I'm an adventurous introvert from Vancouver, Washington who lives on sleep + "me time." I'm a lover of lifting weights, dinosaurs, real talk and traveling with my husband. I am here to help you move better, lift more, bust the myths of the fitness industry, and inspire you to love the process.
As you can gather from the photo above, we were in Budapest at the start of Christmas Market season. Our one month here started on Oct 29, and ended on Nov 29 when we headed north to Krakow Poland. During our time in Budapest, our friend Matt came to visit for two weeks, ten days […]
Our Back Story + Verdict By the time we got to Edinburgh, what turned out to be one of our favorite cities, we were pooped. After galavanting around Europe for nearly eight weeks, we were ready to slow down big time. We had booked a four star hotel through our Chase Sapphire Reserve. You can […]
For us Pacific Northwesterners, the gloomy, cold, and wet country of Ireland felt like home. As far as our hour months in Europe, we were pretty freaking excited for renting another car and driving around Ireland. Specifically the Ring of Kerry. Killarney & Ring of Kerry We flew from Amsterdam to Dublin, picked up our […]
The Verdict Up Front Let’s just get straight to it. After Brussels and Bruges, I was disappointed with Amsterdam. Aside from the quirky row houses and seeing Anne Frank’s house, it wasn’t anything special. So this one’s going to be short and sweet.

I don’t know how I don’t have more pictures from this glorious location. So I hope you can grasp it’s beauty from my sad representation. They tell it how it is We can’t talk about Hallstatt without mentioning Austrian culture. Just note that the people can be brash and filterless as a whole. They don’t […]
We must start off saying that Slovenia is the most underrated country we have visited thus far. It has the greenest hillsides you’ve ever seen with adorable french chalets style homes scattered about in small clusters. And we mustn’t forger the back drop of alpine mountain ranges. It is a quaint and naturally beautiful country […]
