Something all couples should do before having children is traveling. There’s nothing quite like getting lost in a foreign city with your significant other. Your relationship and love grow immensely because for those couple of days that you are on vacation, all you focus on is each other. You indulge in delicious new food, snap romantic pictures, and just enjoy each other’s company.
Even though I am Mexican, I haven’t always done things according to tradition. My boyfriend and I became homeowners first, traveled some, and THEN we got married. Of course my dad almost had a heart attack because marriage is supposed to come first, but it wasn’t the case with me.
Hubs and I traveled as boyfriend and girlfriend, as fiancées, and we even had a destination wedding in Jamaica, that should give you a hint at how much we love traveling. Just like I mentioned earlier, I did not grow up with money and neither did he, but at the very beginning of our relationship I remember stating how I wanted to see what was out there in the world, beyond our little town. Sure enough, we budgeted better, planned and booked ahead, and before we knew it we were out trying macaroons in Switzerland!
