Ellicott City Hotels - Reviews and Rates

The trip was incredible. I would go again in a heartbeat. Of course, the most common answer to the most common question was easily predictable for us (although I'll make you choose for yourself, and not tell you our own answer). Where would you go back to? What was your favorite place? Travis didn't want to write the last entry until he had a jo...

Hi everyone... I've hit week 2 today, so time for a new installment. Can't say there's really been much exciting going on however. Monday was spent in Washington again, as we had a birthday party to go to after Matt finished work. Having seen much of the city centre, I just tried to busy myself as much as possible. The Holocaust Museum was prett...

OK, hi all, so I've had a week out of the country now, so I thought i'd better get some thoughts down in text about what's been happening, and how I've been coping.... To summarise, I am currently in a town called Ellicott City, Maryland, which is situated just off the highway about halfway between Baltimore and Washington, DC. It's a town of ab...

So, I'm leaving the U.S. of A. in let's go with...19 hours! Scary? Yea... Excited? Definitely. My bags (a messenger bag and pretty big suitcase) are full to the brim, basically bulging out. After some last minute shopping for about three hours with mom, I rolled and scrunched and squished up all of my clothes, books, and sillyness. I still have ...

Departure in three days. Trying to get everything I need and hopefully I'll be ready to actually pack it tomorrow. I'm definitely not used to writing in these, but I guess it'll be good for everyone to see what I'm up to. I'm watching a movie in Spanish to try and absorb all of the words that I can. The only one I seem to remember is "hola". We'...

Just so you know, the last entry was completely unauthorized.  She should really run these things by me first. Many people are scared away from their dream trip by the amount of planning it requires.  I had to do a lot of research and figure out a lot of things for this trip.  I want my effort to be useful to future travellers, so in this entry ...

Thought I'd provide a little bit of information about us, our history, and how The Trip came to be. Meet your hero Travis has been described as a nerd, geek, and dork. Of the three, he prefers nerd, since geeks are strange and dorks are awkward. He thinks everyone makes fun of him because he gets good grades, but it could just be his personality...

Hello friends, family, and random curious people. Welcome to our round-the-world (henceforth "rtw") travel blog. During the next year, Erin and I will post entries and photos here as we make our way around the globe. The purposes of this blog are many: to provide us with a record of our travels and a place to store our photos, to provide friends...

Arrived home on Friday and was great to see Sorsha and the girls. Thanks for following my journey to India which was a great adventure and learning experience. If you would like more info on how to apply for a Fulbright around the world, please contact me at kevin_mulroe@hcpss.org. I will have one more posting, once I gather my thoughts and summ...
