Today, people all over Scotland will be celebrating the life of Robert Burns. It’s as much as a way to honor Scotland itself as it is to remember the great author and poet who would have been 266 years old today!

Burns Night traditionally includes a Scottish meal with haggis, neeps, and tatties. Of course, you can’t forget a dram or two of your favorite Scottish whisky.

Want to experience the magic of Scotland yourself? From hikes in the Highlands, exploring castles, or even attending your own Burns Supper, there is much to do! Let me help you plan the adventure of a lifetime - complete with whisky tastings, Highland Games, literary history, and so much more.

Now raise your glass! Slainte mhath! 🥃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Did you know the average time spent planning a Disney World vacation is 20 hours??

Planning a Disney World vacation is no joke. There are lots of things to consider, pre-book, and pre-plan. And often the info on Google is out of date or not relevant to you.

The good news?? I am here every step of the way!

So, you *could* spend 20 hours+ trying to navigating up to date information on a destination the size of San Fransisco, OR, you could hire me to make it SO much easier for you.

Hey! Let’s answer some FAQ’s I often get about Walt Disney World!

📆 “When is the best time to go?” When people ask this question they *usually* mean when are the crowds & prices lower? Some of my favorite times to visit are early & late February, early March, May, September, early November and early December.

✅ “When do I need to book?” Honestly, whenever you want! Many hard-to-get experiences like character dining and Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique opens up 60 days before you arrive. If these things are important to you than you need to be booked before that date. The skip-the-line service, called Lightning Lanes, can be booked 7 days before check-in. Booking far out also helps many people budget and make multiple payments toward their trip balance.

🤳”Will I be on my phone the whole time?” It’s true that the app is a requirement to get the most out of your time in the parks. That being said, I give my clients lots of resources before departure, including a list of *free* things to do at each park that aren’t rides! I also recommend a park-free day to enjoy your hotel and its amenities. These experiences are also a great phone break.

😰 “I’m so overwhelmed by everything I need to learn and decide. Do you help?” YES! I’m here to help every step of the way. Choosing which parks to visit, park touring, meal planning, packing list, technology assistance, and more!

“May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back.” 🇮🇪🐑🎻☘️

I’ve had three Ireland requests this week, so I think now is a good time to talk about the Emerald Isle!

When To Go: Ireland has a lot to offer year round. That being said, late March-May and September-October have fewer crowds (and often lower airfare!!) compared to summer months.

What to See: We will choose an itinerary based on your interests, but no matter what we will make sure you see the stunning countryside! Don’t want to drive the roads? No problem! A group tour or private driver is easy to set up!

If you love folk music, hikes or long walks, drinking in an authentic pub, historical sights, Christian heritage, animal encounters, nature that will take your breath away, and people who will leave you smiling, then Ireland is for you!

Ireland has something for everyone! If you have been dreaming of a trip to this incredible country give me a shout.

✈️ And great news!! Nashville is getting a new nonstop flight to/from Dublin starting in April, making 2025 the perfect year to go!
