They have leaf trackers so you can pick the optimum time to go see some fresh fall foliage. Check out Great Smoky Mountain National Park! It’s a bit late this year but we came through in October. Shoot for early October and you won’t lose.
Comment below if getting a whole row to yourself feels like Christmas morning! 🥰
We love a good day in Chicago on the magnificent mile! The best hotel in my opinion is the Hilton because it has extra cushy beds and great views, and fairly convenient parking.
Friendly reminder to schedule all your PTO out to the end of the year! Use it or lose it people (me included). At the same time, now is the best time to start booking flights for spring of 2024. Three to six months out is always the best time to book airlines.

The food of Ireland. The national specialty for lunch/dinner is of course fish and chips or shrimp and chips. My favorite off traditional menus was roasted chicken with spring veggies. For dessert take in a pastry shop or one if the awesome ice ream sundae stores.

My Ode to Miami Food. I love a cubano. I love a medianoche. 6.95$, crispy, fresh, glorious grilled ham and cheese gourmet. Let me know below if you want me to list out my top places for a medianoche or cubano sandwhich in Miami. I've tried so many places but it never gets old. #2023
Pictured today is a photo from my Dad's bucket list. We have this dream of eating sacher tortes and swigging fancy coffee in Austria. It'll come true soon. Vienna is a city where you can find classical live music any day of the week, gourmet pastries and cozy nooks for discussions, and glorious mid 18th century architecture. They have one of the largest public libraries. Add it to your next trip! #2023

Reminder, live your best life! This year I'm Valentine's day eating BBQ and watching movies but in years past I've planned some killer trips. Treat it as self love day. No partner needed. #2023
SO: My photos turned out horrible because I didn't have the equipment I needed to deal with the level of light reflecting off the ocean, but--these are the flamingos I traveled thousands of miles to see! I love safaris and being a biologist with field ecology training I LOVE going to look for animals. Some sections of the Caribbean have flocks of flamingos so now need to go to Africa to see these bad boys. #2023

I'm one of those people who travel a lot solo though. I'd say don't let cruises discourage you from going alone and seeing the world. When traveling solo do some research. Some cruises have single, studio rooms for solo travelers. Some cruises have promotional waivers of single supplements and you can get out of it. Some cruises are somewhere in the middle and you pay more than going alone but less than the whole cabin 2 person price. Booking during sale windows such as wave season (January-March) helps you get the highest chance of promotional waivers. They aren't on ever itinerary and you can ask each year what is on sale for the year or next year. #2023
Miami shopping never gets old. I love the high end stores, the tropical fashions, the Italian restaurants with great amounts of melty cheese. Fellow independent ladies, you don't need anyone to realize your travel dreams but you. 6 years ago I took the plunge and moved into job where I was traveling 20 days a month. I then decided I love inspiring others to travel and became an entrepreneur to spread the love. If I can do anything, I want you to know you CAN do it--the travel. If you're interested in getting on the road and have found it hard to navigate the world of single supplements, a travel agent can help you navigate that. We frequently have deals where single supplement is waived. We keep lists of which groups, tours, cruises don't have one. If you aren't going with a group, tour, or cruise you can also plan an "independent tour" like backpackers do where it's just you and then single supplement isn't a worry. It doesn't have to be hosteling, though, you can buy yourself any luxury you want! If you want on my solo travelers mailing list for solo travel deals follow the link in my bio and email me. Thanks for stopping by and safe travels to all! #2023

When you extend your AmaWaterways experience with a pre- or post-cruise land package in Amsterdam, you’ll not only enjoy included guided city tours along the timeless canals and free time to visit fascinating museums, but also daily breakfast, overnight stays in five-star hotels such as the Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky in central Amsterdam, and the services of your professionally-trained Cruise Manager who will be by your side for the duration of your journey.
Surround yourself with the vibrant colors of spring in the blooming tulips of the Netherlands’ Keukenhof Gardens with AmaWaterways’ charming Tulip Time experience. In addition, you’ll wander along picturesque canals (of which there are 165) and through world-renowned museums in Amsterdam, often referred to as the ‘Venice of the North.’
Spring is one of my favorite times to visit Europe because shoulder season is cost effective and the climate is mild compared to most winter/spring areas of the US. AMA waterways has a wave season deal where land packages up to 1400$ are free when you book a select EU river cruise. With the offer you receive luxury hotels, transfers, excursions led by local guides, and more. Itineraries in this offer include the Rhine and Danube Rivers. #2023
One of my favorite ways to see Miami as a newbie is the Hop on Hop off bus. It leaves from Senor Frogs in South Beach. Check out the sunset tour and see Miami after dark, cruising through Bayside, Brickle, Calle Ocho and returning to the walkable restaurant district where you can catch some more late night appetizers and music. It's easy to navigate there if you are staying in Miami beach because you can take the free trolley to near the pickup point, or you can uber. Traffic is gridlock on Miami Beach though so I generally don't suggest renting a car, and keep this in mind if you are ubering because... you will be in the uber forever. The closer you get to South Beach the worse it gest. I lived in Miami Beach for about 9 months in 2018-2019 so if you want more tips, tricks, comment below!
River cruising is an excellent way to see Europe in the Spring. The ships are small, carrying around 160 passengers only. Most rooms have a balcony so you can take in the sights of famous cities at night, passing you by. The pace is more leisurely and you don't have to worry about sea sickness. AmaWaterways invites you to uncover the flavorful tastes and aromas of Brussels, explore the dramatic architecture at Ghent’s Castle of the Counts of Flanders, and be dazzled by trendy Antwerp with their new Best of Holland and Belgium river journey.
When I used to live in Miami I had the dearest client who used to feed us. Oh lord I can remember the joys of fresh orange juice and one of these with some Cafecito at 2pm. If you're a chocoholic like me Chocolate Fashion over by Coral Gables sells cannelles and chocolate mousse cakes in single servings that are out of this world-I mean truly, because I've tried a lot of chocolate in my day. If you're looking to spruce up some client gifts this neve disappoints. If you want to know more places to eat in Miami area and you're a foodie comment below.
It's the time of year where we dream of a tropical vacation and I'm stoked (yes I grew up with surfer lingo. Welcome to Cali) to head back to Miami in February 2023. Pictured here is my own personal sunset on Miami beach circa 2019. I used to live in Miami Beach for a bit and it's not only the "party" mentality portrayed in the media. If you head on up to mid-beach or north beach you can reach the quietest family neighborhoods and enjoy a relaxing getaway with turquoise ocean. Wind surfing is common in the area and in my experience the beach is not very wide and has a steep drop off, meaning you don't wade very far out into the water before it gets really deep. Miami holds a special place in my heart and I hope one day you get the chance to see the beautiful palm trees, eat a good Cuban sandwich, avoid the Cafecito that will wake the dead, and the sunsets and seafood. Stay tuned and I'll definitely share photos when I go. Comment if you've ever wanted to go to Miami. I actually partially specialize in FL travel so I'm full of info, even if you're going alone I can probably recommend some great places to eat and things to see. Thanks for stopping by. #2023
