My 3rd home <3 (I claim a lot of places). But, I did actually live here last year and am feeling super called to go back.

If there’s one thing you should take away from this post, it’s that you should probably, at some point in your lifetime, spend much more than 48 hours in Champagne, but given that its capital city of Reims is only a 40 minute train from Paris, getting away for the weekend is extraordinarily easy. From great restaurants and museums to quite literally thousands of wine producers all within a few kilometers, you’d be remiss not to spend some time in Champagne on your next trip to France. Read on to discover my itinerary to plan your own visit.

This was a great vacation. We stayed at an Airbnb ~3 miles west of Hanalei, which is the last main town in Kauai as you head west towards the Nā pali coast. Unfortunately, the Airbnb is no longer listed, and next time we will look for a place even closer to a swimmable beach so we can walk and not deal with putting kids in the car.
90% of the time we stayed in a 10 mile radius because it was perfect for us. Our recommendations are just north side and basically just Hanalei surroundings.
If we came back, we’d definitely adventure out a little more to see more -- waimea canyon, south side, etc. -- but Hanalei area is the dopest on the north side so we were happy as clams. This is a list of things we did.
