Travel is one of my favorite hobbies and something that I truly love to do. I love experiencing new places, wandering through different cities, and finding the best spots to eat, see, and explore. Before every trip, I do my research and plan out schedules so I can make the most of each day, but I always leave room for a little adventure, too. Every photo I share is real and authentic, taken by me, because I want to show the world exactly how I experienced it. One of my favorite traditions is collecting a Pandora charm from every destination I visit, slowly building a travel bracelet that holds all of my memories. This is my way of collecting a souvenir to remember where I've been and the memories I've formed. Welcome to my Travel Diaries

I've been to the Dells more than four times over the years—sometimes with my family, sometimes with my husband—and it’s always a nostalgic mix of classic attractions and discovering what’s new (or sadly, what’s no longer there). Each visit has had its own flavor depending on who I was with and what was open that season. Some places we stumbled into and ended up loving, others were longtime favorites we kept going back to—until they disappeared (RIP to a few lost gems). This list is a collection of everything I’ve actually spent time and money on—meals, attractions, shows, tours, you name it. From waterparks and kitschy museums to romantic dinners or lazy river floats, these are my real experiences. If you're planning a trip, these are the places I’d tell you to check out based on firsthand visits. I’ll keep updating it when we go back (and we always do). Just know that the Dells is always evolving—so while not everything sticks around, the memories sure do.

Hours, prices and walking times were checked when I built this and can change — double-check before you go!

Planning a trip to the Australian Outback for night sky viewing sounds romantic until you show up with the wrong telescope, freeze at 2am in the desert, and realize your phone dies before you can photograph a single constellation.

What I actually packed (and didn't regret)

Sitting on a hard terminal floor fighting for an outlet while wearing jeans that cut into your waist — yeah, that was every flight for me. If you dread the airport more than the actual destination, this is everything I slowly swapped into my carry-on until layovers became almost enjoyable. Took me about fifteen trips to nail this down so you don't have to.

If you drive a car with leather or vinyl seats and you're tired of the seasonal torture — this is everything I've tested across two brutal Midwest winters and a Texas summer road trip. Took me way too many scorched legs to narrow it down.
