Yesterday was World Cross Stitch Day, but every day is that for me! It’s something I can do to relax and take with me even while I travel. What do you enjoy doing to pass time or relax?

You can be assured that I also include embassy information for your destination on your travel documents!

Something that should be on your to-do list before EVERY international trip: Sign up for the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) at step.state.gov.
STEP is a free service to keep Americans informed of any known safety or security issues in the area during your trip. It also makes it easier for the U.S. embassy to contact you in an emergency.

It's been a minute since I've posted a Helene update. Recovery and rebuilding is continuing in Western North Carolina.

Today I'm sharing info from Explore Asheville. There is a list of locations reopening and travel information. While you should plan ahead before visiting our beautiful mountain areas, we do need you to travel! WNC relies on tourism in the fall!

As always, if you want to find ways to help the area, please reach out! I'm happy to connect you to organizations I know who are keeping dollars right here in our mountains.

The Asheville area is reopening in stages and pockets. As of October 19, Visit NC’s travel update page, using data from state departments of safety and transportation, has designated Buncombe County, Asheville and Black Mountain as safe to visit, with a recommendation to “plan ahead.” Weavervi...

I am back in the office today for a full day, the first time since Sept. 26. It feels weird, y'all. And a little wrong, when so many others are still struggling just to find their footing on normal day-to-day.

I am resuming sending out travel information and reminders to my clients today as well. As I am doing so, I am also praying for their well-being and safety. Even if all you lost was power and cellular, Helene was profound.

So as I get back to business as usual, please know that nothing is usual as I go about my day. My heart and soul are still aching for friends who have witnessed first-hand the devastation brought to their communities by Helene. I will be continuing to find ways to help and support them and the rest of my beloved Western North Carolina.

I'm including one of my favorite photos from Chimney Rock that was taken when I was pregnant with my oldest son. I immediately thought of this picture after seeing the photos of the devastation in that area. Just as I was close to the birth of something (someone!) amazing, I firmly believe that Western North Carolina will recover and come back stronger than ever from this event.

If you're looking for ways to support Western North Carolina, please message me! I am happy to connect you with organizations who are making a difference.
