Sometimes a place just gets you. 🌻 Once Upon A Sometimes a place just gets you. 🌻 Once Upon A Time...I lived in Italy. It seems like some weird alternate universe now, but back in 2016 I packed up my bags after my Spring Term at UF ended and set off back to Florence. The city had captured my heart the year before when I had studied abroad with the College of Journalism and Communications at UF, my new degree after switching from Theatre Arts. I had only planned to go the summer, but after some leaps, bounds, and a decision to try and take a full semester online abroad without the school knowing, I did it. I worked in the office of @FlorenceForFun doing social media and blogging, and also as one of the tour guides. I made no money. Literally one week I only ate potatoes because it was all I could afford. 🥔 💰 But I had an apartment over one of my favorite bars at the time in the center of the city. I traveled more than I ever had before, and somehow it wasn't enough. I fell in love with the world and I grew up so much (and out...pasta fo life yo) 🍝 Florence will always be a second home to me. 🖤 It's where I started my travel blog, where I learned that I didn't want a "normal" way of living. Because of moving to Italy, I had the guts to do things I didn't think I ever would. ✈️ I became a travel agent. 🛥 I joined yachting. 🧳 I traveled solo. 💗 I made some of the best friendships I've ever had (and still do have) there. 🇮🇹 Sometimes, a place really does just get you. It holds you, and captivates you. It becomes a part of you. I can never thank the city of Florence enough for everything she gave me. I ended up leaving because, well, I had to finish a few courses on campus, and I wanted to walk at my Univerity Graduation. I vowed to move back to Europe, and thankfully in 2020 I found myself doing just that, and moved - by chance and circumstance, to Palma de Mallorca, Spain. Also, I'm curious to know, how many of you were around on this account when I lived in Italy? Do you want to see more photos from my time there! This one was taken in August of 2016, when my dearest friend @cpeshh came to visit me 🧡#TheBohoDoesItaly #Florence #Firenze #ExplorateurTravel

Thankful for the breath in my lungs, the body that carries me through this thing called life, and the world on which we get to call home.

May your families not drive you completely insane today 🧡
Rise and glide! Time to mush through the mountains Rise and glide! Time to mush through the mountains with these ANGELIC puppers! 🐺 Last year I went dogsledding with @durangodogranch and it was one of the most amazing experiences! 🐕 From learning all the pups different personalities, how to hitch them to their harnesses, and yes, even learning how to drive the sled myself! 🛷 Just because Christmas is approaching doesn't mean that's when winter activities will end. 🥶In fact, they're just getting started. Snow and ski season is usually better after Christmas anyways, and we LOVE a good dogsledding sesh! Sounds like an epic Christmas Gift, doesn't it? Start thinking about your spring ski/snow trips now!

5 Travel Tips for Honeymooners in 2022! {SAVE this 5 Travel Tips for Honeymooners in 2022! {SAVE this post if you’re honeymooning in 2022, or SEND it to someone you know who is getting married!} 🌻 1. BOOK EARLY! I can’t stress this enough but things are coming to capacity already for next year, and it’s only going to continue in that direction! 2. DONT COPY SOMEONE ELSES HONEYMOON ITINERARY. Just because a Caribbean resort was perfect for one, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be going to the Maldives! Don’t copy your friends trip, make your honeymoon your own and make it special! 3. SET A BUDGET: just like you set a budget for your wedding, we recommend you set a budget for your honeymoon, and be realistic about it. If you want luxury suites in the south of France for 2 weeks, a small budget isn’t going to cut it. That doesn’t mean you can’t have a beautiful honeymoon. Advisors (like me!) are able to match your budget and vision with a destination. 4. TRAVEL WHEN & WHERE IT’S RIGHT: if you’re having a fall wedding, but want your honeymoon to be in warm sunny Italy, you’re probably not going to be leaving right away. However, if it’s important to you to leave right after your honeymoon, an alternative location maybe in order! Be open minded when it comes to dates & destinations! 5. USE A TRAVEL ADVISOR: hey, if you didn’t know, this is like, what we do, for a living. Yep I plan dream honeymoons for a living. You probably trusted a professional with your wedding, with your accounts, and your hair, why not trust an advisor with one of the most important trips you’ll ever go on 🌻 #TheBohoHoneymoon #ExplorateurTravel #ReinventTravel • • • • #adventurebride #bridegoals #engagementscenes #engagementsession #shesaidyes #intimatewedding #loveintentionally #stylemepretty #weddingwire #destinationweddingplanner #weddingideas #intimateceremony #ruralweddings #solotraveldiaries #solotravelblogger #parkedinparadise #roadtrippers #livefolk #keepitwild #liveauthentic #adventurespirit #starttheadventure #traveltogether #couplesthattravel #travellingcouple #earthcouples #inspiringwanderers via @preview.app
I never thought I would be the type of person to u I never thought I would be the type of person to use a travel advisor. But it a worldwide pandemic and a life of travel has taught me anything, it’s that you should never use absolutes! In 2021 I’ve not used one travel advisor, but the whole damn team @explorateurtravel to get through travel & border navigation in the midst of a pandemic. If you’re one of those people who always just wants to do it on their own, I get it. But sometimes, it’s too exhausting. And when you finally realize that, I’ll be here!

If you’re impulsive and you know it clap your ha If you’re impulsive and you know it clap your hands 👏🏼 👏🏼 Sometimes being impulsive is great- random trips, life changing decisions, and great hats are all a benefit of my impulsive nature.😈 However the downsides are, I like to spend my money (and fast), I often act before thinking, and I sometimes get myself in sticky situations.💩 However, I’ve embraced my impulsive nature in my old age (lol) and I use it to my benefit.🧡 Surprise train journeys, road trips, and funky dresses all call my name. And hey, if I wasn’t impulsive I wouldn’t be living on a boat in Spain right now 🤷🏼‍♀️ #TheBohoDoesMallorca #TheBohoDoesSpain • • • • • #folkgrid #sollertrain #trendesoller #palmademallorca #mallorca #brides #honeymoonvibes #traveladvisor #tuggedluxury #luxurytravel #travelbug #passionpassport #wearetravelgirls #wanderfolk #folktravel #dirtybootspresets #dirtybootsandmessyhair #boholook #spiritualguidance #youngentrepreneur #entrepreneurtips #entrepreneursofinstagram #spain_vacations #turismoespaña #travelspain #kidsthattravel #familieswhotravel #parentswhowander via @preview.app
Ok hear me out…but you need to be using a travel Ok hear me out…but you need to be using a travel agent! OH PLEASE SYDNEY! I can just book online! Sure!! You can! But is it worth it? Ready below for why you should be using a travel agent 😉 1. We’ve got your back - we’re trained in the industry to know the in’s, outs, sideways, and COVID entry requirements 🙃 2. We take the stress off of you! Life, wedding planning, work, kids, whatever, life can get in the way of finding the best possible place for your ideal trip. Leave it to the professionals and our knowledge to do that! 3. It doesn’t cost you any extra. While we do have a Conceierge Service Cost, this is minimal in comparison to the hours you would spend planning your trip. We often are privy to the most economical options and best fits for your budget, that wouldn’t be known if you weren’t a part of the travel industry! 4. We love planning travel!!

When I think of Scotland I think of this - damp he When I think of Scotland I think of this - damp heather, big oceans, boots and tartan 📸 {SAVE THIS POST FOR 5 PLACES TO VISIT ON ORKNEY!} 1. Skara Brae - 5000+ years old nearly perfectly preserved Neolithic village (oldest in Europe!) 2. Standing stones of stenness- standing stones over 5m high (smaller circle but taller ones than # 3) 3. Ring of Brodgar - another set of standing stones near the stones or stenness, 21 of these still stand. 4. Maeshow- Neolithic passage tomb, this place will give you chills! (Visit on an equinox to get the full effect and have a truly once in a lifetime experience) 5. Scapa Flow- for divers and history buffs you can get some of the best & most unique diving in the world. Dive on wwi scuttled German ships. Dry suit experience required, but can be obtained in Orkney!
