Underrated travel activity: Going to historic ceme Underrated travel activity: Going to historic cemeteries! Strange? Probably. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But it’s like a free walking history tour at an outdoor sculpture museum! Ok maybe it’s weird, but hear me out- if you love history, or are really into ancestry research like me then they are so fascinating! Reading those old epitaphs- gotta love it 🪦. I feel like you learn a lot from reading the old graves, and it really drives home what hard lives people had before modern medicine. 😞 It also makes me really appreciate what our ancestors went through so we could be where we are today. Plus…my toddler is obsessed with going to them now so he can look for ghosts 👻 😂 Anyone else love a good cemetery walk? 👇🏼 #cemeteries #cemeteriesofinstagram #cemeterylovers #cemeterywandering #historiccemeteries #springgrovecemetery #victorianera #hauntedplaces
Y’all gotta stop hating on Cincinnati! 🇺🇸 Y’all gotta stop hating on Cincinnati! 🇺🇸 Just like anywhere it’s not perfect, but it’s actually a pretty great city and I feel very fortunate to have been born and raised in this area (technically I’m a northern Kentucky girl but you know how it goes 💁🏻‍♀️)! If you have any questions about the locations in this video just let me know! ⬇️ #cincinnati #cincinnatiblogger #visitcincy #fionathehippo #cincinnatiohio #ohiotravelbloggers #ohiotheheartofitall #cincygram #cincyusa #midwestlife #cincyohio #cincyrefined #cincyrocks

(🩵 Also just to clarify, this is not becoming exclusively a “mom account”- I still want my posts to be relevant to travel lovers without kids too! 🩵) ⭐️ Posts about specific locations I’ve traveled to and things to do or see there (lately sharing my backlog of Scotland and Wales content!) ⭐️Tips for making family travel, toddler travel, and travel with a baby go smoothly (although I’m by no means an expert 😅), and sharing some great baby travel products ⭐️ Budget travel tips, “hacks”, and general advice on ways to make travel as attainable and affordable as can be. I like to share useful apps, and specific tactics I’ve used over the years ⭐️ Local content! I’ll be sharing some of my favorite things to do in Cincinnati and Kentucky (& nearby!) since I’m based here and inevitably can’t travel quite as much this year with a 👶 newborn. If you read all this, comment with the 🦥 sloth emoji and then I’ll know who my truest fans are 😜 #newbaby #babyannouncement #familytravel #familytravelblogger #cincinnatiblogger
We wanted to try out something new, and so renting We wanted to try out something new, and so renting a pool by the hour with @swimply was a great idea! 🏊‍♂️ It basically works like AirBNB where local pool owners can choose to rent out their backyards, pools, and/or hot tubs. 🏝️ Most places allow bigger groups too, so if a bunch of friends went in on it, it’s not a bad price at all! There aren’t too many listings for my area, 😅 but bigger cities of course have loads more. Either way this was still really fun and I’d definitely recommend it as a way to beat the heat this summer! ☀️ 👉👉To get $100 towards your first rental, go to the referral link in my bio! (PS the pools I did the screen record of are located in NYC) #swimply #poolrental #cincinnatiohio #visitcincy #ohiothingstodo #cincinnatibloggers #staycations #summerthings #cincinnatioh

If you are a fellow fan though, I’m sure you get me 😂 My poor husband was such a good sport, although he definitely thinks I’m crazy now (if he didn’t already)! PS this was filmed at the ancient Standing Stones of Stenness on the island of Orkney in northern Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿! Also the intro shot is of the stones at the Ring of Brodgar.

I don’t think I’ve met more than 2 or 3 people who have ever been!
