Sam and I closed our honeymoon out with 4 days in Positano. We went in October (considered shoulder season) and I’m glad we did. Positano wasn’t too crowded, and it still got hot-hot in the afternoons, enough to warrant a dip in the cold ocean water a few times. I’ve tried to write about our […]
Zach and I have been living in Portland, OR since 2018. We moved out here mainly due to the nature! We loved the idea of being able to get to the coast under 2 hours, as well as being able to always have a new hike to do. We met in Las Vegas where you […]
Hey everyone! I’m Sam Kieft, wife of Zach Kieft. Over the years, I’ve become the main planner for our trips – mainly due to my type A personality lol.

But down near Duval street which is where most tourists stay is all about food, drinks, and clothing shops with some local art […]

At first glance, we weren’t sure what to expect from Key West. Our trip here was semi-spontaneous and we didn’t do a lot of research in regards to culture and cuisine. Typically when I think Florida I think old retired white people, and when I think of old retired white people I assume there’s not […]
