Going to Cuba!

It’s been a long time since I’ve written in my travel blog, but I have reason to bring it back – Becca and I are going to Cuba this week!
I’m so excited; it’s a place I’ve always wanted to go since it’s so untouched – it’s going to feel like we’re stepping back in time to the 1950s!
I’m going to go to Ernest Hemingway’s house, and drink a Cuba Libre – and honestly, I don’t even know what else since I know so little about what’s there!
The last few years I’ve kept up my traveling, with my first trip with my (at the time boyfriend, now husband) to Spain, Portugal and Gibraltar. Spain was insanely cheap and I loved not having to care how many tapas I was eating and glasses of wine I was drinking – and the Gaudi architecture was unlike anything I’d seen before.
I moved to Newport, Rhode Island in May of 2015, so our trips became local New England destinations – North Conway, New Hampshire (where we got engaged!), Boston, Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Camden, Maine..and so on. I thought I would miss living in NY, and of course I miss my friends and family, but I love living here!

In May of 2016 Pete and I got married in the Dominican Republic – of course a destination wedding was in order J Our honeymoon was a 2-week trip all around New Zealand – all of these adventures will be detailed in future posts! For now, I can’t wait to see Cuba in a few days – La Buen Viaja!
