We're chefs, restaurateurs, and parents of two young boys; and we love to travel! Join us as we explore restaurants and cultures both near and far, and take our boys on adventures around the world.
We just dropped our latest travel vlog from Kuala Lumpur, and this city completely exceeded our expectations 🤯
In this video, we explore: ✨ Petronas Twin Towers & KLCC Park 🏙️ Incredible views from the KL Tower 🛕 Batu Caves 🌿 Selayang Hot Springs & Kanching Waterfall Park 🏨 Our stay at the Hyatt Centric City Centre KL (booked with points!) 🍽️ A Bib Gourmand meal at Congkak Restaurant
We couldn’t go up the Petronas Towers (they were fully booked 😅), but the views from KL Tower more than made up for it — and the hotel pool may have had the best skyline views of the entire trip.
✈️ 25 Flights. 25 Airports. One Incredible Challenge.
Tom just completed the JetBlue 25 for 25 Challenge—visiting 25 unique airports in a single year. Estimates suggest only about 1,000 people actually pulled this off, and Tom is officially one of them.
This video isn’t just about flights and airports—it’s about the planning, the chaos, the unforgettable moments, and the journey it took to reach the finish line.
🎥 Watch the full story now and come along for the ride as Tom breaks down how he did it, what surprised him most, and why this challenge was worth every mile.
We finally made it to one of the places we’ve been dreaming about for years — Kamala Beach, Phuket 🌴✨
We stayed at Novotel Phuket Kamala Beach, tucked into the quietest corner of the shoreline. Think: waves at your door, a laid-back beach boardwalk, tropical breakfasts, sunset dinners in the sand, and a pool that looks straight out at the Andaman Sea.
We wandered for street food, got massages on the beach (while the kids happily joined in 🙌), tried everything from Pad Thai to buttery croissants, and even made a grocery run to see what everyday life looks like in another corner of the world — one of our favorite ways to explore a new place.
Kamala was everything we hoped for: 🤍 calmer than the bustling beaches 🌴 scenic, warm, and welcoming 🍍 delicious food everywhere you turn 👨👩👦 family-friendly without sacrificing charm
We loved it so much we already know we’ll be back — probably more than once 😉 Our full video is live now if you want to experience this beautiful little slice of Thailand with us.
Let us know in the comments — would you choose the busy beaches or the quiet ones? 👇
We’re kicking off our journey to Asia in style — flying Air Canada Premium Economy aboard the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner! 🌏

We’ll show you what Premium Economy is really like — from seat comfort and amenities to in-flight dining and whether it’s worth the upgrade.
💳 Are Credit Cards With Annual Fees Actually Worth It?
You’ve probably seen cards with annual fees and thought, “Why would I pay to use a credit card?” 🤔
The truth is — sometimes they’re more than worth it.
✅ Lounge access worth hundreds 🍽️ Dining and grocery rewards that cover the fee 💸 Travel credits, Uber cash, and sign-up bonuses that pay you back In our latest post, we break down when annual fee cards make sense, how to calculate real value, and why the Amex Gold and Venture X can actually come out ahead.
