These are the recs I used to cultivate healthy relationships in my life. Its been a huge work in progress and every day I work on this, starting with my relationship to myself. I don't know how many times I used these recs but its alot! The change started first with me.
Airports sell the same mass-produced keychains everywhere now — if you actually want pieces with real history baked in, the hunt gets harder every year. This list is for collectors, nostalgia addicts, and anyone who'd rather display a 1960s airline bag than another fridge magnet. I spent years digging through flea markets and online listings so you can skip straight to the good stuff — but fair warning, these kinds of finds don't sit around long.
In 2024, my friends and I went on a little spontaneous trip to Liwliwa, Zambales during the Holy Week. I’ve compiled a few recommendations should you want to go and visit!
Walking into Adelaide Central Market without a plan is how you end up spending $80 on random cheese samples and missing the actually incredible stalls. I spent three full days eating my way through every aisle so you can skip the tourist traps and hit the spots locals actually line up for. Print this before your trip.
Living in Ibiza means being slightly spoiled when it comes to beaches. These are the ones I love most, a mix of quiet little coves, local favorites and a few hotspots that are popular for a reason.
Since it was my first time taking my 7 year old to Magic Kingdom, I had no idea what to expect. I found that she was overwhelmed by the sheer size of the park. The items in this list are the things we did that she most enjoyed, which was mostly the rides. She was not scared of any of the big rides, which really surprised me. My list is for your adventuresome child!
Cruises out of New Orleans usually head to some mix of Cozumel, Costa Maya, Progreso, Belize, and Roatán. Cozumel and Roatán already have their own sections on my Caribbean shore excursions list (linked below), so this one covers the rest, plus the best ways to spend a day in New Orleans before you board. Fly in a day early, baby. Watching your ship sail off while you're stuck at the airport is not the vacation you paid for. And since booking on your own isn't the same as booking through the ship, check each tour's end time against your all-aboard time and leave yourself a cushion.

Having a bedside cart has been the most lifesaving thing for me during postpartum! I have everything I need for night time I never even leave my room throughout the night!
On certain days the clothes and the shoes are what gets me to the gym. If I didn't carry them with me I would certainly just go home. So this section is a must for motivation. Reminding me if I don't go, my backside will regret it.
Walked into a Roman trattoria on my first night, ordered a cappuccino after dinner, and the waiter looked at me like I'd committed a crime. Spent two weeks learning the hard way what not to do — wrong drinks, wrong timing, wrong everything. If you're planning your first Italy trip and don't want to burn through euros on tourist-trap meals while locals eat better for half the price, steal my painful lessons before you board that plane.
For me having limitations with what I can consume can be a bit of a challenge! Having options like smoothies and tasty treats is always something I love so I compiled them to refer to them easily.
Only one bed, one cabin, one very annoying roommate… forced proximity is my comfort trope, and every book here is one I've actually read and rated 4 or 5 stars. No slow burns (I don't have the patience, I have kids 😅), just two people stuck together until the tension breaks. Sorted by vibe, so grab a rom-com, a romantasy or something darker.Heads up: some links here are affiliate links, so I may earn a little if you buy, at no extra cost to you.

This makeup is truly the BEST for people with a lower budget or for people who don't want to go broke for great quality products! Of course some of this is a little higher but I've found that the ones that may be a bit more pricey last me quite a long time, so I wont hold those back as they are the best budget options in the long run! I always want to be as upfront as I can especially as a broke girly myself!
