Who knew Canada has some great cuisine? I DIDN'T! I am a self proclaimed food critic, if you ask my husband. I had the opportunity to dine at The Porch TWICE while in Calgary because I enjoyed the food, vibes and service that much. If you find yourself in Calgary, make sure you stop by and order a "Just Peachy" for me.

Yesterday, I received a beautiful gift from Nicewonder Farm & Vineyards that contained two bottles of wine and a signature wine glass. This thoughtful gift quickly reminded me of the amazing time I had visiting their property a few weeks ago at The Beyond Collection Hidden Gems Summit.

Nicewonder Farm & Vineyards is a mountain oasis in the heart of the Virginia Highlands. Come for the food & wine, stay for the serenity. The property has vineyards, farm to table dining, golf, yurts and a newly added spa.

✈️ Traveling Internationally with Minors? Ensure Peace of Mind with a Notary! ✍️

Heading on an international adventure with your little ones? Don't forget the importance of notarized travel consent forms for smooth travels! Here's why:

🛂 Passport & Customs: Many countries require notarized consent letters when a child is traveling internationally without both parents. Ensure hassle-free entry and exit by having a notarized document affirming consent from the absent parent or legal guardian.

🌍 Peace of Mind: A notarized travel consent form acts as a legal safeguard, providing proof that you have permission to travel with your minor child. It helps prevent potential complications, delays, or misunderstandings at border crossings, giving you peace of mind throughout your journey.

💼 How to Get a Notarized Consent Form:
1️⃣ Prepare a consent letter detailing the child's travel information, your contact details, and the absent parent or guardian's authorization.
2️⃣ Visit a trusted notary public, who will verify your identity and witness your signing of the document.
3️⃣ The notary will affix their official seal and signature, validating the consent form's authenticity.

Remember, specific requirements for travel consent letters may vary between countries. Research the regulations of your destination and consult with embassy websites or travel agencies for country-specific guidelines.

Ensure your family's adventure is smooth sailing from start to finish! 🌟✈️
