replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO @Fit_life360 @inspiretowander I have a laser pointer. I'll just open one of your windows over there. #InspiretoWander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A1: We visited the Whitman Mission National Historic Site near Walla Walla, WA. The mission was the first in the PNW. Tensions arose and Cayuse Indians attacked and killed the Whitman family in 1847. #InspireToWander


replying to @theanchoredblog @theanchoredblog @inspiretowander Yasssss! We loved that part of Lisbon! #InspiretoWander

replying to @byland_and_sea @byland_and_sea A9: I think the Glasgow Cathedral is underrated. #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A9: Pretty much any of the Hawaiian heritage and nature sites. Puuhonua o Honaunau, Iolani Palace, Makapuu Point, Kilauea Point Lighthouse, Haleakala, Iao Valley, Akaka Falls, Kealakekua Bay. #InspireToWander

replying to @byland_and_sea @byland_and_sea @AOAOxymoron @inspiretowander Berlin has so much history and is such a great example of how a destination can learnt to cope well with disturbing history. #InspireToWander

RT @inspiretowander: Q10: Are there any historic sites that you visited that didn’t quite live up to your expectations? #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A10: The Venus de Milos discovery site on the island of Milos. The ancient theatre is there, which is cool, but the site itself is just marked by a little sign. Kind of disappointing for sure since I’d gone to Milos just to see it 😂 #InspireToWander

replying to @lduboistravel @lduboistravel Montenegro is a dream. Seriously one of the most beautiful places l’ve ever been! #inspiretowander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A9: The Acacus Mountains in Libya - I've never been but they have insanely old rock art on the mountains that is still in really great condition. #InspireToWander

RT @inspiretowander: Q10: Are there any historic sites that you visited that didn’t quite live up to your expectations? #InspireToWander

A6 It really depends, but I appreciate the extra things I learn while on a tour that I wouldn’t have known doing things by myself. #inspiretowander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A9) The Brown vs Board of Education National Historic Site in Topeka, KS is an unbelievably moving and important site, preserving and interpreting a "separate but equal" mid-20th century grade school. #InspireToWander @BRVB_NHS


A9. There's a church just outside of San Miguel de Allende that's known as the Sistine Chapel of Mexico. The carvings and frescos are gorgeous! #inspiretowander


replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander @RoadTripsCoffee I usually only book a free walking tour then orient myself to the place. Might book something if the free tour was good. It was a godsend in Barcelona #InspireToWander

A9 The Cherokee Removal Park in @TNVacation is part of the Trail of Tears National Historic Trail. It lists the name of all Cherokee who crossed the #Tennessee River at this spot and never saw home again. #inspiretowander

A10: Pompeii is amazing, but a lot has been removed and relocated to museums since my first visit there. On my more recent visit, I kept wondering where everything was. #inspiretowander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A9) I feel like #Presidentiallibraries are a relatively undiscovered trove for many: JFK one in Boston is fabulous as are Nixon and Reagan ones in Southern California. The Paul Revere House in Boston is interesting, Kurt Vonnegut Museum in Indy! #InspiretoWander

replying to @theanchoredblog @theanchoredblog @inspiretowander I stayed in the Alfama and it was the best decision. Great views, great food and it’s the oldest part of the city. Loved it. #InspireToWander

replying to @Kasiawrites @Kasiawrites A8 #InspiretoWander I have to say Old Newgate Prison and Copper Mine in East Granby, Ct. I worked/volunteered there last summer in the mine. It’s such an incredible place! This photo is looking up the original entrance shaft.


replying to @RoadTripsCoffee @RoadTripsCoffee @Fit_life360 @inspiretowander 😱😱😱 You wouldn't DARE! #InspireToWander

A10 Tbh I didn't enjoy the Vatican that much.They were way too crowded to even enjoy and I left by lunchtime. #InspireToWander

RT @inspiretowander: Q10: Are there any historic sites that you visited that didn’t quite live up to your expectations? #InspireToWander

replying to @rebeccajuliet30 @rebeccajuliet30 I can't wait to explore it in person! #inspiretowander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A9: my husband was invited to a museum this summer that is a by invite only one and he said it was amazing. Said they also fed him the best food. It’s called The Remember Museum in Belgium. #inspiretowander

A7 Hands down, Egypt. I’ve always wanted to go ever since reading about the pyramids as a kid. #inspiretowander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A10: I don't want to be that person, but, the Colosseum in Rome, Italy didn't wow me how I expected. I was must more mystified at the one in Pula, Croatia 🤷 #InspireToWander

replying to @louisbink @louisbink @byland_and_sea Love it! I have not been there #InspiretoWander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander Manneken Pis in Brussels! It’s so tiny and just on a random side street. #inspiretowander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A10: Stonehenge. It's much smaller than I expected, you can't get very close, it's very crowded, and there was a huge, icy storm that made the whole experience pretty miserable. #InspireToWander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander I’m going to have to go with the UK 🇬🇧, because you can’t throw a rock without hitting something historic, although all of Europe is historic. #InspiretoWander

replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander For starters, I’d be remiss if I didn’t say we loved our tour of Eugene O’Neill NHS (Tao House) in California. Very knowledgeable guide, and the house is where he had his most productive period of playwriting. #InspireToWander

replying to @byland_and_sea @byland_and_sea This is how the Acropolis is in Athens, as well! Damn British and their nasty habit of stealing things that aren’t theirs (and refusing to repatriate them now) lol. #InspireToWander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A9. I think that Geghard Monastery in Goght, Armenia is relatively unknown and extremely magnificent. It dates back to the 4th century and many parts are carved straight from the mountains of the historic Azat Valley! #InspiretoWander


replying to @Polymathically @Polymathically @JustinLaurenXO I can’t wait to go to Hawaii! #InspiretoWander

replying to @inspiretowander
@inspiretowander A9 the day I put down the toilet seat without having to be asked. this is a historic moment in history and only happened once like a star going supernova ;)
truthfully I can't think of anything and this was the best idea i I had. #inspiretowander

replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO @Fit_life360 @inspiretowander Well actually that depends. Do you live on the second floor? Third? Higher? I won't do it if you're on the first floor. 🤪😜🤪 #InspireToWander

replying to @rebeccajuliet30 @rebeccajuliet30 @inspiretowander @topthingstododc Yes! All the history wrapped up, then go to Williamsburg, and Martha’s Vineyard too. #Inspiretowander

replying to @ParksandPoints @ParksandPoints @inspiretowander @BRVB_NHS In the ORIGINAL SCHOOL, no less. Visited in 2016, great site. #InspiretoWander

replying to @topthingstododc @topthingstododc @byland_and_sea @AOAOxymoron @inspiretowander Berlin is an amazing place for history buffs! We loved it! #InspiretoWander

replying to @rebeccajuliet30 @rebeccajuliet30 The Templo del los Frescos at Tulum on the Riviera Maya of Mexico #inspiretowander

replying to @RoadTripsCoffee @RoadTripsCoffee @TNVacation A sobering reminder of the past. These sites are important to preserve and visit. #InspireToWander

A9) altun ha ruins in belize is a relationship unknown historic place. #InspireToWander


A8 I always enjoy visiting Gettysburg, PA. There’s so much history there and is apparently the most haunted place in America! https://t.co/GebjYyKz9i #inspiretowander
