Last month, I went on one of the best trips of my life. I finally had the opportunity to visit Colorado and it did not disappoint. It truly is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. Throughout the week, I kept telling my friends that it felt like I was in another world. As someone who absolutely loves winter, Colorado in January was paradise.

This year for Christmas, my family decided to take a mini vacation. In past years, we've done exotic trips like Belize and Jamaica, but due to the pandemic, we decided to stay close to home. After researching the best Christmas towns in the US, we settled on Asheville, NC. It was my first time there, so I was excited to explore. It reminded me of a smaller version of Portland, with its breweries and overall vibe. In order to see a lot of the town, as well as stay safe, we planned out an itinerary that had us both at the cabin and downtown. Below you'll find our complete itinerary and all the fun we had spending the week together.
Last month, I was lucky enough to travel to South Carolina to visit my sister and brother-in-law. I hadn't seen them since their wedding in February, so was definitely due for a visit. On past trips, we've been able to explore Charleston, going shopping and eating out. This trip was a little different due to the pandemic - there was a lot more time spent at home, rather than exploring. Flying there, my mom and I wore our masks from the minute we stepped into the airport to the minute we stepped out in Charleston. It was a very strange travel day, but so thankful safety measures were put in place to allow us to visit. The best part about our trip, though, was that my entire family got to be together for three days. We were there over Fathers Day, so my dad flew in for the weekend. It was so nice to have all of us together!
This time today, I was supposed to be sitting poolside in Las Vegas with friends, but obviously, the world had other plans. Traveling is one of my favorite things to do, so I'm currently sitting at home reminiscing on past adventures. Over the past four months, I've taken two trips to visit my best friend in Austin. The first time, I went solo and the second, two girlfriends joined. Both trips included new parts of Austin to explore, plus some true favorites. If you're planning for the next time you can travel, my complete itineraries are below.
The final day spent on our New England road trip was so much fun! I had always associated lighthouses with Maine, so when we decided to do a lighthouse tour, I was excited. We also visited an abandoned beach, a museum all about witches, and went to the movies. All the details of our last day are below.
Today, I'm sharing the next part of my epic New England road trip! Days three and four were my absolute favorite. We woke up before the sun came up, hiked the edge of a mountain, and saw some incredible views. Acadia National Park is a beautiful place, so we tried to pack as much as we could into a short time. All the details are below.
It's been a little over a month since I returned from my New England road trip. Three girlfriends and I drove the Massachusetts and Maine coast, with a stop in beautiful Acadia National Park. The first two days of our trip were spent in Massachusetts. I had never been to the state so it was fun to see two different parts, both with their own unique characteristics. Over the next couple weeks, I'm going to share our full itinerary, complete with recommendations for planning your own trip. Up first: Day 1 and 2.
Our last day spent in Banff was incredible. For the first time since arriving, we had truly perfect weather. It was sunny and seventy degrees, which was just what we needed. Not only that, but we saw one of the most photographed places in Banff and it did not disappoint. All the details of our day spent on Lake Moraine are below.
I am officially back from my trip to New England and can't wait to continue sharing my Banff adventure with you. Our third day was jam-packed with activities. We completed a ten-mile hike, soared over the national park, and had a fabulous dinner. See below for all the details.
