A family of Renew clients woke up at this INCREDIBLE hotel in Anchorage, Alaska this morning! What a GREAT graduation trip! This is 1 of 4 hotels and 1 of 4 destinations they will experience over the next 10 days!
Anchorage > Talkeetna > Seward > Homer. Within these 4 spots, they will experience a Denali flight tour, glacier landing, salmon fishing, LOTS of wildlife viewing (bears, whales, seals etc), zip lining, halibut fishing, incredible dining , local cafes and much more in between!
What a joy to be a part of such a special trip!

"Pack your patience." I saw another travel advisor make this comment this week. How fitting for times such as this! With the US officially lifting their COVID entry requirements, which required a negative test within 24 hours of entry, the final and biggest fear of contracting COVID and getting stuck in another country is a thing of the past. What does this mean for the travel industry? An EVEN BIGGER explosion of travel. You MUST have patience with advisors and properties as the demand is reaching heights above what it was pre COVID.
We will get you taken care of, but you should:
1. use an advisor to ensure you get the utmost care and not stuck in the shuffle as “another traveler”
2. inquire early!
3. be patient as we work diligently to craft AMAZING itineraries, despite the chaos.
To all the clients who have engaged with us lately, we are THANKFUL for you! There is sooooo much fun and many memories to come for Renew clients!

Book honeymoon... check! A sweet couple will be enjoying 7 nights in this swim out suite in the Dominican to celebrate their marriage and I could NOT be more excited! To put the icing on the cake, I was able to get some exclusive amenities to enhance their experience at this incredible resort! The next few months will be filled with getting everything in line for international travel, keeping watching on entry requirements, getting some activities booked for the week etc. My clients’ only responsibility is to show up at the airport in December because they hired an advisor. Oh the joys of an advisor!

I am SOOOO excited for my clients who have secured an 11 day trip through Europe, next May! One of their stops will be at the STUNNING just north of Epernay.
Nowhere else in the Champagne region can you explore the vineyards, then return to a world-class destination spa overlooking the vines. Hand-selected therapists await to pamper, replenish, indulge, and restore you to the healthiest version of yourself with also nine treatment cabins, two swimming pools (indoor and outdoor), steam room, sauna, jacuzzis, yoga studio, fitness room, beauty bar.
THIS is what renewal looks like. There are so many incredible details to share on this trip in the months ahead.

Hello Everyone! I am so blessed by the number of inquiries I am receiving lately. It excites me so much but it also forces me to practice self control and quality control in order to protect my client experience! Since my official launch in October, I have had the honor to plan 10 completed trips, 7 booked, 4 in the discovery phase and 3 inquiries scheduled to launch early June. Out of those 24 , 12 are international. WHEW!!! I am so thankful!
This post is your reminder to plllllllease INQUIRE WITH ME THROUGH THE INTAKE FORM posted in my bio! I really need to funnel inquiries through a single area to ensure I am not missing anyone!
I am so excited for the future here at Renew and the impact I will continue to make on families through the world of travel!

‼️PARIS‼️
Travel is quickly returning to normal, and I have multiple clients heading over to EUROPE!
In fact, one couple will be departing in 7 SHORT WEEKS and will start their 10 day journey in Switzerland! We have some INCREDIBLE experiences coming for these clients and I am so excited to share more details in the coming weeks!

Where are my mountain people at?! A lot of travelers ventured and found some domestic goodies in the midst of COVID and is one of them! I actually had clients here last week while I was away in the Dominican!
You can consider Sage Lodge your personal retreat in Pray, MT, within driving distance of Yellowstone! What's even better... It is a preferred property which unlocks some great amenities for my clients!
Here are just a few things the Lodge and surrounding areas have to offer:
▫️Guests get the option of a guestroom or guesthouse and let me tell you, they deserve 5 stars!
▫️It is strategically situated within driving distance of Yellowstone. You can grab a rental car and self lead yourself or take a guided tour.
▫️On site Private pond fly fishing- guide and equipment provided.
▫️Onsite Spa (swipe to see how stunning it is!)
▫️2 Onsite restaurants
▫️Large outdoor hot tub and fire pits
▫️24 Hour fitness center
▫️Opportunities to venture off site to hot springs, music and entertainment, saloons, or breweries
Who says you have to go international to experience a relaxing resort experience?

22/04/2022

My family will be heading to the Dominican next weekend with an (almost 4 year old) and a 1 year old, so I thought I would share some tips to "sane" traveling with kids!
▫️PACK AHEAD TO PACK LIGHT. While there are multiple tips to making sure you only pack necessities, you should always begin packing ATLEAST 1 WEEK before departure. This will give you time to slow down and truly decipher what is a necessity for the trip.
▫️BOOK WISELY. This is an area in which an advisor is critical. Flight times, property logistics, supplies provided by the property, meals, room type etc are all items that need to be taken into consideration when traveling with kids.
▫️SLOOOOW DOWN. While I know we all travel with the pedal to the medal trying to rush from the house to the airport to the next flight to ground transportation.... allow extra time, SLOW DOWN and let everyone fly by you. For some of you, myself included, you need to know you will survive in slow motion and your destination will still be there when you get there.
▫️PLAN BUT DON’T OVER PLAN. It is great to have some sort of structure with kids, but you should have ample "self-lead time" to allow flexibility in how the day unfolds. Too much structure when traveling equals too high expectations for your kids! Now is not the time for high expectations.
▫️JUST DO IT! At the end of the trip, you will be alive, your kids will have the time of their lives and memories will remain forever. You may even be tired (but when are we not tired as parents?) TAKE. THE. TRIP!
I would love the opportunity to be a part of your next family vacation. As intimidating as it can be with kids, especially in airports, it does NOT have to be if you set healthy expectations and work with an advisor who can set the stage for smooth travel!

05/04/2022

“Hands down one of the best parts of our trip was meeting this amazing woman! She reminded us that genuinely kind and caring people still exist! As she told me this morning “You have to be nice to everybody because you never know who could impact your life.” I have a feeling she impacts a lot of lives, AS SHE HAS DONE MINE.”
When I saw this post, I had instant chills. THIS is what Renew Travel Advising is about. If you have signed up for my free resource on my website, “5 Ways Travel Impacts Our Mental Health,” this falls right under #4 - “it stretches us.” Not physically, but mentally. It allows us to get out of the familiar and lost in unfamiliar cultures, locations and people groups and come out a better person.
Posts like this give me life and make me want to shout from the rooftop that TRAVEL IS IMPORTANT FOR RENEWAL!

It is my prayer that every single client of mine finds one small nugget to take back home with them. That is the passion here!!

‼️NEW ZEALAND‼️
New Zealand is re-opening its borders to the world after a COVID-19 lockout of more than two years!
This country holds a special place in my heart as one of our FAVORITE trips taken life to date. Our family traveled to NZ thinking it would be a onetime experience. WRONG!
Here's some fun facts about this INCREDIBLE, NATURE DRIVEN destination, otherwise known as "THE ADVENTURE CAPITAL OF THE WORLD."
▫️New Zealanders are known as "Kiwis," which derives from their national bird, the Kiwi. It is a small flightless bird that is not only native to the country, but it is not found anywhere else in the world!
▫️Where are my snake haters at? If you love nature and hate snakes, NZ is for you! There are NO SNAKES in the country!
▫️The world’s first commercial bungee jump was here off the Kawarau Bridge in Queenstown in 1988! - My husband made this jump! I couldn't do it, so I stuck to skydiving. Makes sense right? lol
▫️Although it is around the size of Japan, New Zealand’s population is just over four million, making it one of the world’s least populated countries. For perspective, Japan is around 125 million.
▫️In 1893, New Zealand became the first country to give women the right to vote!
New Zealand is such a unique and refreshing place for multiple traveler types. I am anticipating the day I get to send a client or myself back! Let us send you!

Clients just touched down in Punta Cana to stay at this STUNNING resort for their 10 year anniversary and my excitement makes me feel like I am there with them. May I never lose this excitement for my clients.

My travel resources were finalized last month and I made my first pre travel delivery this week for a couple celebrating their 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY in Punta Cana! ❤️
These resources were developed in partnership with Ryan Rice, MMFT, LMFT who is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I always intended for Renew to make lasting impact on families through travel. While I am not sure what that looks like as we grow, I do know this is what it looks like right now.
March 2nd will forever be a memory in the launch of Renew Travel Advising!

03/03/2022

This is a topic fresh on my mind as my family prepares to travel internationally with our 3 year old and 9m old. It is also one of the topics I consistently see travelers being unsure on.
While there are many things to say about this, I will make this super simple and clear for you.
❗️DOMESTIC ❗️- If your child is 18+, they are (obviously) considered an adult, so an ID is required, per the norm. Per TSA, you do NOT have to show ID for DOMESTIC travel if under 18. HOWEVER....... you should ALWAYS travel with an ID (certified copy of birth certificate or DL) for your kid(s).
We all know TSA can be inconsistent, and they can always be (ummmm how do I say this nicely)... not pleasant. What if you planned for your 1.5 year old to be a lap baby and TSA thinks he/she is over 24 months? How will you prove their age? Here's a more likely one. What if TSA thinks your 17-year-old looks 18?
*** TAKE THE BC OR DL, ALWAYS. ***
❗️INTERNATIONAL❗️Does my child need a passport? YES!
*** All US citizens leaving the country (regardless of age - even down to newborns and infants) MUST have a passport. These passports are only good for 5 years and they can NOT be renewed, contrary to adults. ***
I am begging you to not let the ID requirements for your kid(s) force you to forgo the experience you hoped and dreamed about. Reach out to us and let us help you. While I would LOVE to help you navigate your whole trip, we also provide passport guidance. Ask for help before giving up on your dream family vacation!

21/02/2022

This picture means a lot to me. I had clients return early this morning from a week in Kauai, HI at the for their 40th wedding anniversary.
When we were deciding on their room type, they wanted to go with Ocean Front to ensure a direct view of the water, but when we saw the price jump, we went with Ocean View instead. For them, they were hoping for the best, BUT FOR ME, I knew it was an opportunity.
Not only did I have multiple ideas for making this trip special for them, I immediately knew a stunning view of the ocean was critical for their experience.
I was able to work directly with the onsite director and not only did I have her running to a local store 24 hours before arrival to pick up fresh, authentic Leis (as one of many welcome gifts), but she also put them in an Ocean View room handpicked by the Sr Operations Resort Manager that offered one of the best views of the Ocean.
It was one thing for her to send me a video from their balcony when they arrived. But receiving this picture mid day last week put a big smile on my face. Not only is she sitting in KAUAI, HAWAII enjoying her craft (painting) but she captioned it with “the view from our balcony.” I’m honored to know I played a part in creating the image in this painting that will forever hold a special memory tied to their 40th anniversary trip.
As I have mentioned many times before, this is what Renew Travel Advising is about. I believe the best kinds of trips are those that STAY WITH US long after we return home. That’s why we CUSTOMIZE experiences to welcome you, renew you from the inside out, and connect you with those who matter most.
Let us make your next trip truly memorable for you.
Big thanks to everyone involved in this trip that made it special for this couple!

Are you hesitant to travel with young kids?? If so, this post is for you!
My family, (including our kids who will be 4 and 11m) will be traveling to the newly remodeled CLUB MED MICHÈS in the Dominican in early May! is a partner here at Renew Travel and this all inclusive resort is the perfect model of a “family friendly” resort. While appealing to the adult crowd, there is also a large focus on the kids as well!
Let me share a few reasons why traveling with young kids doesn’t have to be intimidating at :
☀️ ALL INCLUSIVE. No need to worry about the expenses of kids meals and snacks. We all know how that can go!
☀️BABY NECESSITIES. Rooms are supplied with a portable crib, bottle warmer, stroller, changing table and baby bathtub for all babies under 2… ALL TRAVEL PROBLEMS SOLVED, I could possibly stop here, but I’ll share a few others. Lol
☀️KIDS’ CLUBS. Baby Club Med (0-2), Petit Club Med (2-3), Mini Club Med (4-10) and Club Med Passworld (11-17) are kids clubs each with their own included activities to keep your kids engaged and entertained all day! For example… flying trapeze school with circus activities or archery group lessons…. Whaaaaaat?
☀️CHILDCARE. Professional childcare service is available (8:45p-5:00pm AND 7:30p - 9:00p) for little ones, birth - 3 years old.
☀️FAMILY SUITES. Multiple Suite options that can comfortably sleep up to 6 people.
☀️UNLIMITED FUN. A multitude of other activities, restaurants and experiences tailored to keeping the family active and connected. (Ie. multiple pools, water and land activities, chocolate room, entertainment etc. )
I am pumped to experience this resort for the future clients I will send here!
‼️Whoever said you should wait until your kids are older to travel…. WRONG. There are so many memories waiting for you and is the expert at making family travel possible and ENJOYABLE ‼️

Travel is not just something “fun to do.” By experiencing travel that's renewing and meaningful, we can live FULLER LIVES.
I believe, with my whole being, travel is mission critical to the mental health for me and my family. Is it tied to an unhappy home life? ABSOLUTELY NOT! Quite the opposite!
When I was exploring the name for Renew Travel Advising, I went to the drawing board on what travel does for me. All roads lead back to lasting impact. To see 5 WAYS TRAVEL IMPACTS YOUR MENTAL HEALTH, click here. https://renewtraveladvising.com/mental-health-travel
You might just see something you never considered or perhaps you can't relate to one of them. I would challenge you to believe there is more to experience in the world of travel that can make a lasting impact on you and your family.
That is the backbone of Renew Travel Advising, and we would be honored to be a part of your next travel experience. May it be so much more than a "getaway" or "vacation" when you work with us!

It’s an EXCITING DAY here at Renew! Today was our very FIRST departure day after, quite frankly, one of the most stressful situations since launching. 🥴
ON FRIDAY, the original cabin we booked back in December closed for the entire month of February due to major maintenance issues. 😰 Because of my partnerships through my host agency and Virtuoso affiliation, I was able to work directly with the property management company to get this situation handled within 1 hour. I was able to get this couple a cabin comparable (if not better), they didn’t have to deal with the issue, they got a small refund and their pet fee was waived. (Whew, bullet dodged)
There is nothing like a good testimonial on how partnering with an advisor is valuable. I just wish it didn’t come with the added Friday fire drill. Hahaha
Nonetheless, this couple is taken care of and they left home this morning happy and headed to a relaxing few days in Tennessee for a 30th birthday celebration! They have this cute 3BR cabin with some of the most STUNNING views in the Smoky Mountains and they’ve got some fun activities planned.
Things are getting exciting around here as we will have 7 departures within the next 3 months! Here’s to praying we have no more surprises for anyone else! 🙏🏻

Venice, anyone? 😯 I am in the preliminary stages of planning a 2 week trip to Italy for a client, and I must admit, I see myself being there this year… at some point.
When in Italy, visiting Venice for a night or 2 is a must. Want to hear just a FEW of MANY interesting facts about this stunning city?
▫️It is made up of 118 tiny islands all linked together by bridges.
▫️It is known as the "floating city" because it is built on 10 MILLION underwater logs.
▫️There are ZERO roads. The only way to travel through Venice is by boat (or a "Gondola") via 1 of the 150 canals.
▫️Being a gondolier is one of the top professions in Venice. They can earn up to $150,000 per year.
▫️The first public casino in the world opened in Venice in 1638 which now hosts the World Poker Tour.
While there are MANY MANY MANY regions of Italy, Venice is a "must see" for first timers. When you travel, internationally especially, allow a travel advisor to guide you through the “must sees” and “must skips.” It’s the best way to maximize your $$$!

05/12/2021

River cruise! Another “must do” for me in New York! I have sailed with twice and the experience on the Yacht Manhattan and Yacht Manhattan II (compared to others I’ve done) is second to none. The boats are 1920s themed creating a unique and luxury experience for guests.
Main reason I love these cruises…. seeing the Statue of Liberty is a “must see” but it can take a full day if you travel there by ferry. If you want to see her up and close without eating into your time in the city, hop on one of these cruises and get to see her AND more.
In addition, there’s so many cruises to choose from. Holiday, jazz, cocoa and carols, brunch, sunset etc.
I personally prefer the sunset cruise because you get the perfect view of the Statue of Liberty just before sunset, but you also get to see the city lights. There’s nothing like the skyline view from the water, for me! BUT I do want to do a brunch cruise one day!

Central Park carriage ride! This is one of the “must dos” for me. I have done it every single time I have come here. Here’s the reasons why i love it.
▫️New York is exhausting. Central Park is the perfect spot to take a break. There is nothing like breaking up your trip with a relaxing 1 hour private carriage ride.
▫️There is so much history wrapped into the park and seeing spots you’ve seen in many famous movies (i.e Home Alone, Devil Wears Prada) is super cool. There’s been over 350 movies filmed in the park since 1908!
▫️Central Park is 843 acres so if you want to see it and hit some of the high points, efficiently (because NYC is about being efficient), this is a wonderful choice.
▫️Transfer to dinner. When you are done, have your driver drop you right at the door of for an AMAZING dinner.
Working this experience into an exhausting day in the city is an A+ for me.

We just touched down in my all time FAVORITE city for my 30th birthday!! 🥰We will be here through the weekend and I am excited to bring you along!
Stay tuned this weekend for 3 of my favorite items!
1. A tour that takes you away from the city, yet provides THE BEST views.
2. An activity that costs $0 and is a must for anyone visiting the city.
3. Some featured restaurants that provide unique experiences and live up to the hype created through online reviews.
It’s going to be an amazing weekend!
