Traveling doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your fitness and wellness goals!

Here are my top tips to stay energized and balanced while exploring new destinations:

Active Sightseeing: Choose walking tours, bike rentals, or hikes to immerse yourself in local culture and nature. 🚴‍♀️

Portable Workout Gear: Pack resistance bands for quick workouts in your hotel room. You can also use chairs for exercises like tricep dips. 🏋️‍♂️

Hydrate Frequently: Keep a refillable water bottle handy to stay hydrated, especially when exploring new climates or staying active. 💧

Find Healthy Local Meals: Savor regional flavors while choosing nutritious options to avoid feeling sluggish. Enjoy the best of local cuisine and still feel great! 🍽️

Rest and Recovery: Prioritize quality sleep with the help of travel pillows and eye masks. Ensure you’re well-rested and ready for all your adventures. 😴

I hope these tips spark some ideas on how you can blend your wellness routines with your travels!

Share some of your favorite tips on staying active and well during your travels in the comments!✨

Which view sets your heart on fire? ❤️🌄 or ❤️ 🌊?
I'll always be a mountains kinda gal, but I'm also drawn to those coastal scenes (especially when they come with mountain views too!).

Whether you're leaning towards the mountains or the coast (or both!), I'd love to hear which one you'd choose for your next adventure.

Comment below and let me know which one and why!

Attention Solo Travelers:

Thinking about your first big solo adventure?

You're not alone! Solo travel is becoming increasingly popular as more people embrace the freedom to explore the world on their own.

Here are my top three tips for first-timers:

➡️ Prioritize Safety: Choose destinations known for their safety and welcoming atmosphere for solo travelers. Feeling secure is key to enjoying your journey to the fullest.

➡️ Explore Group Tours: Ease into solo travel with group tours designed for solo adventurers. These tours offer a perfect mix of group activities and individual exploration, giving you the chance to meet new people along the way.

➡️ Prepare for the Unexpected: Keep a list of emergency contacts, including embassy details and local emergency services. Download recommended safety apps and offline navigation tools for times when Wi-Fi isn’t available.

Have you ever been on a solo journey before? If so, list your tips in the comments! 👇

Is it just me or is relaxation totally undervalued? We all want to do it but sometimes it just seems elusive. Who has time to relax in this world of "go, go, go??" 😆

When I feel like I don't have time to relax, that's when I know it's actually time for a vacation - even if it's just a weekend getaway!

When I think of relaxation, it's sitting on a balcony with a gorgeous mountain view, nature’s sounds all around, and a cup of coffee in hand.

Isn't it amazing how a change of scenery on vacation can melt the stress away?

What’s your ideal relaxing vacation scenario?

Before you even start packing your bags for that next escape, take a moment to reflect on what you’re really seeking from this adventure

What’s stirring in your soul, and why is adventure calling you now?

➡️ How are you feeling – excited, in need of a thrill, or just eager to break free from the daily grind?

➡️ Is this adventure a celebration, an opportunity for new experiences, or simply a chance to relax and recharge?

➡️ Who’s by your side – is this a solo trip or are you bringing family, your special someone, or friends?

Understanding these motives can transform your trip from a simple adventure to a profound journey.

Knowing your "why" helps craft an itinerary that’s not just about ticking off experiences, but about fulfilling a deeper quest.

So, let’s uncover what makes your heart race and your spirit soar.

Hey Foodies 👋 Wondering how to make sure you don’t miss out on the best food spots during your travels?

Here are a few key things to consider:

➡️ What’s your ideal food experience? Whether it’s gourmet dining, trying local dishes, or perhaps diving in and cooking up some traditional foods yourself, decide what you enjoy and make it top of your list.

➡️ How long is your trip? If you’ve got plenty of time, you can explore far and wide. But if it’s just a quick trip, you’ll want to hit the best spots while keeping an eye out for those hidden gems not found on your typical travel guides.

➡️ Ever gotten tips from others? Some of the gems are often found by word-of-mouth. I love scavenging and connecting with locals to find the best dining spots. For instance, when a group of my clients was recently in Juneau, I sent them to “The Rookery Café." They loved it! It’s got a cozy, art-decor vibe and focuses on fresh, locally-sourced meals.

Close your eyes and picture yourself wandering the shores of Tahiti...🌴

Imagine the crystal-clear waters. The gentle sound of waves. The exotic flavors of traditional Polynesian cuisine.

Ok, back to reality!

One of my clients is making their dream come true and will be heading to Tahiti in a few months. I couldn't resist sharing a sneak peek into the itinerary I've been crafting for them.

Here's a glimpse:

They'll be staying at the stunning InterContinental Tahiti Resort & Spa, known for its overwater bungalows and carefully chosen for its luxury amenities and stunning views.

My client is big on adventure, so their itinerary includes tailored experiences like snorkeling in pristine coral reefs and hiking to breathtaking waterfalls.

And, if I'm honest, that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to exploring the magical beauty of Tahiti.

Is Tahiti on your list of places to visit this year?

Let me share an insider travel tip with you:

Crafting a truly memorable trip requires not just going with the flow but truly taking a personalized approach to things.

When I‘m faced with a sea of activity options for client itineraries, I always think back to our initial discussions, where you give me the full scoop on your interests, travel style, and past adventures.

Maybe you‘re into nature.
Or maybe you’re an art lover.
Or maybe you just love to find the best spots to take pictures.

I’m cataloging all of this for future travel ideas.

Each activity contributes to the overall vibe of your trip.

So, take a moment to visualize the kind of experiences you want to have.

This is valuable information for me. It guides me in curating the perfect itinerary with moments that really resonate with your interests.

And if we haven’t had the pleasure of working together yet, take this list of things you’ve visualized and use it to keep yourself laser-focused as you plan your trip — the internet has a way of pulling even the best traveler in sooo many directions.

Hope you find this travel tip handy!

Have you ever heard of the hotel hierarchy? I didn't either until I delved into the travel industry. Turns out, where you book and who you book with matters. 🏨

• Level 1: Partner with a savvy travel agent who has industry connections - if you enjoy personalized service, exclusive perks, and stress-free booking and support, this is the level you want!

• Level 2: Opt to book directly with the hotel or on their website - For overall great service, this option is for you!

This is where things start to get tricky:

• Level 3: Book with a credit card
&
• Level 4: Book through an online platform - Both 3 & 4 can come with surprise fees and hidden charges, no perks, getting bumped if the hotel is overbooked, and no refunds.

Elevate your stay by booking with a travel agent ! 🏨✨️
