Bringing your furry companions along on trips is wonderful. I’m a pet owner myself, and the joy of seeing my dog wagging its tail in the hotel room is priceless. However, sometimes (or maybe often), it also leaves behind less-than-pleasant souvenirs in the form of lingering odors. It’s not his fault, as even the cleanest,…
We’re always down for a challenge. That’s why we always say yes to climbing the mountains. However, we often can’t really handle the chilly wind and rough rocks against our skin. Our hands are the most important tools in this adventure, but they need protection from the cold and the rough terrain. That’s where mountaineering…
If we were to choose only one outdoor activity, we would choose hiking. This is our favorite thing to do in the wild for different reasons. We get closer to nature, we do exercise and sore our muscles, and we have time to explore and enjoy the surroundings. Thus, we spent too much time searching…
Mark Twain famously called Lake Tahoe “the fairest picture the whole earth affords,” and nobody can disagree with that even 150 years later. The beguiling turquoise blue lake is the second-deepest lake in North America, sitting pretty against the Sierra Nevada mountains, spread across California and Nevada. So, Lake Tahoe is a year-round destination, whether…
Let’s face it, packing light on adventures often means compromising on fresh clothes. Between sweaty hikes, cramped spaces, and limited washing opportunities, travel more than often leaves your clothes less than fragrant. That’s why I always have a travel-sized odor eliminator for laundry with me no matter where I go. These odor eliminators not only…
Camping is my beloved pastime, as it allows me to connect not only with nature but also with my favorite people. However, it also comes with dealing with dirt, grime, and a lack of modern amenities. While handy wipes can help keep campers clean and tidy, many standard wipe products contain plastics and other materials…
Mega clubs, an idyllic tropical island setting, live entertainment, and some of the best all-inclusive resorts – what else could we want from a spring break destination, right?

A tiny charming island off the coast of Cape Cod, Nantucket was once New England’s whaling capital. But it’s changed since Herman Melville’s day and is one of the most dynamic and stylish places to stay on the peninsula.

Whenever we closed our eyes and pictured ourselves on a relaxing vacation, we’d envision ourselves on a white sand beach, a Mai Tai in hand, with the gently rolling waves in the distance. Now imagine that dream come to life – no, really – Oahu in Hawaii is just that. Known as the “The Gathering Place,”…
There are so many things that can put a damper on traveling, but what I hate the most are smelly shoes.

Sometimes, good things come in small packages, including colognes. As a frequent traveler, I hate to bring a huge bottle of fragrance. Not to mention, they may exceed 3.4 fl oz.

When we think about Florida, we’re betting that the first destination that comes to your mind is Miami, followed by the Keys Islands.

Blooming flowers and balmy breezes – spring is one of my favorite seasons. And during this time of the year, I love to experiment with layering. But to do that, I have to find the right outerwear, especially jackets. However, for plus-size individuals, finding jackets that flatter and fit comfortably can sometimes feel like searching…
As the winter chill fades and blossoms begin to peek, it’s time to shed heavy layers and embrace the lightness of spring.

Most people generally just place their generators in the corner of their storeroom or warehouse at home without a proper box cover. However, this only works for a short period of time. Since we wanted to make sure that our generator lasted a longer period of time, we realized that we needed to prepare a…
