Most retired couples don't need more included sightseeing. They need more time to enjoy where they are.

I know that sounds almost backwards in a world where travel itineraries are often marketed by how much you can “see and do.”

But here's what I want my retired clients to think about:

What if your vacation didn't need to be packed?
What if you could have a leisurely breakfast instead of rushing out the door?
What if you could sit at a café and watch the world go by?
What if you had time to linger over lunch?
What if you could wander down that little street that wasn't on the itinerary?
What if you actually had time to enjoy the beautiful resort you paid for?
And what if you didn't need to feel guilty about spending an afternoon doing absolutely nothing?

That's not wasted vacation time.

That's the vacation. ❤️

When I plan travel, I'm not just looking for the itinerary with the most included tours and excursions.

I'm thinking about pace, energy, interests, accommodations, transportation, and how you want to feel when you come home.

Especially for a milestone trip or retirement celebration, I want the itinerary to feel like something you're excited to experience—not something you need to recover from.

Because you've worked hard.

You don't need to rush through your dream vacation.

If you're dreaming about a big trip in retirement, send me a message. Let's build something that gives you time to experience the destination—not just check it off a list.

Our next Disney World vacation is getting closer and we're finalizing the table service restaurants we'll be making reservations for.

My kids are currently 10-13 and they've been doing Disney on the regular since they were 0-2. We've done virtually every restaurant.

What are we planning for the next trip?! Nothing new actually. I've let my kids call all the shots and these are the 3 table restaurants that are their must dos [plus a non Disney World restaurant that we'll also be dining at during the trip]

1. Kona Cafe: We practically live at the Polynesian and this restaurant is a fan favorite. Prices are reasonable. Braiden likes the kids sushi dinner and then the rest of us share real sushi. In the past, we're tried breakfast and it's great. We just prefer dinner.

2. Boma: We've stayed at Animal Kingdom Lodge THREE TIMES and never ate here during those trips. Since then, we've eaten here twice and absolute love it. We do BRUNCH. They have the regular Disney breakfast options, plus some pretty neat African options. We love it!

3. Via Napoli: We did this maybe on the first trip in 2015. Then last year, we rediscovered it and dined here twice in the single trip. We love it! There's one pizza in particular we order and we keep talking about it.

4. Wind and Waves: This is NOT at Disney World, but it's at DISNEY'S VERO BEACH. This is our third trip to Vero and our first time attaching to a Disney World vacation. Typically we come here on a separate beach vacation. Wind and Waves is ultra reasonably priced and has some amazing options. The KEY LIME MICKEY WAFFLES is a personal favorite. Vero was a dream of mine forever and as we approach our third visit, I'm confident that this is my personal favorite Disney resort.

When my kids were little, we did way more character meals. Infants were FREE. Now, they're considered adults. Our choices combine personal preferences and price. We've done meals in the $400 range and I just can't keep that up with as much travel as we do.

We might a few more table service. Hollywood and Vine has grown on our list and then I'm also thinking about Liberty Tree.

With all the options, it can be hard to navigate. Maybe our favorites aren't yours?
That's okay!

We love all the restaurants, but this is our favorites that we're planning on doing during out next trip.

Moms, you do NOT have to be an expert camper to take your kids camping. ❤️⛺

White Pines State Park in Illinois had been on my radar for a while because of the "lodge". It's what originally caught my eye, and yes, we did eat there during this trip!

But this time, we decided to do something a little different.

We camped. In a tent. With the kids.

And this was one of my first times camping with my kids on my own.

I'll be honest — that felt like a pretty big deal to me.

But White Pines ended up being such a great starter camping experience.

It's relatively close to home, so we didn't have to turn it into a huge expedition just to get there. And one of my favorite parts? We could hike right from our campground. No loading everyone back into the car. No figuring out where to go next. We could wake up, step outside, and start exploring.

And that is exactly the kind of camping I want to encourage more moms to try.

You don't have to start with a week in the wilderness.

You don't need the fanciest gear.

You don't have to know everything about camping.

Start close to home. Start with one night. Pick a campground with things your kids will enjoy. And give yourself permission to figure it out as you go.

Because camping with your kids isn't just about sleeping in a tent.

It's about waking up outside.
Getting dirty.
Going for a hike.
Eating meals together.
Letting the kids explore.

And creating the kind of memories they might remember long after they've forgotten what hotel you stayed in.

If I can take three kids camping by myself, you can probably do this too.

White Pines was a great reminder that adventure doesn't have to be far away to count.

Moms, would you take your kids camping for one night? ⛺👇

Solo travelers, that reduced supplement may be distracting you from a much bigger question.

“How much does it cost for me to travel alone?”

That's an important question.
But it's not the only one.

Because I've seen travelers get so focused on finding the lowest single supplement that they forget to ask whether the actual trip is a good fit for them.

And when you're traveling solo, how the trip feels matters.

Do you want a fast-paced itinerary where you're changing hotels every couple of nights?

Or do you want to settle in somewhere and really experience the destination?

Do you want lots of planned activities and opportunities to meet people?

Or are you dreaming about quiet mornings, long lunches, and doing exactly what you want?

Would you enjoy a small-group experience?

Would you rather have a private guide?

Does the room configuration matter to you?

How much alone time do you actually want?

Those questions can matter far more than whether the single supplement is 25% or 50%.

And I'm not saying a reduced supplement isn't valuable—it absolutely can be.

I'm saying don't let the discount choose your vacation for you.

The goal isn't simply to find the cheapest trip for one person.

It's to find the right trip for YOU.

If you're thinking about traveling solo and aren't sure which type of trip or itinerary would fit you best, send me a message. That's exactly the kind of thing I can help you sort through. ❤️
