We took our first family trip (in a long time) with my family to Durango for a weekend of skiing! This was my first time skiing in 5-ish years and my dad and sister’s first time skiing (her boyf has gone once before but he was basically Drew’s level #athleticpeopleamirite).

We’ve never been to Durango but my sister’s boyfriend recommended it because he had friends in the area and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. If you’re looking for an affordable, non-touristy town/resort to ski, I would HIGHLY recommend Durango. The ski…

3-Day Trip to Washington DC

Travel Accommodations Airfare: Round-trip, non-stop flight with Southwest Airlines from Houston Hobby (HOU) to Arlington Ronald Reagan (DCA) Housing: We stayed with my bestie at her apartment in Virginia! (Thank you Errrrr) 🙂Luckily all of…
