Love the holidays? Consider a holiday-themed vacation! This year, my daughter and I soaked up all the Christmas spirit in NYC. We had so much fun seeing the beautiful decorations, enjoying Christmas shows like the Radio City Music Hall Christmas Spectacular, and savoring yummy holiday treats! And while Christmas 2024 may have come and gone, next year I am kicking off the season with my husband on a Christmas markets river cruise on the Rhine with AmaWaterways. Whether you want to enjoy the Christmas festivities or escape to a relaxing tropical beach, it’s not too early to think about your holidays in 2025!

While Lake Louise and Lake Moraine were the highlights of my recent vacation, the town of Banff and its surrounding scenery were amazing as well. If you are someone who likes to spend time hiking, rafting, kayaking, horseback riding, etc…, this is a dream destination for you! And after enjoying the outdoors, you can enjoy Canadian treats! 🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦

Recently, I had the opportunity to check a big item off my bucket list! My husband and I spent a night at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise in a lake view king room. Falling asleep and waking up with a view of Lake Louise was magical, and staying on site gave us easy access to both Lake Louise and Lake Moraine. This is a gorgeous location, and pictures don’t do it justice. What’s on your bucket list? Lake Louise and Lake Moraine should be!😍🇨🇦😍

Summer travel season has started, and I am so excited for my clients who are currently in Paris, Venice, Hawaii, Mexico, and Yellowstone. I especially enjoy helping clients visit places I love. Stay tuned for more exciting locations as my clients travel the world during the summer months!

Norwegian Travel Lesson: Notice my excitement about this local purchase. I was very thirsty and thought some Norwegian spring water would be quite refreshing. Alas, I didn’t notice the labels “Gas” and “No Gas” and was very surprised when I took a big gulp of fizzy, sparkling water. 🤮 Thankfully, I can wholeheartedly recommend the Smash candy bar, but be forewarned about the “gas” if you prefer still water!😊 (This actually applies to water in many European countries.)

London is lovely, but it is also nice to take some time to explore some of the many villages that dot the English countryside. My daughter-in-law and I enjoyed Bibury, Burton-on-the-Water, and Burford, but there are many more. It does take a couple of hours each way to visit from London, so keep that in mind depending on the preferences of your group. Two members of our traveling party chose to stay in London to visit Wimbledon and to see a soccer game, and those were the perfect choices for them!

London is such a lovely city! I usually enjoy natural settings more than urban, but London has my heart! There are so many parks and trees, and the architecture has such charm. As a lover of Jane Austen, Downton Abbey, Harry Potter, and The Crown, I appreciate the feeling of familiarity and thinking I could run into any one of my favorite characters. If you haven’t visited London, be sure it is on your must-see list!

My Ocean Terrace Suite on Explora I was wonderful, but if you are looking for larger accommodations, those are available as well. The Penthouses and Residences offer separate spaces for living and sleeping, and the outdoor amenities can’t be beat!

Signature Travel Network will be hosting an online event on May 2 featuring Explora Journeys. If you would like to attend, please let me know. I am excited about Explora (I’ve already booked my next Journey), and I would love for you to see what the excitement is all about!

I’ve mentioned before that I am really bad at relaxing, but last week on my journey with Explora, I felt like I was enjoying a six-night restorative spa experience. The overall vibe of the ship was peaceful and serene. There were so many places to connect with the water, which is always a calming influence for me. From beautiful pools and hot tubs to outdoor fitness experiences (pickleball, anyone?), I loved the opportunity to breathe in the salt air and hear the sound of the waves. Explora Journeys is truly focused on the ocean state of mind!

Confession: I am not an adventurous eater, but I will sometimes take risks on a cruise since I am not paying for individual items. On Explora I, I surprised myself by trying caviar, which was served with fingerling potatoes and Normandy butter. It was delicious!

As with all other aspects of the cruise, the food experience was elevated. Instead of a main dining room, there were four specialty dining options. My favorite was Marble & Co, the steakhouse, but all were amazing.

Even the Emporium Marketplace, the buffet-style option on board, delighted us all with made from scratch breads and pastas, fresh fruits, salads, and items like sushi and oysters (to be honest, I was not a guest delighted by sushi and oysters, but many were🤣)!

And to top it off, the dessert selections and the Gelateria and Creperie kept my sweet tooth satisfied.

If you hesitate to cruise because you expect mass produced food selections, the chefs on board Explora will treat you to high quality cuisine that is both lovely and delicious!

Over the next week or two, I will be posting more specific information about Explora Journeys, a new luxury cruise experience. I thoroughly enjoyed my sailing and can’t wait to share!

All staterooms are oceanfront, and my Ocean Grand Terrace Suite did not disappoint! From the heated marble floors in the bathroom to the coffee/tea station, comfort and luxury abound!

Stay tuned for other suite types, which I will share soon. And if you are interested in learning even more, please message me so that I can invite you to an exclusive online event with Explora Journeys hosted by the Signature Travel Network!

On a journey with Explora, you will visit some off-the-beaten-path locations. For us, the town of Astoria, Oregon was a delightful stop. We enjoyed everything from the natural beauty to the local coffee shops to the fun film locations (Gen Xers will remember Goonies, Short Circuit, and Kindergarten Cop). We loved the opportunity to visit such a charming location!

Welcome Aboard Explora I! Explora Journeys is a new, family-owned cruise line, offering an elevated experience that is more like a relaxing boutique hotel than a cruise line. All staterooms are oceanfront and filled with thoughtful details like heated marble floors in the bathroom and walk-in closets. Stayed tuned for more this week as I enjoy this Journey on Explora I!

We are already well into 2024, but I want to take the time to thank all of my wonderful clients for making 2023 a great year. Not only did I have the opportunity to assist with your amazing vacations, I reached Platinum Producer level in the MEI-Travel Star Club. Thanks to all of you for trusting with me your personal memories and also for referring me to your fiends and family. That is a high honor, and I am truly grateful. I look forward to assisting with your plans in 2024 and beyond!!!

Take time for a getaway! After four days of warm sunshine aboard Celebrity Silhouette, my husband and I are refreshed and relaxed (kind of—I am VERY bad at relaxing 🤣). We are headed back to reality but highly recommend a dose of vitamin sea during these cold winter days!

The sun is setting on 2023! This was a momentous year for my family as my son Andrew married his beautiful bride Abby on August 5th and my daughter Emily graduated high school and started college. We celebrated these events with cruises and land vacations to places like Alaska, Mexico, London, and Paris! I hope your vacation memories from 2023 will always remind you of special times spent with family and friends, and I hope you are already thinking about 2024 and beyond. Whether you are dreaming of a European river cruise, a Caribbean getaway, or bucket list destination like Australia or Antarctica, I am excited to be your teammate in the planning process!

HAPPY 2024!

May your experiences this holiday season be your treasured memories of the future. Merry Christmas!!!
