Have you ever thought about adding a holiday party to your trip?✨🎄

🎅 Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party has the parade, fireworks, cookies, and “snow” on Main Street—all those classic Christmas feels.

🥂 Jollywood Nights is a little more glitz and glam, with festive shows, fun food and drinks, and an excuse to dress up!

Which sounds more like you—cozy Christmas magic or a little holiday glitz?

Separate party tickets are required, and availability varies by date.

The Candlelight Processional at EPCOT might just be my very favorite experience at Disney.

The Christmas story, the choir, the orchestra…it’s such a beautiful reminder of what we’re celebrating. ❤️🎄

Which narrator would you love to see? Josh Groban is at the top of my list!

My family absolutely loves Disney with a little extra Christmas sparkle! ✨🎄

Main Street dressed for the holidays, twinkling lights, festive treats, warm hugs…such a fun way to get into the Christmas spirit!

Thinking about a family adventure or a grown-up getaway? Mid-November or December could be the perfect time. I’d love to help you plan a little holiday magic!

Your credit card may include some travel protection—but is it the coverage you really need if the unexpected occurs?

I’ve had clients use their travel insurance when unexpected things happened, and I’ve seen firsthand how valuable that protection can be.

My goal isn’t to tell you what coverage to choose—it’s to make sure you understand your options so you can make an informed decision and have the protection you need for your trip.

Sometimes vacation is about doing ALL the things—seeing the sights, exploring new places, and making the most of every minute. ✈️🏰🍷

And sometimes, it’s about slowing down and enjoying the simple moments… a comfy bench in the village center, a beautiful view, a quiet morning coffee, or just being together with the people you love. ❤️

I think there’s something pretty special about both.

Whatever your idea of the perfect vacation looks like, I’d love to help you create a trip that feels like you. ✨

Perfectly said. ❤️

Travel not to escape life, but to discover—or maybe rediscover—who you are, where you came from, and who you are called to be. Sometimes, getting away is exactly what we need to find our way back to ourselves.

While travel is often considered an escape from the heavy or tedious realities of life, the true pleasure of travel lies in the journey of self-discovery it offers.

I just finished One Italian Summer and, naturally, I’m now dreaming about Italy. 🇮🇹🍷

There are so many ways to explore Italy, so here’s just one idea to get your Italian dreams started, too:

🍝 8 days | Rome → Rome
🇮🇹 Starting at $2,399 per person

This one is all about the food, w**e, history, and slower moments that make Italy so easy to fall in love with.

A few highlights:

🍝 Dinner at legendary Alfredo Restaurant
🥐 Exploring Rome’s historic Jewish Ghetto
🏛️ Discovering Tiber Island
🌿 Day trips to Civita di Bagnoregio & Orvieto
🍷 Exploring the Castelli Romani w**e region
🥂 Farewell lunch at a local w**ery

And I love that there’s leisure time in Rome, too—because some of my favorite travel moments are wandering down a street, finding a little trattoria, stopping for an espresso, and seeing where the day takes you.

What's your dream Italian summer? 🇮🇹❤️

While I’m still enjoying the vacation after-glow, so I thought I’d share a little more information about Viking. 😊

Tom and I had an amazing time, and I came home with plenty of thoughts on what I loved, who I think Viking is a great fit for, and what to consider if a river cruise has piqued your interest.

More importantly, if you’d like to see whether Viking might be a good fit for you and your travel style, reach out! I’d be happy to help.

If you’re curious about Viking, you can find some helpful information here:

A little travel inspiration for your weekend! ✈️🌍

The latest issue of my Travel Magazine is out, and it pairs perfectly with a hot cuppa and a beautiful Saturday morning. ☕️

I especially love that this issue has a little bit of everything—Europe, river cruising, food & w**e, and plenty of ideas for your next getaway.

If something catches your eye, I’d love to help you turn the idea into your next adventure. ❤️
