I'll be honest: I'm a nature person and a foodie at heart — museums were never the main event for me.

Then came the Musée d'Orsay, a last-minute Paris decision. My husband stood before a painting that had inspired his own art when he was young, and he cried. I fell for the Monets and the Van Goghs.

The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam? I've been twice, and I cry every time. At the Louvre, the Mona Lisa was wonderful — but the Egypt wing stole my heart, and we ended the day with French pastries and a lovely lunch.

Museums bring you into a place like nothing else. Today is Go to an Art Museum Day — has a museum ever moved you when you weren't expecting it? Tell me which one.

Black Friday looks a little different in my world.

No doorbusters. No rushing. Just a season of special offers on the journeys I love most — small ships that linger in port, river journeys that carry you through history, expeditions to the far edges, and small-group adventures that get you inside a place, not just past it.

Right now that means saving up to 45% on select voyages, complimentary stateroom upgrades, air credits, free prepaid gratuities, and deposits as low as $25 on select sailings.

Most of these limited-time opportunities close between late November and early December — so if a journey has been sitting in the back of your mind, consider this a gentle nudge.

Tell me where your heart keeps going back to, and I'll match it to the offer that fits best: https://app.tern.travel/public/forms/DJOny4DZqilc7_9WSB4pIg/responses/new

It's National Nachos Day, so let's give the chip its due. 🧀

Fun fact worth traveling for: nachos were invented in 1943 in Piedras Negras, Mexico, when a maître d' named Ignacio "Nacho" Anaya improvised for a group of hungry visitors — tortilla chips, cheese, jalapeños — and accidentally created a legend.

This was my version last week in Cozumel: a bowl of fresh, still-warm totopos and ceviche at a little local spot, straight off the dive boat. No white tablecloth. Just the kind of table where a place tells you who it is.

That's the thing about food when you travel — it's never just lunch. It's the culture, served warm.

So tell me: team classic nachos, or fully loaded?

Some trips don't just show you a place — they change how you see it.

Traveling in a small group, with local guides who live the culture instead of just describing it, is how a destination stops being a checklist and starts getting into your heart. That's the kind of travel I plan — and right now there's a limited-time opportunity to book it for less.

G Adventures special offer: up to 30% off 650+ small-group adventures worldwide — including National Geographic Journeys, Galápagos, Antarctica, and safari experiences. Book by December 4, 2026, and travel by April 30, 2027.

Tell me: if you could follow your curiosity anywhere in the world next year, where would it take you?

Civic duty: done. ✔️ Sticker earned, coffee secured.

Now back to my other favorite kind of planning — the kind that ends somewhere with your toes in the sand.

Tell me: if you could vote one place into your next trip, where wins?

There are places that don't just change your view — they change you.

Standing on deck as a glacier calves into steel-blue water. Penguins porpoising past your Zodiac. The stillness of the Arctic, where the midnight light feels like a secret the world is keeping just for you.

Antarctica and Arctic Norway are the last true frontiers — and right now there's a special offer on HX Expeditions voyages to both: an extra 5% off cabins and 10% off suites, on top of their current offers. It's a limited-time opportunity, though — bookings close November 9.

If the ends of the earth have been calling your name, this might be your sign to answer.

Would you choose Antarctica or the Arctic? Tell me in the comments — and when you're ready to start planning, begin here: https://app.tern.travel/public/forms/DJOny4DZqilc7_9WSB4pIg/responses/new

Traded Ocean Blues for Monday Blues. Traded endless vistas for computer screens and to do lists.
After travel work is hard!

11/01/2026

The last three weeks looked like a vacation.
And in some ways, they were. There were moments, memories, and stories I know I will never forget.
But underneath it, this was a season of growth — for me, and for my business.
It was an endless supply of information, ideas, and new ways to make travel better and easier for my clients. It was learning how to truly sell a destination — not from a brochure, but from standing in it. It was sitting down with partners, with suppliers, with fellow travel advisors, and creating connections that benefit my clients in ways that never show up in a picture or a video.
That part happens behind the scenes. It's the work in the background that makes it look like just a fun time from the outside.
Yes, those beautiful moments exist — I lived them, and I'm grateful for every one. But the heart of why I travel is always the same: to serve my clients better.
You do not know the importance of a moment until it becomes a memory. These three weeks gave me both.
