Packing list season. A few things I never travel without — full list (with the actual products) is in my shop if you want to steal my packing habits.

If you're the type who likes to book your own excursions instead of doing a big planned itinerary, I've got a direct link for booking tours/activities — no middleman, just straightforward booking. Link below if that's more your speed.

Someone once asked me how I keep track of every HHN house every year. Answer: I follow a ridiculous amount of Facebook Groups and TikTok pages dedicated to Universal and Horror Nights specifically. 🤷

Everyone asks me the same thing about HHN..."what do I actually need to know before I go?" So I wrote it all down... houses, food, crowd timing, the stuff that matters. $4, link is below, cheaper than the popcorn bucket you'll buy anyway.

Midweek project: reorganizing my HHN notes because apparently I have opinions about maze flow now. This is what happens when a hobby becomes a whole thing.

Still sitting on 'we should book a trip' energy without actually booking anything? Send me where you're thinking (or even just 'somewhere warm, idk') and I'll put together a free quote so you at least have something real to look at. Comment below :)

Random but useful: if you've got a Sam's Club membership (or have been thinking about one), there's a 50% off deal running right now through my link. Doesn't even have anything to do with travel really, just a good deal I didn't want to sit on without sharing.

If you're going to HHN this year and you DON'T have a house strategy yet, you're gonna waste your first hour in line instead of screaming. Full house-by-house breakdown is in my $4 guide, link in bio or snag it below. Saves you hours of Googling forums at midnight.

I have about 4 browser tabs open right now for a client's Florida trip and I still haven't decided on their hotel. Anyone else's "quick planning session" turn into a 2-hour rabbit hole?

Marvel Island at night = underrated gem ⚡🌃

High energy, lit-up skyline, and a photo op at every turn. If you haven’t walked it after dark, you’re missing out.
