The Blossom and the Tourist
The District of Columbia isn’t short on tourist attractions. The Capitol, the White House, the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, the museums of the Smithsonian Institution… they definitely needed one more reason — or should I say 3,700 more reasons — the cherry trees of the tidal basin. The original 3,020 cherry trees were a gift […]
Seeing RED in a Sea of Black and Gold
You may change your city but you never change your team. That’s a motto we tend to live by in the Changuris household. So when you move to a town (a town that happens to be the home of your most hated hockey rival) what else would you do but dress in red and stand […]
Memories of Africa, A Year Later
A year ago we went on the adventure of a lifetime. I know that for a couple whose goal in life is to travel the world, the adventure of a lifetime, title is a little much. But this time last year we journeyed to Tanzania for our photo safari and are still amazed when we […]
The Church Brew Works
Oh yeah, you read that right. This onetime Catholic church in Pittsburgh has been transformed into a restaurant and brewery, with the brewing equipment appropriately placed where the altar once stood. The Church Brew Works caught our attention as soon as we knew we’d be relocating to Pittsburgh. Friends with connections to the area were […]
Top Six Films Set in Tuscany
We’ve had a very busy last couple of weeks; there’s been a new job, a new apartment, a new city. We’ve both lived in the same town most of our lives so this has been a big change. The one thing we didn’t want to change was our dedication to at least post something up […]
Travel and Toilets
It’s a lesson every traveler must someday learn: toilets (and bathrooms in general) can vary greatly from one area to another. For us, it’s part of experiencing a new place (more on our experiences in a moment). Apparently some of the journalists who traveled to Sochi, Russia for the Olympic games hadn’t encountered this particular […]
Snow: It Sucks
I know we’ll hear about this statement, but I. Can’t. Stand. Snow! I know for many the white blanket of frozen water covering everything in sight like an exploded bag of confectionery sugar is beautiful. Allow me to educate you; if you’ve never had the experience of a bag of confectionery sweetness exploding in your […]
Motorcycle to Oklahoma
A break from the guidebook vacation – a guest post from No Kids, Will Travel family-member Andrea Changuris: It was my boyfriend’s turn to pick our vacation and I was surprised with a motorcycle trip to Oklahoma. Yes, it was quite a surprise. We had one week off and we were going to visit his […]
Super Bowl Memories
Zeke’s father was fortunate enough to attend the Super Bowl in 1984. He shares his experience: The 1983-84 Redskins were one of the best Redskins teams ever. Their 38-9 loss would have been very difficult to take had I not physically been there to see it in person. That was one of the last seasons that I […]
What a Trip
“What the heck is that?” you ask? That’s what it looked like last night as we drove down the Pennsylvania Turnpike. For about 90 minutes I wondered if the state had snow plows. It was nearly as much fun as you’re imagining. The slick roads and intermittent white-out conditions got Zeke and I thinking about […]
