Hello!

We’re Emily and Raul partners in life, travel and as professional dancers.

In the past ten years, we’ve become 7x world latin dance champions, taught people how to move, connect while having fun through partner dance. We believe in learning by doing, exploring with curiosity and sharing what works from real experience.


After traveling to over 20 countries, this blog is our way of continuing that mission offering simple, helpful travel suggestions based on places we’ve actually been, with tips we wish someone had told us. Whether you’re planning a trip, exploring with family or just love discovering new places, we hope these posts feel like advice from a friend.


So if you’re headed to Lake Tahoe or just daydreaming about it, keep reading. We’ll walk you through the must sees, hidden gems and everything we wish we knew before we came.

We hope you enjoy our tourists summer guide to Lake Tahoe
