An Old Fashioned Travel Blog…

These days it seems like most of the travel information on the internet is either unhelpful fluff generated by AI or from influencers more interested in linking their outfits than anything else.

So I’m glad you found me! I’ve been writing this travel blog for over 8 years, and even though it’s “my blog,” it’s really all about YOU.

From “copy my trip” itineraries to really detailed reviews and comparisons of places to stay, you’ll get first hand intel on places I’ve actually been and insights about what I would do differently next time. Plus a HUGE archive of info on places that I frequent often…like Hawaii ; )

Everything I write is designed to help you get your trip from the “dream” phase to the “I can’t believe we’re actually going” phase.

Hawaii

Hawaii is how I got my start as a travel blogger. After moving to Maui for a little hiatus after school and playing tour guide for my steady stream of visitors, I started writing it all down. One move back to the mainland and DOZENS of trips back to the islands later and I think I’ve put together a little gold mine of Hawaii travel tips.

Other Places I Go Often

Florida + Caribbean

I’m a beach girl at heart so I’ve pretty much been everywhere in Florida. I’m partial to the Gulf Coast (by far the best beaches and shelling spots) but I’m always going somewhere new just to be sure. And I’m pretty obsessed with the Bahamas and Virgin Islands.

Disney

I grew up going to Walt Disney World as a kid and I still think it’s the most magical place on Earth ; ) I’ve been to Disneyland in California and Paris, Disney’s Aulani Resort in Hawaii, and I’ve got my eye set on a visit to Tokyo Disney hopefully in the near future.

The American West

When I get the itch for a road trip, I usually head west. I’ve done quite a few big National Park trips, driven all of Route 66, and spend a fair bit of time in Santa Fe & Taos. And this year it’s on my bucket list to drive the entire Pacific Coast Highway.

31/50 States

I’ve got an never ending list of places I want to go, but I’m casually working on visiting all 50 states. Click the map below to see where I’ve been and get inspiration for your own adventures! And read this post for live updates on my 50 states challenge.

About Caity

I’m an Oklahoma based travel blogger on a mission to visit all 50 states and find the best, most unique adventures they have to offer. Some places are pretty obvious (and for good reason!), but others require a bit more digging. Those end up being my favorite ; ) 

What kind of travel can you expect here? Well, plenty of Hawaii and beach travel, obviously. Outdoor adventures and National Parks, but with a luxury twist. Cities/towns/regions with strong local culture (I love places that distinctly feel like no other place in the world), and no matter where I go I’m always looking for indie bookshops, tennis programs & tournaments, significant historical sites & museums, and vintage/antique shops.
