Hello!

We’re Daniel and Amanda, creative freelancers based in NYC. When not exploring our own city, we’re chasing inspiration, art and culture across the world. Follow along on our adventures: from swimming with stingrays to running from volcanic ash storms, and from road tripping through the Jordanian mountains to hanging off of skyscrapers, we vowed to chase whimsy together.

I usually post more carefully-curated pictures (don’t we all?) but this picture just sums up my time in Puerto Rico: my team of rescuers and I had just jumped into the ocean with all of our clothes on. We wanted to cool off after spending the f
No matter where I go in this world, I gotta post a food pic. We got these empanadas after a full day of rescue in the 90 degree Puerto Rican sun. ☀️🥵 At one point, we were chopping our way through a mangrove with a machete, and at another we were st
Visiting Puerto Rico this past month was my first time traveling for work! I work remotely, so I work *while* I travel, but traveling *to* work was a whole new territory. And yes, I loved it. 🤩 . Over the four days I was there, I documented the resc
From the tropical jungle of Arroyo, Puerto Rico one weekend, to the Winter Wonderland of Québec City the next. (90 degrees Fahrenheit to -15! How did my body not go into shock?!) . In regards to both location and weather: which would you rathe
Happy New Year! We rang in the new year at @houseofyesnyc’s “Surrealist Ball.” We had a lot of fun dancing the night away in the sea of people donning our trippy, surrealist outfits. 🦹‍♀️ And we’ve always wanted to go to

Okay but real talk: who likes the design of The Occulus? ✨ Did you know it cost $2.7 BILLION to make, which makes it the most expensive train station in the world?! ✨ Most times I think it looks like a dinosaur skeleton, but I must admit it it does m
Here’s one last Summer ☀️ post before we switch over to all things Autumn! 🍁 We spent the last weekend of summer at @longwoodgardens, an incredible (and huge) botanical garden in Pennsylvania. And the best part? We visited during a national da
“New York is an ugly city, a dirty city. Its climate is a scandal, its politics are used to frighten children, its traffic is madness, its competition is murderous. But there is one thing about it - once you have lived in New York and it has b
An excellent end-of-summer activity? @rosewinemansion 🍷 I’ll shamelessly admit that I’m a fan of the “instagram museum” fad. There are plenty of people who lament about the narcissism of millennials and instagram culture, but
Taking a step away from posting about our last trip to Maine and current life in NYC to finally publish our blogpost about Palestine! Palestine is easily the destination we get the most questions about, so this post is way overdue. We share our exper

We have a soft spot in our hearts for cities that feel like small towns; Portland, ME being one of my very favorites. 🙏 Daniel and I are city-people (I mean, we live in NYC) but sometimes it’s nice to escape the overwhelming nature of NYC and
We’re going to fill you in on a divine local Maine secret: buried within Ellsworth (about a 40 min drive from Bar Harbor) is Helen’s Restaurant, the home of some of the greatest homemade pies. 😍 Skip dinner (their food is okay, but we ca
