Why You Need a Hike to Garwin Falls, NH

by Marian Krueger, in category Destinations, New England, USA

Sometimes when I want to get away from it all, I’ll look for somewhere secluded and quiet to sneak away so I can collect my thoughts and get re-energized and refocused. During one of my weekend trips to New Hampshire, I had a chance to escape the bright lights of the city and reconnect with… Read More

Climbing Pack Monadnock | New Hampshire

by Marian Krueger, in category Destinations, New England

One of the reasons I wanted to head up to New Hampshire over the Memorial Day weekend was to go hiking. On Sunday morning we drove the short distance up to Miller State Park in Peterborough to climb Pack Monadnock.  This 2,290 foot peak is the highest peak in the Wapack Range and the highest… Read More

Memorial Day Weekend Getaway to NH

Memorial Day Weekend Getaway to NH

What was I going to do for the long Memorial Day weekend?  I needed to make some plans and fast. Otherwise, I’d end up sitting at home and doing a whole lot of nothing.  Maybe, just maybe, I could try something new.  I opted for a new adventure and that took me to Peterborough so here’s… Read More

Guest Post: Following the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu

by Marian Krueger, in category Destinations
Machu Picchu

When I travel abroad — for me that means outside the U.S. — I try my best to leave my expectations behind, to experience foreign destinations with an open mind and an acceptance that “it is what it is.” That being said, I’m only human, so certain expectations do wiggle into my world-traveling psyche, as… Read More

Take a Walk on the Ice Side: Glacier Walk | Iceland

by Marian Krueger, in category Destinations, Iceland

There’s nothing I love more than cold weather, winter clothes, and the feeling my extremities going numb. NOT! I definitely gravitate more toward warm weather climates, which is probably why everyone seemed so surprised when I announced that I would be visiting Iceland at the end of January this year. I shopped for warm clothing… Read More

A Day Hike in Puerto Rico | Hiking in El Yunque Rainforest

by Marian Krueger, in category Caribbean, Destinations, Puerto Rico

I’ll never understand it, but when I speak to people about cruising, one of the ports people tend to not want to visit is San Juan. When pressed further, it’s not because they’ve been there so I can only assume that they’ve heard negative things about this beautiful island. Puerto Rico is a territory of… Read More
