Read MoreYou can totally see Rome in One Day
So, am I happy I went to Rome? Yes. Am I excited to go again? Meh. It’s not a place I’d recommend an extended vacation.

Read MoreBucharest and Vienna: A Story of 8 Flights in 4 Days
Though our trip was to Bucharest, Google research informed us that the city was not that poppin', and we'd most likely want to fly elsewhere for a day trip.

Read MoreRemember that Time we Booked Trips to the UAE on Christmas?
It's been a yeah since the Internet, iMessages, GroupMe and...the green texts were aflame with notifications from friends and loved ones talking about Etihad Airways' fare "glitch."

One reason I love Puerto Rico is that although it is a tropical island, it is still a U.S. territory, so I am able to use my cell phone and pay in American currency, while still enjoying the perks of being somewhere so....tropical.
