A Day in Vancouver
What a great first time in Vancouver! A while back, IÂ wrote about my impossible struggles finding award space to Seattle for the first weekend in August. I decided that flying to Vancouver first, before heading down to Seattle, would be the most sensible option. I booked myself a business class seat on Cathay Pacific from … [Read More…]
This is Why I Hate Helping My Family Book Award Tickets
My brother has some time between jobs, and my dad has vacation days to burn. Add some hefty mileage balances to the mix, and now a burning desire to travel in first and business class is ignited. Though often time-consuming, booking award travel is generally fun for me. It’s the “thrill of the hunt” that … [Read More…]
I Thought He Was Kidnapped by His Uber Driver
You probably already know that I’m a huge fan of Uber. Actually, I’m more than just a fan, I’m truly an Uber enthusiast; I have been with them since the very beginning, and have taken more rides than I can count.

I love days like these. Cramming all of my points and miles “duties” into a single day seems to be the new norm for me (and I kinda like it!). Here’s how I caught up: I ordered my mom a birchbox subscription for herself since she keeps “borrowing” my samples when she visits. I even … [Read More…]
The Tweet That Got My Butt Moving
I’m one of those people who procrastinates. And when I find myself distracted, it’s usually because of social media. One task that I had in the back of my mind was getting a passport for the little guy. I was one of those parents who proudly said, “I’m going to get him a passport the … [Read More…]

Baby’s First Flight is This Weekend
First off, the new blog layout is up and running, and I am really excited about that! What do you think? Anyway… The stars aligned last week.

Two New Credit Cards Are Coming to My Wallet
It’s been a while since I applied for a new round of credit cards. Over the last few years, I had myself a pretty religious routine of applying for new travel credit cards every 3 months. After all, credit card sign-up bonuses are one of the fastest and easiest ways to earn a boatload of … [Read More…]
