I originally took this trip to Panama to celebrate my friend's birthday, but it ended up becoming much more than just a celebration trip. This was the trip that set the tone for how my friend group travels today and brought us closer together. Since then, we've modeled most of our trips after the same formula for example we experience the local culture through food/drink tastings or fun classes, museums or cultural sites, fitting in at least one excursion, and ending the day with a fun local nightlife spot. It helps us get the most out of every destination we visit. Panama was the trip that started it all, and to this day it remains one of my favorite places and a destination I would happily return to.

For years, my cousin tried to convince me to visit Crested Butte.

I wasn’t sold — until she mentioned, offhandedly, that even Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had spent time there.

That little detail made me curious.

But what I discovered had nothing to do with celebrity mystique.
I found a small town as charming as it is vibrant. A kind of summer that feels undiscovered. A place that doesn’t need hype.

Most people know Crested Butte as the “Last Great Ski Town.”
What they don’t know is that it’s also the Wildflower Capital of Colorado.

February in Chicago is hard. We were craving UV, and chose Miami due to its vibrant culture and beautiful beaches.

I chose Copenhagen for a quick 3-day escape because it’s the perfect blend of cozy Scandinavian charm and easy walkability. I’d always heard about its colorful streets, relaxed atmosphere, and bike-first lifestyle, and I wanted a destination where I could slow down, explore beautiful neighborhoods on foot, and enjoy great food without rushing. Copenhagen felt like the ideal city for a short but refreshing adventure—and it absolutely delivered.

I transformed a business trip in to a soul retreat at one of the best spas in the world, Carillon Miami Wellness Resort.

We were very happy our college-age daughters’ spring break aligned with ours. Special family trip to a part of Mexico we have never enjoyed before–the paradise of Holbox!
