\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Nantucket:<\/em><\/strong> I have been dreaming of visiting Nantucket for many years and finally made it! LC and I ferried<\/a> over from Cape Cod to the island for a day trip! **Favorites: Something Natural for the best sandwiches, swimming at Jettie\u2019s Beach, ice cream from The Juice Bar, browsing books at Nantucket Bookworks! <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Cape Cod<\/em><\/strong>: One of the best experiences this year was going on a whale tour! I got so teary-eyed seeing these beautiful creatures! The Cape is so nostalgic and charming! We stayed at Ocean Edge<\/a>-loved their beach and activities! **Favorites: Frosty\u2019s for lunch, Mac\u2019s Chatham Fish and Lobster-the most unique menu for a seafood restaurant! <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Delray Beach<\/a>:<\/em><\/strong> We tried out a new spot for spring break! We adored Crane\u2019s Beach House<\/a>! Such a quaint hotel within walking distance to the beach, two onsite pools and closeby to shops and restaurants! And it\u2019s pet friendly! Palm Beach is also a short drive away. **Favorites: Delray Beach Market-such a fun dinner spot with multiple restaurants and a lively atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Lost Valley Ranch:<\/em><\/strong> Our original fall break plans were cancelled due to a hurricane that hit the hotel we were planning to go to! I\u2019d heard about Lost Valley from a few online friends and decided to see if they had any last minute availability. And as it turned out-they did! We quickly traded in our swimsuits for cowboy boots. I\u2019ve never cried leaving a vacation before but this was more than a \u201dvacation\u201d-it was life changing! Being unplugged in God\u2019s beautiful creation, meeting the dearest people, sharing delicious meals with new friends, connecting and learning to trust horses-it just felt how life should feel! We can\u2019t wait to go back next summer! <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Paris:<\/em><\/strong> Of course, it\u2019s always been a dream to go to Paris! I\u2019d never been to Europe before and sharing this magical experience was my daughter was just something I\u2019ll treasure forever! So thankful to Open Invite Trips for planning this and for all the new friends we shared this trip with! **Favorites: Seeing the top of the Eiffel Tower, macaron class, Montmartre, Pink Mamma dinner<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long-time favorites<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Barnsley<\/a><\/em><\/strong>: A family favorite! We always love spending time at Barnsley, it feels like family camp! <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Old Village, Mt. Pleasant<\/em><\/strong>: The Old Village is probably my favorite spot in the US! Grabbing grilled cheese at Pitt Street Pharmacy, strolling on the Pitt Street Bridge and seeing the gorgeous views of Charleston, dinner at The Post House. You can\u2019t beat being in the lowcountry. Find my Charleston Guide here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*2023 Travel Wish List*<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

London<\/p>\n\n\n\n
