Honeymoon

We chose to travel to the Dominican Republic because it offered the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure in a destination neither my husband nor I had visited before. The country’s reputation for stunning beaches, warm hospitality, and incredible all-inclusive resorts made it an easy choice for our honeymoon. We wanted a location where we could truly unwind, enjoy luxurious amenities, and experience a new culture together—and the Dominican Republic exceeded all our expectations.

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!

Big Cedar Lodge is America's Premier Wilderness Luxury Resort, and it lives up to it's name! We return here year after year to enjoy Winter/Spring in the Ozarks! Big Cedar Lodge has endless activities, many top-tier restaurants and a lovely spa, just to name a few of the perks!

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.

My husband is of Scottish heritage and we love the landscape of the countryside and seaside villages.

We went on our first trip to Scotland and couldn't get enough! We went back to complete more of our bucket list items in this beautiful country. We explored a couple of the same areas, but added the West Coast and South Scotland, also known as the Scottish Borders.

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.

We chose our Japan trip because we wanted a mix of culture, nature, and amazing food. Japan offered the perfect balance with vibrant cities like Tokyo and Kyoto, peaceful hot springs at a traditional ryokan in Hakone, and incredible meals from sushi to street snacks. It felt like the perfect blend of adventure and romance.

We traveled for our honeymoon.

France seemed like a romantic place to spend our honeymoon.

I chose Sri Lanka because I wanted a journey that blended vibrant city life in Colombo, tropical beach days and surfing in Weligama, and a respectful wildlife experience in Minneriya National Park. It felt like the perfect balance between culture, nature, and adventure

I traveled to Turkey for something deeper than just sightseeing — I went to reconnect. Months earlier, during an Erasmus program in Bansko, I met a wonderful group of Turkish friends who instantly made me feel welcome, understood, and supported. Our connection was effortless, and when they invited me to visit them in Ankara, I knew I had to go.

I traveled to Turkey because I wanted to experience their culture through their eyes — the food they love, the places they cherish, the everyday life they wanted to share with me. It wasn’t about checking tourist attractions off a list; it was about friendship, hospitality, and seeing a country in the most authentic way possible.

I also wanted a change of scenery — a burst of color, warmth, and adventure after months of routine. Turkey offered all of that. From the vibrant bazaars and beautiful parks to the spontaneous nights filled with music and laughter, I found myself absorbing every moment.

Most of all, I traveled to Turkey because I knew it would be meaningful. And it was. It turned into a trip filled with unforgettable memories, delicious food, heartfelt conversations, and the kind of cultural richness that stays with you long after you return home.

I went there for an Erasmus program, not knowing it would capture my heart—and draw me back three more times.
