✈️🌎 One of my bucket list adventures… SOLO TRAVEL! 💕✨

One thing I would absolutely LOVE to do someday is take a trip completely on my own.

I know so many people who have travelled solo and absolutely LOVE it — and the more I hear about their experiences, the more I understand why. ❤️

There’s something pretty incredible about going somewhere new and having the entire experience be YOURS.

✨ Time to reflect
✨ Time for personal growth
✨ Going wherever you want, whenever you want
✨ Not being tied to anyone else’s schedule
✨ Stepping outside your comfort zone
✨ And maybe meeting some amazing new friends along the way 🥰

Want to sleep in? Sleep in.
Want to spend the entire day on the beach? Do it. 🏝️
Want to book an excursion, explore a new town, sit at a little café for hours, or change your plans completely? You can!

I think there would be something so freeing and empowering about realizing that you don’t have to wait for someone else to be ready to see the world. 🌎💕

And honestly, I think sometimes getting away from the noise of everyday life and spending some time with yourself can be exactly what you need.

Solo travel is DEFINITELY on my bucket list. ✈️✨

Have you ever travelled solo?? Did you love it? And where would you recommend for a first solo trip?! 👇🥰

🌴✈️ ANOTHER COUPLE IS LOCKED IN FOR JANUARY!! 🇩🇴☀️

And I am SOOO excited for these two!! 😍

They are officially heading to Dreams Cap Cana Resort & Spa in the Dominican Republic this January! 🌴🍹

And even better… their original price DROPPED!! 🙌💰

And DREAMS CAP CANA?! 😍😍

This resort is absolutely gorgeous. Beautiful beach, gorgeous pools, great food and drinks, beautiful rooms, tons to do and that upscale Dreams feel without being stuffy. It’s in Cap Cana, one of the most beautiful areas of Punta Cana, and I seriously think they are going to LOVE it. 🌊🌴🍹

January in Nova Scotia… or January sitting by a pool in the Dominican with a drink in your hand?

Easy choice. 😂☀️🍹

I am still growing this little travel business of mine, and every single person who books with me, shares my posts, recommends me to a friend or sends someone my way means more than you know. 🥹❤️

So THANK YOU to another wonderful couple for trusting me with your January getaway. I am so grateful for your support and SO excited for you both!!

Now these two officially have something pretty amazing to look forward to this winter!!

Who’s next?! 👀😂

If you’ve been thinking about getting away this winter, send me a message! Let’s see what we can find. ❤️✈️

🇨🇦🇺🇸 LET’S TALK ABOUT THE U.S. FOR A MINUTE…

There’s no question that the relationship between Canada and the United States is complicated right now. With everything happening politically and the ongoing tariff situation, I completely understand why some Canadians are choosing to take a break from travelling south of the border.

And that’s okay. ❤️

But politics aside… the United States is a HUGE country, and there are some pretty incredible places to visit this fall and winter. ✈️🌎

As a travel advisor, I’m not here to tell you where you should or shouldn’t travel. I’m here to help you find the trip that makes sense for YOU.

So if the U.S. is still on your travel list, here are a few places I’d have on my radar:

🍂 NEW YORK CITY
Fall in NYC? YES PLEASE. 🍎🗽 Broadway, incredible restaurants, shopping, Central Park, holiday markets and all the Christmas magic once winter rolls around. NYC goes all out for Christmas!

🎃 SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS
If you LOVE fall and Halloween, Salem needs to be on your list! 👻🕷️ Think spooky history, witch trials, haunted tours, fall foliage, cute shops, cafés and ALL the Halloween vibes. 🍂🎃

🎃 ORLANDO, FLORIDA
Perfect for families, theme parks, shopping and a little sunshine when we're craving it most. ☀️🎢

🌴 MIAMI & THE FLORIDA KEYS
Sunshine, beaches, nightlife, amazing food and that tropical feeling without leaving the U.S. 🍹🌊

🎶 NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE
Live music, great food, honky-tonks and SO much personality. 🎸🤠 Perfect for a girls' trip, couples getaway or weekend escape.

🌵 ARIZONA
Scottsdale, Sedona and the Grand Canyon. Beautiful scenery, sunshine and a completely different landscape from what we're used to here in Canada. ❤️

🎺 NEW ORLEANS
Food. Music. Culture. History.
If you want something totally different, New Orleans delivers. 🎷🍤

🐻 ALASKA
Okay, hear me out… Alaska isn't exactly where you go to escape the cold! 😂❄️ But if adventure is your thing, it is absolutely incredible. Think glaciers, mountains, wildlife and breathtaking scenery. 🏔️🐋

🌺 HAWAII
Yes, it's a longer trip — but if you're looking for warm weather, beaches, beautiful scenery and a true bucket-list vacation, Hawaii deserves a spot. 🌴🌊

🍁 VERMONT & NEW ENGLAND
For the fall lovers! 🍂 Gorgeous fall colours, charming towns, cozy inns and that perfect autumn road-trip feeling.

🏖️ CALIFORNIA
San Diego, Los Angeles, Palm Springs, San Francisco… there is SO much to see and do. ☀️🌴

And honestly, that's what I love about travel.

You don't have to agree with a country's politics to appreciate its people, its landscapes, its food, its culture or the experiences waiting there.

Everyone gets to make their own decision about where they spend their vacation dollars — and I respect that. ❤️

My job is simply to help you travel where YOU want to go.

So if you're thinking about a U.S. trip this fall or winter, don't be afraid to ask me what your options are. ✈️🇺🇸

Politics aside… there are still some pretty amazing places to see. 🌎❤️

I am SO excited to officially have this group of 8 LOCKED IN for Jamaica this February!!! 🎉✈️☀️

And if you know me, you know I LOVE Riu Ocho Rios! ❤️ I stayed here last January and had such a great time. There’s always something going on, but there’s also plenty of space to kick back, relax and enjoy the beach when you want some downtime.

🌴 Beach days
🍹 Pool days
🎶 Music & entertainment
🍽️ Lots of food options
💃 Nightlife
