  • Best of Tahiti

    Best of Tahiti

    This dream vacation was not possible without Scott’s Cheap Flights. I’m giving my sister, @spinraverepeat,  85% of the planning credit. Although we had a few layovers, we purchased our tickets for $485 per person. I highly recommend signing up for their premium account. It’s $50 a year and has already saved us over $1500 on […]

    Hidden Gems of Moorea

    I loved this island. Below is all of the amazing places we visited.  We took the Aremiti Ferry from Tahiti to Moorea. We were able to bring our car on board and it was about a 40 min trip. I do recommend having a rental car. It makes it much easier to get around the […]

But here are some suggestions we have if you ever […]

    I became a small business owner on Thursday Nov 7 at 8:27 pm when I left my letter of resignation on my managers desk and told the team lead on staff that today was my last day. I smile every time I think about how that day went down. I was so anxious, nervous, sad […]

  • A Taste of Napa

    A Taste of Napa

    I was always a bit hesitant to visit Napa. I thought it was too fancy, too expensive and not my style. Well to clear it up, its not any of those things. Yes it has it’s touch of class but we found it affordable, fun and gorgeous. We decided to save money by staying at […]

  • Weekend Getaway: NOLA

    Weekend Getaway: NOLA

    This was my first and probably last visit to New Orleans. Let me clarify why. The culture was inspiring, the food was delicious but it is dirty, sketchy and questionable. I do still suggest visiting and experiencing the city for what it can offer. That is the purpose of this blog, to inform you! The […]
