Travel Album: Washington D.C.

I’ve never been to Washington D.C. Mark loves history and neither of us have been to our Countries Capital. Last summer we took a quick trip to downtown Washington D.C. and saw as much as we possibly could in 48 hours. The Lumineers also just “happened” to be there opening for U2, so I figured […]

Mobile Travel Journal Part 3

Go Pro Photos and Maps, it’s all in the details. If you know me, you know my strength is not journaling. I’m much better at speaking 🙂 Many words can be said with one photo, and mobile screen shots can print as a 3×4! Rather than writing on a journal card “we flew from Seoul […]
