Where to Stay in Nashville: The Westin Hotel

December 22, 2017 by alongforadventure Leave a Comment

When a rather last-minute opportunity arose to take a weekend trip to Nashville, I immediately got to planning! We had a lovely weekend in this southern city and I do believe I found the most perfect Nashville hotel to stay in. There were tons of choices as to where to stay in Nashville, but I knew I wanted to be walking distance to everything we wanted to see. It's always so great when my extensive trip planning pays off, and with the Westin Nashville Hotel, it most certainly did. Country … [Read more...]

Monell’s: Family Style Southern Food in Nashville

southern food

When I travel, half of my excitement about the destination comes from its food. And with a city like Nashville, can you blame me? The first thing I did when I hopped off the plane was follow my nose (or my Yelp account) to find Nashville's best family style southern food at Monell's. They have three locations around Nashville, but I visited their original location in Germantown as it was in the downtown vicinity. The restaurant is inside a large Victorian home which was built in 1905. … [Read more...]

A Weekend in New Orleans

November 2, 2017 by alongforadventure Leave a Comment

My first time in New Orleans was not only during Mardi Gras, but it happened to be NBA All Star Weekend as well. Needless to say, the city was PACKED with people and the energy was practically tangible. Was it the greatest choice as a first timer in the city? Most likely not...I was super limited in accommodations (elevated pricing plus limited availability) and definitely paid more for things than I really should have. Regardless, I still had an an amazing experience that has left me … [Read more...]
