    We’re Three Today!

    At the Bayshore Marathon in 2022, we made the leap to open this website as a way to share our love for travel with the world. Since then, we’ve been on some CRAZY adventures together and learned a lot along the way. Why not join us as we unpack some of the highlights as we celebrate. We’re three today!! If we were a toddler, we would have our own cake to smash! The First Place We Wrote About As you may know, Boston holds a special place in our hearts.

  • The Count Down to the Tokyo Marathon

    With the snow monkeys in our rear view mirror, it was time to look ahead. We had just a couple days left for sight seeing as we began the count down to the Tokyo Marathon. Join us for one of our last days in Tokyo as we crawl through squishy black holes, visit with Lady Liberty and eat mysterious things at the market in Kanda! The Bullet Train Back to Home Base We were a little sad as we headed back to “the crevice” aka our spacious hotel room in Tokyo. Not because we were leaving behind the mountains and the snow monkeys.
