Life with
Edgars & Erika


TRAVEL & Lifestyle


Day-to-day life or traveling around the world, we’re here to share our stories with you. We hope that our adventures together inspire you to book the plane ticket, try that new restaurant down the street or even pick up that book you’ve been dying to read. Our life is a tale as old as time and we are so glad you’ve chosen to enter into ours.

A Decade of Adventures

For the past ten years we have been going on adventures both big and small. Washington, DC was our first adventure and a 26 day European Honeymoon (including Greece, Italy, and France) was our latest trip together. Make sure to follow @ourtaleasoldastime on Instagram for posts about these adventures and more.

We met the summer of 2013 and instantly hit it off. Since meeting we were instantly a package deal. Going on adventures and making memories is our favorite thing to do. My main bucket list item is to visit every Disney Park in the world and Edgars’ is to visit as many countries/cities as he can. Here you’ll find our adventures as well as daily life things that you may enjoy.

So Happy To Meet You

I came to the USA from Latvia so traveling has always been something I wanted to do. I love seeing new things and when Erika and I vacation we have a tendency to run around and see everything we possible can, resulting in us needing a vacation after a vacation. Hope our adventures can help you plan your own.

A fact about me: Why would I buy it when I can build it.

Always starting a new project

If you’re here you’re going to learn a lot about our travel whether it is just around town or in a different country. Before I met Edgars I never really wanted to go on an airplane, but clearly I got bit by the travel bug and now we are always on a new adventure. You might also get some general life posts because—that’s life!

A fact about me: My TBR pile is almost as tall as the Empire State Building at this point, but that won’t stop me from buying more books.
