For The Story Vacations

For The Story Vacations Your trip of a lifetime planned for you. Down to the tiniest unforgettable detail. That’s where I come in. Ready to add an unforgettable chapter to your story?

"I’VE ACTUALLY ALWAYS WANTED TO GO THERE"

After hearing this sentence one too many times, I founded For The Story Vacations. We all get caught up doing mundane things, but it’s our journeys and adventures that form the stories we will look back on in one, five, or twenty years time. I use my years of experience, passion for travel, and attention to detail to create a one-of-a-kind vacation just for you. You may not know where to start, but I do.

I recently traveled to London & Edinburgh with my almost two-year-old. Here are my Top Must-Have Items for making the trip more enjoyable for everyone!

1. If you haven't heard of Kooshy Kids you're MISSING OUT. This was hands down THE item of the trip. This cushion inflates to create a footrest that your kiddo can stretch out on, sleep on, and all around be more comfortable with. I opted for the self-inflating cushion, and it was 😘 There are other similar products on the market, such as FlyAway, but I have nothing bad to say about this product. Amazing. Wonderful. Will not travel without it.

2. Window clings. I know you're probably laughing at this one, but it kept my child entertained for so long that I was able to actually rest for an extended period of time. And that's a blessing. Inexpensive, easy to pack, and an absolute must. My child is mostly screen-free, so other entertainment items we brought on the plane included a busy book, a digital sketch pad, and a reusable sticker book.

3. RAIN COVER FOR THE WIN 🙌 Rainy weather does not keep us from exploring, but a cold, wet toddler can. This rain cover was honestly the real MVP of the trip. It went through a lot but never let us down. Our little one stayed warm and dry, and found naps on the go to be one of her new favorite things.

Traveling with a little one can be daunting, but I promise it's worth every hiccup. You can find these items and more in Rachael's Amazon Storefront. Tap on her link in her bio ✨

Next comes my favorite part - the planning 📓

It all comes down to the details, and that's exactly what For The Story Vacations is known for! We select your travel trajectory which dictates exactly where you're going and for how long. ✈️

Then we send your personalized questionnaire, which allows us to learn about your travel preferences, experiences you're interested in, what type of foods you like, and even what amenities you'd like at your accommodations 🧳

My team and I take all of your hopes and dreams and begin curating a personalized itinerary for each day of travel; tweaking and adjusting until every detail is perfect. You know exactly what time your driver is set to arrive, when your lunch reservation is, and how long your private tour with our sommelier will last 🍷

Once everything is approved we begin booking and securing all your choices. No stress. No anxiety. No FOMO. Just excitement building as your departure date gets closer ✨

The European Christmas Markets are a special time for many. My heart breaks for the families who have lost or injured loved ones in Magdeburg. I want to show you how incredibly wonderful these places are and why visiting this time of year can be so magical. But today, I want to take a minute to appreciate the little things in our lives and the people we hold dear ✨

Goodbye Munich, and hello Dresden ❄️

I knew I wanted to be as centrally located as possible to really experience this market, but I never expected this 😍

To say my holiday dreams are coming to life is an understatement...

It's beginning to look at lot like Christmas 🎄
