Jamaica photo dump! 🇯🇲📸❤️

Another Envoyage North America Conference in the books, and what a week!

Learning, reconnecting with familiar faces, making new friends, connecting with our amazing supplier partners, and experiencing more of what Jamaica has to offer.

One of the most meaningful moments was visiting the Green Island library and school, spending time with the children, and delivering donated books and school supplies. ❤️

We also had the chance to explore Beaches Negril and The Cliff Hotel, so stay tuned for more on those!

Thank you to Princess Grand Jamaica for the hospitality and to Envoyage Travel for the opportunities to continue learning and growing in an industry I love.

But what I’m most grateful for? The people. The friendships, the connections, and the incredible colleagues who have become such an important part of this journey. ❤️

Eight weeks of travel, countless memories, and SO much more to share!

My suitcase might be overweight, but this time it’s for a pretty good reason! 😂🧳✈️

Off to Jamaica today for the Envoyage North America Conference! 🇯🇲🌴

Being a travel advisor is about more than beautiful resorts and amazing vacations. It’s about experiencing destinations firsthand, connecting with local communities, and understanding the people and cultures that make each place special. ❤️

One experience I’m especially looking forward to? Giving back!

We’ll be visiting Green Island Library and Primary School to help build and paint benches, read with students, and donate books and school supplies. 📚🖍️

Hence the VERY full suitcase! 😂

I’ll also be touring resorts, meeting with travel industry partners, and bringing home firsthand knowledge to help my clients experience the best of Jamaica.

Because great travel planning starts with truly knowing the destination, not just the resorts. ❤️

Follow along! There’s so much more to Jamaica than its beautiful beaches. 🇯🇲

There is so much more to Dubai than skyscrapers and shopping. 🇦🇪

On my first full day, we visited Al Farooq Omar Bin Al Khattab Mosque and learned more about Islam and Emirati culture.

A few things I learned while we were there:

Muslims pray five times each day, with prayer times connected to the position of the sun.

We removed our shoes before entering, and women needed to be completely covered, including our hair. Abayas were provided for us here.

Inside the men’s prayer hall, our guide explained how the markings in the carpet help worshippers line up during prayer. The women’s prayer area is separate and upstairs.

And that ceiling. 😍

Beautiful architecture is one thing. Understanding a little more about why things are done the way they are is what made this experience memorable for me.

Would you visit a mosque to learn more about the culture while traveling in Dubai?

Airport Etiquette 2.0 ✈️

Can we talk about baggage claim? 😂

Why do we all need to stand RIGHT against the carousel waiting for our bags?

And even better…when you’re already standing there waiting and someone walks up and plants themselves directly in front of you.

Like…hello? I’m standing here. 👋😂

Hear me out.

If everyone takes a few steps back, we can all see the luggage coming. When you spot your bag, step forward, grab it, and move out of the way.

Instead, you see your suitcase coming and have to weave through a wall of people just to get to it. And sometimes your bag gets another free trip around the carousel. 🤦‍♀️

Can we collectively agree to give the baggage carousel a little breathing room?

Okay, tell me I’m not alone. 😂 What’s your biggest airport pet peeve?

Sometimes the places that surprise you most are the ones you never really expected to visit. ❤️

Dubai wasn’t necessarily a destination that had been at the top of my list. But this trip has reminded me why I love experiencing new destinations and cultures with an open mind.

The people. The food. The conversations. The culture. And moments that look completely different from anything you’ve experienced before.

Yesterday, watching the sun set over the Dubai desert, I had one of those moments where you just stop and take it all in. 🌅

This was the icing on the cake of this trip for me so far.

After all these years of traveling, I love that there are still places capable of completely surprising me.

Sometimes the destination you weren’t looking for becomes exactly the experience you needed. ❤️

Funny how one little book can change your life. 🌎

This passport has taken me to places I once only dreamed of seeing.

It’s introduced me to new cultures, incredible people, different foods, unforgettable experiences, and a world much bigger than the one I knew.

And somehow, after 15+ years in travel, pulling it out at the airport still makes me excited.

I snapped this yesterday just before boarding my flight to Dubai. 🇦🇪

Another new place. Another culture to experience. Another reminder of just how much travel has shaped my life.

And I’m definitely not done yet. ❤️

One thing that surprised me about my Viking river cruise through Bordeaux, France? 🛳️🇫🇷

How little scenic sailing we actually did.

On other European river cruises I’ve experienced, some of my favorite moments have been sitting up on deck watching villages, vineyards and countryside go by.

Bordeaux felt different.

And there’s a reason. 👀

Bordeaux sits on a tidal river, and this itinerary stays relatively close to the city throughout the week.

The tradeoff? That tidal river also means you don’t have the same low water concerns that can affect some other European rivers during the summer.

That’s why I keep saying the itinerary matters just as much as the river cruise line.

If you love w**e, want to really dive into the Bordeaux region and prefer a slower pace, this itinerary could be a great fit.

If scenic sailing and waking up somewhere new are a big part of what you picture when you think about a European river cruise, I might point you somewhere else.

When you picture river cruising in Europe, how important is the scenic sailing to you? 👇

Unpopular opinion: You don’t have to take every included excursion on a river cruise. 👀🛳️

Sometimes I want the guided tour. Sometimes an optional experience is absolutely worth it.

And sometimes I just want to walk off the ship and see where the streets take me. 🇫🇷

That’s one thing I love about European river cruising. You can have the structure when you want it and still make room to explore on your own.

There’s no prize for doing everything. 😂

Which traveler are you?

👣 Give me the guided tour
🗺️ Give me the map and let me go
🤷‍♀️ A little of both

Apparently they sell my biography in Bordeaux. 😂📚

Walked into a bookstore, spotted Annie Knows Everything and obviously… I bought it.

I mean, how was I supposed to leave this behind? 😂

Do I actually know everything? Absolutely not.

Travel, though? I know a thing or two. 😉✈️🌍

Sometimes the best souvenirs find you.

Today, we remember.

We remember the lives lost, the heroes who ran toward danger, the families forever changed, and the way our country came together in the days that followed.

25 years later, we still remember. We still honor. We will never forget. 🇺🇸
