Ammon and Sasha continue: After an exhausting sprint to barely catch our overnight bus to Jujuy from Buenos Aires, we had a relatively easy 23 hour ride to Jujuy. It left in the morning and by sunset we were still driving through a flat farming landscape but woke […]
The honeymoon continues with Ammon and Sasha: Over and over again I have heard of Buenos Aires (BA) as one of the best cities in the world and easily everyone’s favourite capital in Latin America so I had high expectations without really understanding why. Our approach by ferry […]
The adventure continues with Ammon and Sasha: Looking at a map the road south from Posadas follows the western border of Uruguay with multiple border crossings to choose from. As we were on a night bus it made some sense to stop at the furthest south crossing (more […]
Ammon and Sasha continue: Consistently ranked as the #1 waterfall in the world, it would be an understatement to say I was excited to finally get to Iguazu Falls. It isn’t the tallest or strongest falls, but it is the largest in terms of width and arguably the […]
More time with Ammon and Sasha in Brazil: From Paraty it was time to finally brave Rio. Not going to lie, Rio is intimidating and has a terrible reputation these days. Crime is a constant concern and the general consensus is that it is still getting worse. It […]
Continuing Brazil with Ammon and Sashia: Heading inland we entered the state of Minas Gerais. In my initial planning for Brazil this state interested me the most as it has a rich colonial history as the mining center producing the gold and diamonds that funded the Portuguese empire. […]
Ammon and Sasha’s trip continues: We made it in late to Santa Cruz on our flight so it wasn’t until the next day that we got a chance to step outside and see what we had gotten ourselves into. Having talked to many people over the years about […]
More from Ammons adventures: It’s a long way to go to visit North Korea for 4 days so I tacked on a few extra days to my time away and decided I’d check out a part of China that is often overlooked by western visitors. What exactly does […]
Okay I said I was going to post Ammon and Sasha’s ongoing South America trip BUT there are so many good trips Ammon has done in the past year or two that need to be shared first……. Here you go enjoy the journey. – Savannah So I’m going […]
This story is much different from my usual travel posts. Today I am 37 weeks pregnant with our second son which means anytime in the next 5 weeks I can deliver at home. The countdown has official begun and I still haven’t shared my first home birth story! So […]
Many of you know my brother Ammon from my book series Sihpromatum. To those who have been following it comes as no surprise that Ammon has tied the knot with the stunning Sasha and they are currently on their year-long South American honeymoon extravaganza. This summer we visited […]
“Mauritius – Lobster dinner, kitesurfing, beaches, swimming with wild dolphins, walking with lions and driving a segway on safari. Enough said!” – Savannah “Mauritius is a small African island nation just east of Madagascar. Not the typical destination for a trip around southeast Asia. As a personal rough rule of thumb […]
Mauritania definitely is not your typical travel destination. Our time spent in this hot, sandy country was far from a holiday. It was filled with adventure, camel rides through the Sahara Desert, unforgettable experiences and friendly people. In the capital city, Nouakchott, we were blown away by the […]
Ammon and Bre went on an adventure to see the Marshall Islands together. What a great brother sister team they could make on the amazing race. They did apply a few years back. Have a look at their video back then 🙂 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaOpNeIYu_M . This is what Ammon has to […]
Malta was an unexpected bonus on our 4-year-long family trip around the world. Aside from the beauty and history of Malta, it was the people we met there that made it so memorable. We stayed on the Island of Gozo with an incredibly interesting hospitality club host (at […]
