WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE TRAVEL TIP?
Say YES to at least one thing you did not have planned -- whether it's an invite into someone's home for a meal, staying a few extra nights, going to see live music that you hear when exploring, or even just sitting and having a conversation with someone you meet. The power of the word yes has always lead me to the most exciting and eye opening experiences.
WHICH DESTINATIONS ARE YOU PERSONALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO VISITING AND WHY?
My list is never-ending and I'm typically looking forward to going most everywhere. My most exciting trips have come together within just days, sometimes hours before departure. I've spent 36 hours in Mexico and 70 in Southern Switzerland. I've booked a flight to both Tokyo AND Morocco just 48 hours before departure. I will say, I'd love to spend more time in Africa - there is so much to see and tourism to Africa means so much to so many, both humans and animals!
WHAT. DOES YOUR PERFECT VACATION DAY LOOK LIKE?
I try to always be up for the sunrise followed by coffee or tea while drawing a bath. I am a warm weather gal so being outdoors and sitting in the sun whether it's learning to surf, hike, riding a horse, or simply just going for a walk... I always like to fit in some type of adventure. Sunsets with rosé or a craft cocktail cannot be beat followed by dinner, dancing, and live music.
