Saskia & Scott have been going camping with their kids for years in the summer time to escape the NYC heat. Check out their best tips for a family trip, from their years of experience camping near NYC.

It’s HOT! Days like this make the city feel like a pizza oven. Whether huddled by the window A/C or splashing water from the kiddie pool on our overheated bodies, our thoughts are focused on one idea: getting out of town!

Uncovering Hidden Beauty

Each year our search for beauty leads us to Tucson AZ where we visit the gem show to find new beads for our handmade beaded jewelry

Walking through life, it’s too easy to forget your “why” and just keep plodding ahead on the same set path. From time to time you need to stop, look around and ask, “Where am I going?”

Found Objects and Storytelling

Posted by Scott Kerns · March 07, 2019

During our recent trip to Austin, we spent time in a series of small shops focused on unique objects found through travel.

As travelers ourselves, we gravitated to these establishments and spent hours walking through, touching this and opening that. We felt a kinship with the owners and saw represented in the collections, cultures we have ourselves experienced over the years.

Austin Style

Posted by Scott Kerns · March 05, 2019

Saskia's recent trip to Texas left her pleasantly surprised, they have a style in the south all their own that she fell in love with.

A flair of old Mexico, a touch of cowboy and a splash of hipster combine in a distinct ancho-roasted, Mezcal-infused, sun drenched palate that impressed even us jaded Park Slopers.

Finding Inspiration from Afar

Posted by Scott Kerns · January 30, 2019

We find inspiration everywhere, even in the octopus salad we ate at the delicious restaurant Abbocato outside Playa Hermosa, Costa Rica on our recent January trip.

For years, Saskia and I have made it a habit to find a time every winter - usually after the hustle and bustle of our crazy holiday season - to step away from the everyday and go adventure.
