A New (Snow)bird’s-eye View of Palm Beach County

by
I think I’m too young to be a snowbird. But after years of talking about it, we did it. We purchased property in Florida. So, I guess I’m now a Palm Beach County snowbird and I’m here to share a few of my favorite things about PBC with you! How We Got Here For years my husband I would have the Miami versus Boca (our go-tos) debate as to where we wanted to be during the cold weather months up north. Although we love Miami  ...

24(ish) Hours at Miraval Berkshires

by
One day in January, I found myself in a rare situation- both my husband and daughter had plans and I had none. I had been wanting to check out the Miraval Berkshire Resort & Spa since it opened a year ago.

Bittersweet Birthdays

by 2 Comments
I am an all-in birthday girl. I LOVE my birthday. I love celebrating my birthday. I think everyone should celebrate their birthday for their entire birth month. But the birthday DAY has to be special. Growing up, birthdays were not spectacular celebrations or reasons to travel. Birthdays were usually family in our backyard, or if it rained, in our garage.

Nantucket, Summer’s Siren Song

by 2 Comments
There is a magical island off the coast of Massachusetts that calls to me every summer. It is old and small and the streets are uneven and yet its siren song is irresistible.

Fashionable Memories and My Favorite Place to Find Them

by
I am a planner. I really enjoy planning travel and for me that includes everything from restaurants to outfits.
