This Week in Travel: Vol. 34

There are so many travel blogs & publications I read on a daily basis! Wanted to share some of my favorite links, articles, info graphics and tips from around the web this week.

• Not fun to think about, but great to know that flight attendants are being taught the signs to spot someone caught in sex trafficking
• The most beautiful towns in America - and the world. 
• Sign me up for  Lake Louise and Banff - free entry to Canadian Nat'l Parks in 2017! Thanks, Canada :)
• This is the CUTEST!
• Packing tips from the Pros.
• $99 flights to Europe - can it be true?!
• The Northern Lights from outer space. Amazing.
• Super cheap flights on Frontier Airlines! Like, the same price as your take out.
• A great Valentine's Day idea for the Harry Potter fan in your life. 
• A way to get the most out of your airline miles. 
• Perspective on traveling in a world of terrorism. 
• Moms-to-be: have you read up about Zika?

Did everyone have a good weekend? Ours was cozy. We had a really busy week, so I was happy to catch up on a few episodes of Downton Abbey (we didn't see last nights - no spoilers!!!) and eat home made soup. I made Kale & White Bean which is a favorite of mine. I didn't use a recipe (I rarely do when I cook), but it's something along the lines of this one, just without the bread (because I didn't have any, not because I'm above it).

I was inspired by Catherine to order the Warby Parker home try ons so I would actually check "eyes checked" off my 101 in 1001 list - and guess what! I have an eye appointment today and I believe I've already picked the frames I like. That's what I call getting it done.

What's on your mind today? I've got sunshine on the brain, as we're visiting my family in Florida soon. I've all but made a paper chain because my pale skin needs some Vitamin D. 

I hope everyone has a nice week!
