Hi and welcome to my blog! I’m Madelin Zwingelberg. I enjoy the finer things in life, but always at a discount. I’m bougie on a budget and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I started this lifestyle blog as way to use my creative energy to share with others my love for making travel affordable and to share aspects of my everyday life such as, my love for Chicago, the books I’m reading and my fitness journey and goals.
Quick Fun Facts:
I’m currently living in Chicago with my husband, Hart, and our 4 year old Viszla, Nala. We got married in June 2020 and were finally able to celebrate our wedding with family and friends in November 2021. You can read about our pandemic wedding here.
Since the beginning of our relationship, we’ve found pleasure in sharing experiences rather than material gifts with each other. We are often looking for new things to do around Chicago and around the world. Finding a traveling partner in each other has been an amazing gift.
When I’m not traveling or trying out all of the new restaurants in Chicago, you can often find me sitting on the sofa cozying up to a new book or binging the latest shows on Netflix. I have an unmatched love for thrillers and I’d love to hear any of your book recommendations, thrillers or not.
Over the last few years, I’ve fallen in love with fitness and the realization that working out feels better when you’re doing it for strengthening yourself and not to look a certain way. I am looking forward to sharing my love of fitness with you and my journey to an attainable healthy lifestyle.
I’m so glad you’re here and I can’t wait for you to get to know me. If you’d like to see more of my life, follow along with my Instagram page @madelinzwing.
