Some soul renewing at a birthday-reunion-girls getaway on the gorgeous Oregon coastine.
We traveled to Grayton Beach, FL, after Christmas and stayed past the New Year. We wanted to have a relaxing vacation with family, without a strict schedule and be able to enjoy the beach without the crowds that summer brings!
We chose Breckenridge for my bachelorette party because it was the perfect blend of convenience and charm. Being just a short drive from the Denver metro area, it made for an easy commute for everyone in my bridal party. Breckenridge offers so much to do, from great dining options to fun activities, making it an ideal spot to celebrate. We also found an amazing VRBO that was spacious and perfect for hosting our group—it really added to the experience and made the weekend unforgettable!
When we started planning our honeymoon, we knew we wanted something intimate, scenic, and full of memories we’d carry forever. Waterton Lakes National Park sounded like the perfect spot—and let me tell you, it didn’t disappoint. Every day felt like stepping into a dreamy postcard.
Thailand has always been one of our favorite getaway destinations, especially since it’s just a short trip from where we live. Whenever there’s a long weekend, we find ourselves drawn back to this beautiful country—its perfect mix of shopping, culture, nature, and warm hospitality makes every visit special.
One of the things we love most about Thailand is how budget-friendly it is. You can indulge in amazing food, explore stunning sights, and experience luxury without spending a fortune. It’s a place that feels both modern and deeply rooted in tradition, where skyscrapers stand alongside historic temples, and vibrant markets buzz with energy. No matter how many times we visit, Thailand always has something new to offer, which is why we never miss a chance to return!
The Maldives is famous for its breathtaking white-sand beaches and mesmerizing underwater world. But did you know there are two very different ways to experience this tropical paradise?
You can either stay on a local island for an affordable, culture-rich experience or indulge in the luxury of a private island resort.
We wanted to experience both! Economically, the local island stay is much cheaper, offering charming boutique hotels, cozy cafés, and authentic restaurants—but no alcohol. While modest dress codes apply, designated bikini beaches let visitors swim and sunbathe freely.
But of course, you can’t leave the Maldives without trying the iconic overwater villa experience! We made it extra special by choosing one with a slide for our daughter, and it was absolutely worth it. Staying at a private island resort meant no restrictions—we could wear whatever we liked and enjoy a cocktail while watching the sunset over the endless ocean.
No matter the choice, the Maldives was one of an unforgettable escapes we ever did. 🌴✨
We have seen so many beautiful photos of Sri Lanka and wanted to do see what the island could offer. We couldn't be happier as we explored their jungles, safari, beach and saw its rich history. We did the famous triangle route starting in their big city, went across the other side of the island, did safari, relaxed in one of their famous beaches, explored the rich culture of Portuguese colonialism, and ate different Sri Lankan food. It was one of the best trips we have encountered.
After a whirlwind year full of planning, bridal showers, bachelor & bachelorette trips, and finally, our wedding day, my husband and I wanted to find the perfect destination to begin our life together as newlyweds. We wanted to travel somewhere beautiful, steeped in history, dotted with beaches, exciting culture, and equal opportunities for relaxation and adventure. The island of Mallorca checked all the boxes. With its stunning natural landscapes, lively cities, and delectable food - Mallorca was home to our dream honeymoon.

We had been to Exuma before for a shorter 4 night trip, and we knew we HAD to get back and stay longer. We love to visit Exuma for the beautiful blue waters and all the interactions with the wildlife, including sharks, iguanas, pigs, cats, stingrays and more!
Getting away from the cold weather and catching some sunshine !
A Thanksgiving visit to see our daughter studying abroad in Spain.
I am studying abroad for the semester in San Sebastián, Spain! There is a group of Santa Clara kids that came with me and we decided we needed a weekend getaway with some sun after a rainy week in San Seb.
Born and raised in St. Louis so this is the itinerary I recommend to my friends when visiting :)
Sedona is suuuuch a magical place! For me, Sedona feels like Eden: a true Heaven on Earth.
Whenever I need rest and rejuvenation in nature, I always venture to Sedona to recharge.
