catching up

Emily Wilkes

Once again, I’ve been a little off the radar. I only have 10 days left in Denmark(!) so I’ve been a little busy taking advantage of the limited amount of time I have left in this beautiful country. I’ll spend the next couple posts catching y’all up on … Continue reading

A Day to Remember

Dave Locke

I feel like these last couple weeks ( and by couple weeks I mean a month and a half) have been constant travel, airports, hotels, and hostels. Each weekend was a new place, with new experiences.

Awesome! DIS is a wonderful place.
Since you have time to prepare, I definitely would suggest doing a little bit of research on your current bank to find out what types of fees and charges you will run into while abroad. Some banks take a percentage of… Continue reading
