Short Trips and Side Stories: Places We Saw for Less Than 91 Days
Every 91 days we pack up and move somewhere new, but the traveling never really pauses in between. There are weekends away, day trips from wherever we happen to be living, a stopover on the way to the next destination, a visit to family in Ohio or Darmstadt. This page collects all of those shorter stories, from dozens of places across Europe, Asia, Egypt and the United States. Browse them by country or by theme, or hit "Surprise me" and let the archive pick your next read.
