Landing in Punta Mita for the summer. I’ll be partially OOO but doing my annual scouting of properties while here (some I’ve seen before and some new). What properties are you curious about on the riviera Nayarit?

Postcards of Puglia.

If you feel like you’ve “done” Italy, but haven’t been to Puglia, go back. I’m already planning my next visit and I can’t wait to get you here too.

It’s my favorite day of the year in New Orleans. Lundi Gras. (Not a typo. It’s the day before Mardi Gras.)

You can usually find me bouncing to Rebirth all day while half-working on my computer, pretending to be productive.

I love this city in a way that’s hard to explain unless you grew up on St. Charles with parades rolling past (and marched in them too…high school dance team ya’ll). Marched through the Marigny in ridiculous colorful costumes. Sweated through a brass band set with a tuba in your face. Ate snowballs after school like it was a food group.

In celebration of the season, here are my favorite local stays. Save your big brands for other holidays. This is how you do New Orleans right.

Yeah, you right. ⚜️

Impressions of Adler Spa Resort Sicilia.

Slow mornings. Salt air. Long walks and soaks. Sunset saunas. Evening massages. Clean food. Hot, cold, repeat.

Built into the landscape, facing the sea, and designed for as much rest or movement as you need. Come alone or with your favorite person (I’d leave the Littles at home for this one).

Western Sicily has a quieter rhythm, and Adler leans into it fully. It’s stunning in a completely understated, unassuming way.

A few days here goes a long way.

But best make it a week just to be sure 🖤

Thanks so much to for the wonderful hospitality and to for organizing this gorgeous and rejuvenating stay 🙏🏻

To our long-time followers and new friends, here’s a snapshot of what 2025 looked like.

This year I wanted to expand our knowledge around the Mediterranean and West Asia, hitting countries in Arabia and North Africa, and seeing more of the islands in this part of the world.

We deepened our relationships and destination intel in Mexico and Europe as well as the UK.

We branched out and brought clients deeper into South America and Asia, and everywhere they went, it was always with outstanding properties at the heart of our trip curations.

We experienced sixty one properties personally to better serve our clients needs knowing exactly which ones to matchmake them to and the perfect rooms to put them in.

Something I’m so excited about has been leaning into the small cruises around the world and can’t wait to put more of you on petit boats in 2026.

We doubled our business from last year and have goals to do the same in twenty twenty-six while maintaining the high touch level of service we always give.

A big thank you to everyone reading this. I’m a social media introvert but you all make it so fun to create content and I only hope that it’s inspiring, insightful, and often makes you smile.

Do you ever think in color? I do, often, and I love using it conceptually when I’m planning trips, splashing it through the details.

Color is a fun way to match your mood to a destination when you’re not sure where to go next.

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about pink (Blossom, Pantone 489). It’s feminine, soft, a little nostalgic.

So I pulled five stays that carry that energy 👉 from island beaches to city palaces, all in places that work well for spring.
