    8 Things to Do in Menomonie, WI: Beer & Cheese!

    Traveling through Wisconsin by bus has opened my eyes to cities along the way that are interesting, and great to visit, even without a car. One of those bus stops as I was making my way from Minneapolis to Eau Claire was Menomonie. During that bus ride, I didn’t get to walk around Menomonie but saw a bit of the downtown area and the university from the bus. Little did I know, I’d get a chance to visit the city as part of a FAM trip from TBEX Eau Claire. Here’s how to spend a day in Menomonie Wisconsin. This post is part of our Wisconsin Series. What is Wisconsin…

    Finding Rascal by Sterling North in Wisconsin

    For someone who likes to read as much as I do, I honestly have not heard of Sterling North. That is, until a visit to Edgerton in Wisconsin. It was one of the suggested stops we visited on a recent trip there. Since the Sterling North Museum is open during one of our free hours, it made sense to stop by. Here is a list of places you can visit if you want to follow in Rascal’s footsteps. Rascal is one of the main characters of the book, Rascal: A Memoir of a Better Era, by Sterling North. This post is part of our Wisconsin Series. Here are a few…

  • Toronto and Niagara Fall Four Day Itinerary

    4 Day Niagara Falls and Toronto Canada Itinerary

    If you are going to Niagara Falls, the more 'fun' side is the Canadian side. There's so many places to see and do in the Canada side, but after a while the falls can get boring. Two whole days is enough in Niagara Falls if you want to see both the American and the Canadian side. Other people just do this on a day trip, so it is perfect if you are looking for a quick weekend destination. Toronto is just 1 1/2 hours drive away from Niagara Falls, and Buffalo is 20-30 minutes away from the US side. And so, we also provide more tips on where to go…

    Janesville Shopping: 10 Distinctive and Unique Shops to Visit

    There are so many artsy and unique places to shop in Janesville. Some of the coolest shops are directly located in the downtown area. Some travel to find shops they would never find back home, and Janesville is an underrated shopping mecca in Wisconsin. If only I had a lot more luggage space to bring my stuff home, I would have gotten a lot more things! My bank account is thanking the airlines who have put luggage limits. Janesville has the usual chain stores you may have at home so might want to look and pop by as well ‘for the thrill of the hunt’. However, for the purposes of…

    3 Best Things to Do in Osseo Wisconsin

    I’ve had a chance to spend half a day in Osseo Wisconsin, and I’m pleasantly surprised at what this little town offers. Osseo is a 30-minute drive south of Eau Claire and is a quick detour off I-94. Here’s a list of the best things to do in Osseo Wisconsin. As a note, this tour was part of a pre-TBEX FAM when I was in TBEX North America in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. All opinions and experiences remain my own.  Here is a list of travel conferences you can attend if you are a travel influencer or a travel blogger/vlogger.  Want more Wisconsin trip ideas?
