Love is sweet, but it’s better at the beach! 🤍

Happy Valentine’s Day, friends!
I hope you get to enjoy some beach time with the one you love most this year.

This is your sign to plan a Disney World vacation! ✨

You’ll definitely want to book with a travel advisor so we can discuss the best time of year to go in regards to anticipated crowds and usual weather conditions.

Lots has changed over the years at Disney World; you need someone in your corner with personal Disney experience and knowledge of those changes. 🙋🏻‍♀️ Send me a DM if you want to chat further!

- OUT OF THE OFFICE -

I successfully completed all the final items on my “travel advisor to-do list” this morning, and I’m closing down shop! 2021 has been exciting and a time of growth.

Between the holidays, clients’ recent & upcoming travels, and baby girl’s arrival (in 5 days or less) things have been a bit hectic. But hey! We made it.

I won’t be posting much while on maternity leave but am sure I’ll be spreading some updates in my stories. Follow along there and reach out if you need me! ✈️ 💙

—————————————————————————————

Wishing you and yours a joyous holiday season and a bright 2022! 🤩

What’s stopping you? Don’t miss an opportunity.

12/06/2021

Can I just be honest for a moment?!

This cold weather (and the end of my pregnancy) is reallyyyyy making me excited for my next adult beverage on a warm, sunny beach!

Mojito, Piña Colada, Hummingbird, Dirty Banana… these are a few of my favs!! 🍹🏝☀️

What’s YOUR favorite beach drink?

12/03/2021

🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ This girl is!!!

I’m actually sending out three different Disney World proposals to a few clients today, and I am THRILLED! Disney is always magical, but I get even more excited about the magic when planning Disney vacations around the holiday season. It’s extra special! ✨

Today, I’ll be wrapping up…
(1) A couple planning a Spring honeymoon to Disney 💍

(2) One family planning on going in early November for their pre-Thanksgiving festivities in 2022 🍁

(3) Another family gifting Disney to the kiddos for a December vacation around Christmas 2022 🎅🏼

Ahhhhh!!! So much to love here. 🤍🤍🤍

And no, it’s not too soon to plan Disney 2022. It’s the perfect time! In fact, we can even begin booking your Disney travels into April of 2023. Just in time to wrap up the 50th Anniversary Celebration at Walt Disney World!

I was at Disney World in June 2021, enjoying the Flower and Garden festival. Scroll to see photos of a few of the amazing pieces throughout EPCOT! 🌸🌿🌼

I’m definitely working on making it to Disney between November 2022 and April 2023 for the 50th Celebration — What about you?!

Did you know?!

Most travel advisors are local, small business owners…

🤍 We work to give the gift of travel experiences to others in our communities.
🤍 We care deeply about your vacations and planned time away.
🤍 We know that your travel is an investment, and we want to protect that investment on your behalf.

As one of those small business owners, I am grateful! The opportunities I’ve been given to shine and grow my travel agency is all thanks to you. Sincerely, I thank YOU!

Thank you for supporting my small business. I can’t wait to continue moving forward with all of you! ✈️

Happy Thanksgiving, sweet friends!

This year, in no particular order, I’m most thankful for —
(1) A cozy place to call home & feel safe 🏡
(2) The ability to cook and eat the foods I love 👩🏻‍🍳
(3) TRAVEL opening back up for us all ✈️
(4) A healthy baby girl on the way 🎀
(5) My supportive, caring, and go-getter of a man 💙💙
(6) True friends to move through the ever-changing seasons of life with 👩🏻‍🤝‍👩🏽
(7) Freedom to worship and praise Jesus ✝️
(8) Each of YOU for helping to make my travel business dreams come true ✨
(9) A healthy and breathing body 💪🏼
(10) Laughter, tears, and everything in between - showing I care and can feel things deeply 🥰

I could probably list another million things I’m thankful for… Gratitude is HUGE to me and a big reason why I love the Thanksgiving season so much. I love that it’s a simple holiday that hasn’t been ruined by gift-giving and expectations.

Thanksgiving reminds me to slow down, enjoy both the big & little blessings, and soak in each moment.

Life is too short to not be grateful!
— HAPPY DAY OF THANKS! —

What are you most thankful for this year?

T R A D I T I O N S ——

I love that the holidays bring around so many traditions. One of my favorites is traveling to our family’s deer camp in west Texas each year for Thanksgiving. 🍁🦃🍂

This November, we won’t be traveling west because of baby’s upcoming arrival - our doctor advised us not to be “in the middle of nowhere” with no cell signal and five hours away from our intended hospital, just in case. Sad, but important. ❤️

However, this means we get to start making some new holiday traditions this year. I am THRILLED about that! Currently, I’m planning a grocery list for the upcoming week that includes alllllllll the soups and yummy comfort food. We may not be traveling far, but the food should make up for it!

What’s your favorite holiday tradition?

Baby Tsika is coming soon & I’m beginning to prep for my maternity leave. 🤍

Why does this matter to you?? Read below: 👇🏼👇🏼

CURRENT CLIENTS —
If you’re a traveler that already has a vacation or honeymoon booked with One Joy Travel, we’ll be in touch for any pressing matters. Booking excursions, making payments, wanting updates for travel entry requirements, and so on… reach out, and I’ll make it happen! ✨

Of course, I’ll still be here to assist if you need anything else - just know I may not be quite as responsive come December. I’m thrilled to continue making your travel dreams come true!

POTENTIAL CLIENTS —
I have a select number of vacations that I intend to assist with during my leave. I want to make sure your travels are getting the attention and dedication they deserve, knowing I’ll also have a little one in the office with me that will (thankfully) be taking my time as well. 🥰

Overcommitment only leads to disappointment, and I’m vowing to not let that happen in my business or personal life. Hence, the allotted number of planning slots available! ‼️ Those new vacation “slots” are beginning to fill up, so make sure you reach out soon if you’re looking to plan your upcoming travels! ‼️

Have questions? Send me a DM or email [email protected] and we can talk further!

The holiday season is upon us!
And you know what that means….

Stress! 😬😳

I’ll be honest: I despise that the world has made a season meant for gratitude and thanksgiving, “the most wonderful time of the year” and joy one of chaotic coordination and obligation. It’s really quite sad.

As the season approaches, remember that it’s not selfish to vacation. You spend so much time, energy, and effort giving and doing for everyone else, you deserve time away to reset and recharge.

Whether that’s a relaxed couple’s getaway after the holidays pass or a fun-filled vacation for the whole family as their gifts this year, take some time for you and those you love most.

No chaos.
No crazy coordination.
No obligation.

That time, effort, and energy you always give to everyone else?? Let me give it back to you through a seamless vacation planning experience.

Vacationing is not selfish! You deserve it, friend. 🤍

I’ve got clients at Disney right now…

And I couldn’t be more excited for them!!! 🤩🤩🤩 There’s something extra special about that Disney magic. And I for one am a firm believer that EVERYONE needs to experience the magic of Disney! ✨✨

Whether you’re earning your “First Visit” button or you’re a repeat Disney-goer, it’s always a good idea to plan your time with The Mouse using the help of a travel advisor. ✈️

There have been some big changes at Disney lately. You deserve to feel confident during your travels, make the most of your time there, and be in the know!

Thinking about planning a Disney vacation? Let’s chat!! I’d love to help with your planning and offer insight on the latest Disney experience. 🤍🤍

✈️ International Travel Changes ✈️

This post is all about the latest update regarding Covid-19 testing requirements. Have you heard?!

The CDC recently updated their international entry requirements when returning to the U.S. This update is ONLY when you travel internationally, to a country outside of the United States, and are then returning back to the U.S.

If you’re a vaccinated traveler, not much has changed for you. A return Covid-19 test after international travel is still required. This test must be taken within 3 days of your return flight to the U.S. ** Make sure you’re traveling with your vaccination card! **

If you are a non-vaccinated traveler (or are not yet fully vaccinated), a return Covid-19 test after international travel is also required. HERE’S THE CHANGE — the test must be taken 1 day before your return flight. Previously 3 days, now 1.

Let me stop your panic here!! ✋🏼
Rapid antigen tests are acceptable Covid test types when returning to the U.S. AND is the must common test that many resorts already provide currently. In even better news, most resorts offer the rapid testing on-site and at no additional cost to you as a traveler.

If you want to be sure that your international resort offers Covid-19 testing on-site and for a low/no cost, use a travel advisor!!! We can always help verify this information for you prior to booking as well as guide you through other ever-changing travel requirements.

Thank you for entrusting your travels to us! 🤍🤍

Let’s go to PARADISE

🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴

I’ve been drowning in Turks and Caicos travel details, from my own travels to the vacations of four other client couples who also traveled to Turks and Caicos… all in the same month!!

But hey, I’m not the least bit upset about it.

Have you ever considered a vacation to TCI?

Just preparing for my next daring adventure! You know…

PACKING!! 🧳 🧳

Technically my flight doesn’t leave to Boston until tomorrow, but I’m headed out of town today.

I said I wouldn’t wait to pack until the morning of for this vacation but… here we are. 🙃

Don’t worry, I don’t delay when it comes to your travels! In fact, that’s why my travels were pushed to the back burner — I was so busy wrapping up proposals and bookings for you all before heading out of the office for a week! 🤩🤩

Are you a “prep ahead” traveler or “last minute” when it comes to packing??

09/20/2021

JUST 10 DAYS 🍁🍂🍁

In ten short days, I’ll be exploring Boston, MA and the surrounding areas. Family girls’ trips are some of my favorite, and I’m sure this vacation will be no different.

I’ve been preparing for a REAL Fall experience during my upcoming travels and couldn’t be more excited!!! Also excited to have a little “out of the office” time to recharge and reset. If you have any vacation planning needs, reach out before September 29th! Otherwise, I’ll be in touch after October 10th.

When’s your next vacation? ❤️

Find some sweetness in your life, friends!

How to make your life sweet:
- trust the process
- take time to relax
- enjoy the little things
- go outside and soak up the sun
- spend time with loved ones
- ask for help, use their expertise
- have song and dance parties
- do for others without expecting a return
- grow your gratitude
- eat wholesome and good food
- keep things simple

How to make your life sour:
- stress about every step and next move
- live in constant busyness
- forget that “little” moments matter
- hermit inside your home alone
- neglect your relationships
- try to do everything on your own
- take life too seriously
- only think about oneself
- forget your many blessings
- constantly dwell on bodily issues
- over-analyze and then some

“Life is short, make it sweet.” 🤍

IMPORTANT: This is a Public Service Announcement! 📣

- GO CHECK YOUR PASSPORT EXPIRATION DATES -

🚨🚨 Most countries require at least six months of validity on your passport when traveling. So, if your passport is due to expire anytime soon, the time to renew is now! 🚨🚨

Currently, the passport application process is taking about 18 weeks. Get this… Spring Break 2022 is just 24 weeks away. 🤯😳🤯

How’s that for perspective?!

—————————————————————————————-

If you plan to take an international vacation in 2022, renew or apply for your passport ASAP. With passport wait times being more than 4 months, there is really no time to delay, friends.

It’s a pretty serious matter, and I’d absolutely hate for you to miss out on a travel opportunity because of an expired or non-existent passport.

You don’t have a valid passport or you do in fact need to renew? No worries! Do yourself a favor and start the process now. Reach out if you need assistance!

Oh!! And get the passport BOOK (not the passport card). You’ll thank me later. 🤍

Do YOU currently have a valid passport? 🌎🌍🌏

“I WISH” — Two words I try to never put together in a sentence.

🔸 “I wish I didn’t miss that opportunity.”
🔹 “I wish I would have spent more time.”
🔸 “I wish I could have been part of that.”
🔹 “I wish I wouldn’t have missed those moments.”
🔸 “I wish I took the risk and found the reward.”

BIG things in our lives are determined by small decisions.
Memories made.
Moments shared.
Lessons learned.
Time spent.
Activities enjoyed.

When opportunities arise to make more memories, learn something new, take chances, go somewhere you’ve never gone before, do things others say is difficult or too much hassle… DO IT!

……………………………………………………………………………………

A year from now, you’ll wish —
You’ll wish you would have gone.
You’ll wish you would have taken the trip.
You’ll wish you wouldn’t have said no to the plans.
You’ll wish you took the time.
You’ll wish you explored that new adventure.

Don’t spend your life wishing.
Spend your life doing. 🤍🤍

Now that you know a bit more about me and what I do at One Joy Travel, tell me something about yourself! What’s something you love or hope to experience when traveling soon?

09/01/2021

I read something recently that basically said this…

“If you watch too much HGTV, you’ll become dissatisfied with your home.” 🏡

“If you follow toxic social media accounts, you’ll become dissatisfied with your life.” 📱

“If you watch too many news channels, you’ll become dissatisfied with the world.” 🌎

…………………………………………………………………………………….

It seems like so many people are just spinning their wheels, concerned with what everyone else around them is doing. Worried about things they can’t change. Letting one’s own personal life be sucked away by others’ choices and actions. Spoiler alert: the people you’re allowing to steal your joy aren’t thinking twice about it - or you. (And yes, you are allowing it; another can only take from you if you let him.)

Things can appear dark sometimes, but I am content knowing that Jesus already knows the beginning, middle, and end. He seems much better fit to handle any issue or conflict that arises. And the same God that made a way last time, will make a way this time! I’m leaning into that.

As an encouragement, I hope you can find peace knowing that YOU control what you let into your heart, mind, and soul. Don’t let someone else determine your joy.

Find enjoyment in simple pleasures.
Take time to unplug.
Unfollow social media accounts that aren’t growing you.
Get outside and enjoy the sun.
Turn off the TV.
Take some time away.
Plan a vacation.

Only you get to determine your happiness. 🤍
