Paddle Ridge We stayed at Paddle Ridge, a great home base for our adventures in and near Glacier National Park. They have cabins and lodge rooms with beautiful mountain views.

This is a guest post by Raimee Iacofano from Raimeetravel. Growing up in Michigan, Ludington was THE place to be. Every summer, my family would pack up the car, blast some classic rock (think Tom Petty, Fleetwood Mac, and the occasional Lynyrd Skynyrd singalong), and head west for beach days, lighthouse climbs, and the BEST […]

They also own Tumi, another brand known for high-end, quality suitcases. I’m 4’11, so even average carry-ons look gigantic next to me, and there was a period […]
116 Trunyan Hill is an underrated hike in Bali with amazing views of Mount Abang and the Batur caldera. It looks like a Jurassic landscape! This trail is located near the popular Mount Batur volcano, but it’s much less crowded and most foreign tourists don’t even know about it. I did the hike recently and […]

Daily Drop keeps you informed about the latest news and information around points & miles, as well as updates across the airline […]
