Here are some of the guiding principles or “secrets of success” that my 84-year-old mother-in-law has taught me about living life to the fullest.

It's not a tradition we planned on, but as fully remote workers with no kids or pets, we're loving the spontaneity of going wherever our mood takes us.

I'm a nervous flyer and my husband is big and tall, which means long-haul flights can be especially uncomfortable. That's why on this trip, we splurged.

Going on a yearly cross-country road trip to see my mom-in-law was not something I had ever planned on. But now it has become a favorite tradition for me and my husband.

We planned a month in San Sebastian, Spain, drawn by its food scene, Basque culture, and seaside charm. Instead, we cut our trip short and packed up after 10 days. Here's what happened.

My husband and I have traveled to seven national parks with my father-in-law. These trips have taken us across breathtaking landscapes, but their real impact has been on our relationships.

My husband and I enjoy walking through cemeteries. Some think it's morbid, while others don't see the point unless it's for visiting a deceased loved one. Here's why we love our cemetery walks.
