The Best Piece of Marriage Advice Ever

There are so many people that want to tell you what they've learned about getting married. Well, I guess I'm one of them. Michael and I are coming up on a whopping 3 years of marriage. It seems like just yesterday we said "I Do." But there is one thing about marriage that really just sucks: Changing your name. Oh I know all that cute crap about "He stole her heart, so she stole his last name." … [Read more...] about The Best Piece of Marriage Advice Ever

Bee Don’t Kill My Vibe

This past weekend I went camping up in Arkansas. In the Orzarks, Devil's Den to be exact. Michael and I left work early on Friday with Hugo in tow and drove five hours from Dallas to the camping grounds. We met up with our friends and Hugo got to see one his best friends of all time, Cash. We made them sit for one picture. The rest of the time they looked more like the picture on the … [Read more...] about Bee Don’t Kill My Vibe

I Found a Beer I’ll Drink

I've been very lucky to have traveled to some pretty amazing places abroad. Paris, London, Scotland, Ireland, Amsterdam to name a few. All are full of historic buildings dating back 1,000s and 1,000s of years ago. I recently got back from a trip to Europe (Belgium and Spain), specifically to go to the music festival in Boom, Belgium: Tomorrowland. But with all my focus on the festival, I didn't … [Read more...] about I Found a Beer I’ll Drink

  • I conquered a major fear today. For the first time in 5 years I got on a harness and faced my fear of heights. Last time I was that high, I fell 25 feet rock climbing and broke my ankle and leg. So you can imagine it's taken me a loooong time to get back on the horse. (That's why I started my blog, I was at home for 6 months with a propped up leg). I found myself tearing up after completing the course. I just couldn't believe I did it. And it was even fun! It's a good reminder to me to do something, even if you're scared. #helenetravels #heleneloveseurope #lovetirol #feelaustria #zillertal
  • "The vast majority of people on this earth are good. That's why Airbnb works. People just aren't out to get other people."- Michael.

  • One year ago TODAY Michael and I packed up our two suitcases, dogs, and tearfully waved goodbyes to our family and friends in Dallas to MOVE to a country we'd never set foot in. I don't think I'd ever felt so nervous and excited. I remember sitting on the airport floor holding Millie in my lap and stoking Hugo's head thinking: "Is this really going to work out?" Here we are one year later with visas (even though it was a hard journey), a place to live, friends, and a love for Germany and all the places we've explored. Time has flown by and I can't wait to see what this next year holds. Thank you ALL for being part of our journey. I can't tell you how much it means to me. #helyeahheidelberg #helenelovesgermany #sulakids
  • Have you ever had an experience or place that totally took you by surprise? That was me today. First, we headed to a Swedish Bath. I was not about it. The thought of getting butt naked with a bunch of other women in a sauna sounded terrible. Plus I was feeling extra self conscious. But I did it. And as I jumped, naked, into the Baltic Sea I couldn't help but feel totally free. I wasn't thinking about anyone looking at my body or judging me. I just felt the adrenaline of being in the sea and then hopping in a hot sauna. Then last night I came up to @storyhotels to catch a glimpse before the sun set. I was dragging and tired but made the trek up. Then saw this. A bright, purple-orange sky setting just beyond the Turning Torso (the tallest building in Scandinavia.) Some times you just have to take the chance, jump naked, head up to the top, and make the memories. They are usually worth it. #storyhotels #helenetravels #heleneloveseurope #storyhotel
