Of all the German villages that can be compared to a storybook - and there are many - Rothenburg takes the cake. Half timbers in every shade line the cobblestone streets of this adorable little town.

Bonus, I know the perfect River Cruises to take you there!

🤩It's International Picnic Day! Funny enough, that makes me think of Sandal's amazing beach resorts. One of the fun things a Sandals Butler can do for you is pack a private picnic lunch to enjoy on the beach.
☀️Wouldn't you just love to be pampered and spoiled with the attention of a personal Butler, all while in a paradise destination? It's time for you to get away as a couple! Let's chat!

Maui, Hawaii is so much more than beaches and luau's. Here are my top 5 unexpectedly fun things to do in Maui!

Which would you choose?

𝗠𝗮𝘂𝗶 𝗞𝘂‘𝗶𝗮 𝗘𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆
Tour the factory, learn about the process, and of course sample the fresh chocolates.

𝗛𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗥𝗶𝗱𝗲
With stunning mountain and ocean views, this adventurous day begins at a real working ranch, Mendes Ranch, where you'll meet your horse and guide.

𝗛𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗮𝗹𝗮 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗚𝗼𝗮𝘁 𝗙𝗮𝗿𝗺
Tour the family-run micro goat farm and creamery on the scenic slopes of Halekalā. The tour includes feeding and milking dairy goats, but the best part is sampling the farm’s specialty products, including its small-batch goat milk caramel sauces and “goatlato,” ice cream made from goat milk

𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗮𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴
The mountains and national park viewing areas provide an ideal location for stunning celestial views. A guided tour with professional telescopes can add to the experience.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀
Board a private vessel or share the boat with a small group, as you head out to spot migrating whales. It's common to hear them communicating underwater and to see breaching.
