2.5 Days on the Big Island of Hawai’i

If you live in California, what do you do with a long weekend? Go to Hawai’i, of course! Jokes, most people in California don’t do this, either. But they should!! We found cheap direct flights to the Big Island from Los Angeles, and we figured, why not? If you keep saying you won’t go somewhere…

"America was not built on fear. America was built on courage, on imagination and an unbeatable determination to do the job at hand." . Happy Presidents' Day to my fellow Americans! 🇺🇸 . I don't often talk about politics on here, because I know this country is messy and sometimes I feel embarrassed to be a part of it. But visiting Washington D.C. this weekend was such a remarkable experience that filled me with hope for the future and reminded me of the values our country was founded on and of the men and women who fought for our freedom, equality and faith. 🙏🏻 . I didn't expect to, but I had tears roll down my cheek when I visited the monuments and saw the original Star Spangled Banner at the National Museum of American History. Yes, I am often reluctant to identify as an American when I go abroad. But even so, I thank God for the country I was born in. I count my blessings that I live in a place where so many cultures converged and where by His grace, I can identify as part Japanese, Serbian, French, Irish, British and 100% American. And I pray that this nation can someday reflect God’s kingdom and become the place of courage, love, strength, acceptance, honor, imagination and freedom that it was meant to be. . Have you visited D.C.? And if you haven't, is it on your bucketlist? __________________ #visitusa #washingtondc #capitolbuilding #presidentsday #iamtb #sheisnotlost #teamkaptainkenny #sidewalkerdaily #wearetravelgirls #northamericatravel #discoverdc #visitdc #dametraveler #travelinladies #washingtonian #citizenfemme #globelletravels #teamkaptainkenny #bestplacestogo #iamatraveler #americanstyle #mydccool #exploredc #acreativedc #snapdc #exposeddc #fotodc #instantdc #igdc
Happy Valentine's Day from me and my favorite travel buddy! ❤️ Our beginning was a West Side Story kind of moment. Eyes met across a crowded room, and the world faded away. We met at a Hollywood event, but instead of discussing TV shows or actors, our early conversations were spent bonding over our shared Japanese heritage and travel wish lists. 🎞🇯🇵 We sent emails to each other throughout the weeks that blossomed into impassioned essays of countries we loved and places we wanted to take each other to. Given the start of our story, it's no wonder that our relationship would build to a fateful New Year's Eve in Japan under the Tokyo Tower where, at the stroke of midnight, Michael got down on one knee and tearfully proposed to me. Did I say yes? Nah. I said, "Absolutely." 💍🗼🎇 A lot of you ask me why I love travel, and this guy right here is the main reason. Every trip with him is another adventure together, another page in our storybook, another experience that binds us together and grows us in love. I can't wait to explore more of the world with him, and am so excited to see what God has in store for us in the years to come. 📖 📸: @camillehitaphotog ____________________ @passionpassport @qatarairways #lablogger #losangelesgram #discoverla #dtla #thebroad #broadmuseum #couplegoals #travelcouple #timeoutsociety #oneloveourlove #exploretocreate #coupleswhotravel #travelust #teamkaptainkenny #sidewalkerdaily #bestcitybreaks #speechlessplaces #instagood #bestplaces_togo #travelusa #discoverusa #discovercalifornia #traveltagged #wonderful_places #artofvisuals #tlpicks #bbctravel #passionpassport #PPLoveInTheAir
Daydreaming about the music video I would shoot here for a soulful rendition of an Imagine Dragons song. Who wants to join me?! Badwater Basin is BY FAR my favorite spot in Death Valley. Here are some fun facts about this weirdly wonderful place: ✨At -282 ft, Badwater Basin is the lowest point below sea level in North America. ✨The snow-white ground is actually salt! It’s very crunchy, and you will 100% track back salt to your car. ✨ The salt flats are 5 miles long! There is a parking lot where you can leave your car before meandering out onto the plains. ✨ Badwater Basin got its name when a traveler coming through noticed his mule refused to drink from the spring, due to all the salt. ✨ As the water evaporates and makes the mud under the salt dry, the surface cracks and forms a fun polygonal pattern! _________________ #badwaterbasin #badwater #deathvalley #deathvalleynationalpark #lovelulus #ladiesgoneglobal #wearetravelgirls #californiadreaming #visitcalifornia #saltflats #sheisnotlost #womentravel #thetravelwomen #breathtakingview #mytinyatlas #iamtb #gltlove #cntraveler #travellingtheworld #americanstyle #roadtripusa #california_igers #teamkaptainkenny #speechlessplaces #finditliveit #explorewithme #californialiving
Happy Monday, everyone! Was tagged by the lovely @hinikki to share 3 Truths and a Lie. Haven’t done something like this in awhile, and thought it sounded fun! Here goes: 1) My now-husband and I dated for only six months before we got engaged! 💍 2) I did martial arts as a kid and have a black belt in Judo 🥋 (LIE) 3) The first time I saw the inside of a locker was my senior year of high school 🔒 4) I have a YouTube video of me and my siblings singing with over 15 million views 🎶 What do you think?

Peru isn't the only country with colorful mountains. 🎨 We had such a blast exploring Death Valley a few weeks ago for the very first time! Too often we're so focused on finding far off destinations to explore, that we forget how beautiful places are within driving distance of our home. Many of you have requested I share more of California in my feed, so I'll start trying to do just that! Do you make an effort to play tourist in your home country/state/city? (And yes—I DID hike up here in that dress and those heels!! 👠) ____________ #deathvalley #artistspalette #iamtb #lovelulus #wearetravelgirls #shetravelz #visitcalifornia #travelusa #deathvalleynationalpark #livecolorfully #cntraveler #traveltagged #thetraveltribe #teamkaptainkenny #travelinladies #sheisnotlost #exploretocreate #californiadreaming #darlingescapes #girlswithgypsysouls #dametraveler #californiaherewecome #themountainsarecalling #girldiscoverers
Can’t believe it’s already February! Where did the time go? Reminiscing on our experience at the amazing @naturavive adventure suites where we climbed and slept 400 meters (1,300 feet!) above Peru’s Sacred Valley. If you’re interested in incorporating this once-in-a-lifetime experience into your Peru itinerary, head to the blog to read all about our time here! __________ #creativetravelcouples #travelust #peru #igersperu #sacredvalley #skylodgeadventuresuites #besthotels #smallluxuryhotels #discoversouthamerica #teamkaptainkenny #beautifuldestinations #mytinyatlas #coupleslovetravel #travelcouples #discoverperu #perutravel #peru🇵🇪 #travelsouthamerica #discoveryourselfinperu #adventureisoutthere #speechlessplaces #doyoutravel #destination_wow #adventurecouple #cntraveller #iamtb #ontheblog
