Welcome to the Journey
Welcome to Beyond the Boarding Pass
A travel blog by Maria Baker, sharing cruise adventures, European getaways, travel tips, and memorable moments along the way.
Hi, I’m Maria Baker, and welcome to Beyond the Boarding Pass. This little corner of the internet is where I’ll be sharing my love for travel, cruising, beautiful destinations, and the experiences that happen after the bags are packed and the boarding pass is scanned.
My husband, Chad Baker, and I enjoy exploring new places together, whether that means setting sail on a cruise, wandering through charming European streets, trying local food, or simply soaking in the views somewhere new.
I created this blog as a place to collect our travel stories, helpful tips, favorite destinations, and honest thoughts from the trips we take. From cruise ports and packing ideas to hotel stays, itineraries, and travel memories, I hope this becomes a helpful and inspiring space for anyone planning their next adventure.
What You’ll Find Here
On Beyond the Boarding Pass, I’ll be sharing a mix of personal travel stories and practical guides, including cruise tips, European travel experiences, destination ideas, packing lists, hotel reviews, restaurants, excursions, and lessons learned along the way.
Whether you’re planning your first cruise, dreaming of a trip to Europe, or just love reading about new places, I’m so glad you’re here.
