Ubud was our first stop in Bali.

I had been wanting to visit Bali ever since reading Eat, Pray, Love almost a decade ago and had been trying to make it happen for years. I was so excited when the opportunity finally presented itself.

A few weeks ago, traveled to Prague, Czech Republic. Prague is known for its beauty and its beer. We were able to spend a full three days there getting to know the city and enjoying the scenery. 

It's flu season, and this year the virus that is circulating is particularly bad.

People, both young and old, are dying from it. When you travel, you might be at higher risk for contracting the flu and other illnesses, due to fatigue and stress (which weaken your immune system), being in closer quarters with more people than you might typically be (more opportunities for someone to give it to you), and exposure to surfaces that virus can live on. 

Ah, Paris (in my best French accent).

I wasn't sure what to pack for this trip because the weather can be iffy in October (according to my research). When we spent a night in Paris before, it was FREEZING, so we definitely erred on the side of caution as far as warmth......
