1/2 Weeks!
To kick off summer 2017, I went to Costa Rica to study Human Rights and Serving Learning! My time in Costa Rica was nothing but magical! I ate the best food, met the best people, and had experiences that I would not have had back at home. I am truly grateful for those who helped me plan for this trip, fund this trip, and enjoy it!

Iceland > Everything
Spring break of 2017 was just weeks away and every single friend group had a beach condo in Florida or a catamaran in Mexico that was calling their name. I had grown tired of the endless road trips and weeks spent lying on my couch in Kansas City, so I proposed a wild idea to my good friend Alison:
