Who says packing light means sacrificing style? This list is all about making the most of one small carry-on - and trust me, I know what I am talking about, because the last time I paid for luggage was probably 10 years ago. This doesn't mean that you have to wear the same outfit for the whole week (though it does probably mean a laundry session in your AirBnb) but gives you significant savings from not paying for the luggage (we love to save it for all the delicious food and fun activities instead).

This curated list brings together the most useful, travel-tested gadgets I swear by — from luggage organizers to on-the-go essentials to comfort wear. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or packing for your first overseas adventure, these picks will help you travel lighter, stay organized, and feel comfortable wherever you land.raveling internationally can be a thrill — but it often comes with hassles: overstuffed luggage, long flights, jet-lag, changing climates, and unpredictable transit!

After living in New York and visiting quite a few times, I'm always trying to find new things to do. If, like me, you've completed the touristy things there are to do in the city, why not try out some of these activities on your next trip to NYC?

For years Oregon was an off-the-radar state located on the Pacific Ocean that was known mostly for Myrtle wood trinkets and wet, cold weather. Little did people know that Oregon has so much more to offer. With a rennaisance attributed much to the establishment of the wine industry, Oregon started attracting more tourists, and, as a state realized they had much more to offer than the ocean and Myrtle wood trinkets. With the advent of high tech, Oregon's population exploded, and with that, came a desire to explore and experience new things. Destinations that were once virtually unknown suddenly became top of the list stops on vacation plans and long weekend trips. Oregon has so much to offer beyond the obvious Pacific Ocean and Mt. Hood. Take a dive into some of my favorite places to go and have a great time!

Florida panhandle, known as Emerald Coast, has the most beautiful crystal clear blue waters & white sand beaches. These beaches are made of Quartz Crystal washing down from Appalachian Mountains. When you walk on this sand it feels like cool powder sugar under your feet, soft & smooth. Personally I believe the quartz crystal sand has a some healing properties. There's truly something special about this coast.

Whether you're planning a weekend getaway or looking for new spots to enjoy, these picks capture some of the best things to do, see, and taste in the Cornhusker State! Just remember, “It’s not for Everyone”.

When people say they want to “visit Los Angeles” I realize most don't quite understand what they want to get out of it, and end up disappointed stuck in traffic trying to go from hiking the Hollywood sign in the morning to Malibu for dinner (don't do this!). There is SO much to see and experience, and LA is it's HUGE. If you're not from here, it's easy to get overwhelmed, because “visiting LA” could mean anywhere between Santa Barbara and Manhattan Beach. Some recommend picking one area and staying to enjoy all the pockets of unique neighborhoods, but if you're new to the area, chances are you want to explore. You can see a lot of it with some planning (which, yes, typically revolves around the traffic). As an LA local, I've put together an itinerary that gives you the best of both worlds, where I've taken my friends and family when they visit. It's a mix of city, nature, local faves and iconic must-sees. Pick and choose from this itinerary, that includes that majestic Channel Islands, Santa Monica, Venice, Hollywood, and Malibu. Prepare for a weekend that’s equal parts coastal escape and urban excitement, crafted perfectly for you.Please note, some of my links contain affiliate links, meaning if you click on it and make a purchase through it, I receive a commission at no extra cost to you.
